From the introduction:
The sermons in this volume were prepared in the rush of my regular work, with no thought of publication. The last three sermons in this volume were preached at the Revivalist campmeeting, near Cincinnati, O., in June, 1905, and taken down by shorthand reporters. After the preaching of the last one, dear old Dr. Godbey arose and put his arms around my neck, and said: “While you were preaching, God gave a message to me for you. He wants you to give a volume of sermons to the young preachers and teachers of Holiness, including the sermon you have preached this morning. I want you to grant me the privilege of writing the introduction.” This is how I came to publish this book...
The Table of Contents are as follows:
Sermon 1: DYING TO LIVE
Sermon 2: ETERNAL LIFE
Sermon 3: NOT ASHAMED OF THE GOSPEL
Sermon 4: MOCKING AT SIN
Sermon 5: A SAVOR OF LIFE UNTO LIFE, OR OF DEATH UNTO DEATH
Sermon 6: THE PERSONAL ELEMENT OF RELIGION
Sermon 7: WHAT IS MAN THAT THOU ART MINDFUL OF HIM?
Sermon 8: THE CLEANSING BAPTISM
Sermon 9: THE SECOND BLESSING IN EXPERIENCE, IN THEOLOGY, AND IN THE BIBLE
Sermon 10: RESISTING THE HOLY GHOST
About the author:
Aaron Merritt Hills (1848-1935) was an American Methodist. Raised in a Christian home, he was saved at a revival meeting at the age of eleven. After high school, he attended Oberlin College, where he became acquainted with Charles Finney.
After college, he pastored two churches over the course of sixteen years, and then entered into evangelistic work. At some point in his life, he found that he lined up more closely with the Nazarene church, and so threw his lot in with them. After a successful career (if it may be called thus) as an evangelist, he accepted the position of president at Texas Holiness University (now Peniel College).
Throughout his life, Hills wrote many great books, and contributed much to the Kingdom of God. His legacy has long survived him, and doubtless he will be remembered for generations to come.
