Perfectionism
Samuel G. Craig’s one-volume abridgment of Warfield’s two-volume Studies in Perfectionism, drawn from the roughly thousand pages of the Oxford Works; it keeps the long treatment of Oberlin perfectionism — Asa Mahan, Charles G. Finney, and the development of the Oberlin theology — alongside Warfield’s critique of the later Higher Life and Victorious Life movements.
