These five essays on theology are from three "venues." Three are from the authors studies at Southern Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. One is from the submissions to the Board of Ordained Ministry of the Louisville Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church for ordination.

"An Ethical Approach to Participation in Warfare," "On Governmental Authority," "The Sacraments," and "Concept of Command."

John Wesley taught the doctrine of Christian perfection. He believed Christians could come to a state in which the love of God ruled their lives and allowed them to become outwardly holy.
