Book Cover & Preview Text
Holiness will make you a terror to the kingdom of darkness. John the Baptist had no mansion or estate to call his own. He was a lay preacher but lived such a holy life that he was a terror to Herod.
“For Herod feared John and protected him, knowing him to be a righteous and holy man. When Herod heard John, he was greatly puzzled; yet he liked to listen to him.” Mark 6:20
Why is it that our pastors today cannot boldly correct our political and business leaders? The answer is simple, holiness has been compromised.

I heard the story of a very popular pastor who publicly criticized the president of his country. The president responded by publicly warning him that if he does not keep quiet the “skeleton in his (the pastor’s) cupboard” would be exposed.

About the Book
THE CASE FOR HOLINESS is borne out of the personal struggles of the author to live a holy life. This book will open the eyes of readers to the invaluable benefits of living a holy life and will educate the reader on why it is impossible for anyone to fulfill God's plan for his/her life without holiness.
Every child of God must strive to live a life of holiness because holiness glorifies God, and because that is what we want to do for a God who loves us, who is so merciful to our unrighteousness and, if we sincerely repent, does not remember our sins and lawless deeds any more (Hebrews 8:12). This book will not only provoke you to love God more, to seek Him more, to desire Him more, and to adore Him more than ever before. It will definitely influence, inspire and empower you to commit to pursuing the Holiness of God.
Also, this book is a must read because Holiness denies satan the access he seeks to steal, to kill, and to destroy us and those around us. Further, the bible teaches us that a new heaven and a new earth shall soon replace the present heaven and earth. The holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband is about to be revealed. In the holy city, there will be neither tears nor death, neither sorrow nor crying, neither shall there be any pain (Revelation 21:1-4). And nothing unholy shall be allowed to enter the
Therefore, for us who are preparing for that holy city, holiness is not an option but a necessity. Because “without holiness, no one can see God.” Hebrews 12:14.
