By James Blaine Chapman
Summary
Holiness The Heart of the Christian Experience presents holiness as the heart of the Christian experience points and how to get there.
Evaluation by David Cox
I would understand that the Nazarenes are a branch off of the Holiness movement, basically tracing their basic doctrines and understandings back to John Wesley and the second work of Grace (being filled with the Holy Spirit). I would not agree with them on that main point that there is a “method” which when followed would result in holiness. True holiness is about knowing Jesus very well, and by walking with God day by day, one receives “the shining face” like Moses when he was in God’s presence. This is true holiness, seeing God reflected in me because I love Him.
Watchman Nee The Communion of the Holy Spirit is a 3 part, 15 Chapter work on various matters of the Holy Spirit. From the Deeper Life Movement

Having said that, and this is their fault, thinking that holiness can be prescribed somehow by activities, let me also say that outside of the holiness-deeper life movement, NOBODY seems even remotely “worried” about being holy. Most groups gloss over holiness like it is automatic, they are holy even though they are full of sins, or it is a non-issue.
Chapman’s book is about holiness, and outside of these people like Finney, Murray, E.M. Bounds, etc. you will be hard put to find works that concentrate on holiness, and exhort and strive with one to stress holiness in their life.
I would recommend this book.
