Some quotes from Derek Prince on holiness

SOME QUOTES FROM DEREK PRINCE ON HOLINESS

Quotes taken from an article in "New Wine Magazine" back in March 1975.

"John Wesley defined holiness as perfect love. However I prefer to define holiness as a combination of God's righteousness and God's love".

"First we are to pursue holiness—we are to make it an objective. Second,
in order to achieve holiness, we must pursue peace with all people".
(Heb 12:14)

"Christ redeems us by His blood, then He sanctifies and cleanses us by the washing of water by the Word" (1 Peter 1:2), and (Eph 5:25-26).

"Sanctification proceeds from the inside, outward; not from the outside, inward".

"The process of sanctification will only be as effective as our faith allows it to be".

"It is the new nature that each believer receives through rebirth that cannot sin". (1 John 5:18)

"The nature of the seed determines the nature of the life that comes from the seed---The incorruptible seed of God's Word produces a nature that is, like the seed, incorruptible." (1 Peter 1:23)

"This new nature is incorruptible and undefeatable. It does not sin and it cannot sin.---If I am defeated, it is because  I am not meeting my problem with the new nature.". ( 1 John 3 :9)

"Satan can only touch the old man,---the carnal nature is the legitimate prey of Satan, but he cannot touch the new nature." (Gen 3:14) NKJV

I trust these quotes from Derek will help shed some light on any discussions on holiness! They did for me!
