"Holiness" by J.C. Ryle
Banner of Truth recommends J.C. Ryle’s book: “In a most understated way he demolishes the biblical-sounding but utterly unbiblical approach of the Keswick movement which taught sanctification by faith. Seven times he raises Keswick teachings, only to respond laconically: ‘I doubt it.’ Then follows 21 essays, each based on a biblical text.”

Tyler is a pastor in Olympia, WA and works in State government.
This has been required reading for our students for years along with Horatious Bonar’s God’s Way of Holiness. You will find the edition published by Crossway especially helpful as it includes biographical information written by J I Packer. The “Gospel Sanctification/Preach the Gospel to Yourself” crowd would do well to digest these two classics.
