The Holiness movement refers to a set of beliefs and practices which emerged from 19th-century Methodism, and to a number of EvangelicalChristian denominations, parachurch organizations, and movements which emphasize those beliefs as central doctrine. The movement is defined by its emphasis on John Wesley's doctrine of a second work of grace leading to Christian perfection. As of 2015 Holiness-movement churches have an estimated 12 million adherents.
Beliefs
Holiness adherents believe that the "second work of grace" (or "second blessing,") refers to a personal experience subsequent to regeneration, commonly called "salvation," in which the believer is cleansed of the tendency to commit sin. This experience of "entire sanctification" enables the believer to live a holy life, and ideally, to live entirely without willful sin, though it is generally accepted that a sanctified individual is still capable of committing sin.
Holiness groups believe the moral aspects of the law of God are pertinent for today, and so expect their adherents to obey behavioral rules—for example, many groups have statements prohibiting the consumption of alcohol, participation in any form of gambling, and entertainments such as dancing and movie-going. This position does attract opposition from certain evangelicals, who charge that such an attitude refutes or slights Reformation (particularly Calvinist) teachings that the effects of original sin remain even in the most faithful of souls.
This lecture is presented by Bill Davis. He provides a historical look at the Holiness Movement, beginning with John and Charles Wesley's Holy Club at Oxford in England. He deals with the various influential characters which helped the movement gain traction, such as Captain Thomas Webb, Francis Asbury, B. H. Irwin, along with his Fire Baptized teaching, and whose association with Charles Parham and others led them to adjust their beliefs in radical ways. He also discusses the Azusa Street Revival and the over-the-top antics that shocked and disappointed Charles Parham on a visit and also received bad press from the LA Times. Lesson are also gathered to help us learn from the danger of extremes and the need of preserving the Word of God in its purity for further generations.

How Did the Holiness Movement Begin?
We’ve heard of Free Holiness, Congregational Holiness, Wesleyan Holiness, Apostolic Holiness, independent Holiness, and all the stories about how Church of God, Assembly’s of God, Nazarene, and Methodist “used to be Holiness.” But what does that mean? Are we all related? Yes! All the above groups share a common doctrinal lineage; our branches trace back to the same roots—the Holiness revival movement of the 1800’s. So what was the original Holiness movement about and how did it begin? These questions are answered in the video. Thank you so much for your feedback and shares!

This video is the older version. Some of the attributions are wrong, so there's a newer version that corrects them.
The first video in the "Understanding the Conservative Holiness Movement" series, "Where did the CHM come from?" traces the history of the conservative holiness movement up to the modern day.
The Holiness movement refers to a set of beliefs and practices which emerged from 19th-century Methodism, and to a number of EvangelicalChristian denominations, parachurch organizations, and movements which emphasize those beliefs as central doctrine. The movement is defined by its emphasis on John Wesley's doctrine of a second work of grace leading to Christian perfection. As of 2015 Holiness-movement churches have an estimated 12 million adherents.
Beliefs
Holiness adherents believe that the "second work of grace" (or "second blessing,") refers to a personal experience subsequent to regeneration, commonly called "salvation," in which the believer is cleansed of the tendency to commit sin. This experience of "entire sanctification" enables the believer to live a holy life, and ideally, to live entirely without willful sin, though it is generally accepted that a sanctified individual is still capable of committing sin.
Holiness groups believe the moral aspects of the law of God are pertinent for today, and so expect their adherents to obey behavioral rules—for example, many groups have statements prohibiting the consumption of alcohol, participation in any form of gambling, and entertainments such as dancing and movie-going. This position does attract opposition from certain evangelicals, who charge that such an attitude refutes or slights Reformation (particularly Calvinist) teachings that the effects of original sin remain even in the most faithful of souls.
