Contents:
Mildred Bangs: a brief biography -- Wynkoop's journey toward a theology of love -- The role of scripture in Wynkoop's theology -- Wynkoop's theological anthropology -- The divine-human interaction -- Wynkoop's soteriology.
Summary: This text places Wynkoop's work in its necessary historical context. Among the critical understandings that Tredoux reveals is not only Wynkoop's commitment to Scripture but also her clarity on the nature of biblical authority as the foundation of her work. This carity helped to keep the doctrine of hoiness as preached in the Church of the Nazarene from becoming truncated by parochial narrowness. This clarity also gave her freedom to see something deeper than a quantitative understanding of two works of grace but, rather, holiness as dynamic, relational maturation in the likeness of Jesus toward the goal of reflecting the image of God. I urge pastors to study this text and thereby to grow in our knowledge, understanding, and articulation of holiness and particularly of the doctrine of entire sanctification. I am grateful to Paster Tredoux for the gift of this scholarship. Jeren Rowell, District Superintendent, Kansas City District, Church of the Nazarene.
