The first edition of The Riches of Holiness was published in 1936, but the book has been out of print since the last copies in stock were destroyed in the great incendiary fire-bomb attack on the city of London on December 29, 1940. Owing to war conditions I felt that the question of a reprint would have to remain in abeyance until I had a clear indication that it was the Lord's will another edition to be issued. Such an indication has now been made and in quite an unexpected manner. A Christian, unknown to me personally until recently, who read the first edition of The Riches of Holiness and now desires to encourage the circulation of literature on the truth of scriptural holiness, has very kindly offered to pay the cost of a second edition of the book on condition that the proceeds of the sales are devoted to the support of the Lord's work. It is as a result of this very generous offer that this second edition has been issued.
In the first edition of The Riches of Holiness the book was described as "A Testimony and Message" and explained that I wrote as "just a private Christian," one who works in an office in London and engages in Christian service in his spare time. I told the story of my search for the truth and experience of holiness and the steps by which the Lord had led me into spiritual blessing. The story ended about three years before the outbreak of the second world war in 1939. In this edition I continue my testimony. Certain portions of the first edition have been revised and rearranged; nearly all of chapters 13 to 16 inclusive is fresh matter not included in the first edition.
This new edition is sent forth with the prayer that the Lord may graciously use it to help some Christians to enter by faith into the enjoyment of their present full inheritance in Christ--the riches of holiness--in order that they, in turn, may become the medium of blessing to others. And so the blessing will spread and increasing praise from overflowing hearts ascend to the glory of the Lord.
I desire to express my great indebtedness to Principal D. W. Lambert for writing his valuable Foreword.
