It also includes hymns by Charles Wesley that describe the work of grace in human lives that leads to perfection in love.

It is \"holiness of heart and life.\" It is having \"the same mind . . . in you that was in Christ Jesus\" (Philippians 2:5). Christian perfection is the goal of salvation; it is the outcome of a life lived with and for God in Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 144\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.41 x 11.02 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 01, 2004\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53489463787827,"sku":"9780881774269","price":24.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/rbwoSFUVHY9780881774269.webp?v=1781524743","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/a-perfect-love-understanding-john-wesleys-a-plain-account-of-christian-perfection-expanded-edition-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
