Few authors have been misrepresented and falsely accused as much as E.W. Kenyon. This book examines the claims of his critics and provides evidence that refutes their misguided assertions. The majority of the defense of Kenyon's theology comes from his own published and unpublished works. In this way, Kenyon is allowed to respond to his critics by his own testimony regarding who really influenced him. Many influential Evangelical leaders of the late nineteenth century helped shape his theology and these men and women are given credit by Kenyon in his writings. In order for his critics to make their case, they passed over the obvious and speculated freely without evidence. It is amazing that this has passed for scholarship.

    Kenyon wrote in this same vein: "The thing that made Methodism so mighty in its early days was a continual confession of the things for which Mr. Wesley stood." Echoing Watson’s thoughts he continued, "When they stopped affirming, faith stopped growing, and believing or acting upon the Word became more and more difficult."30

    Palmer advocated what she called the "shorter way" into the experience of holiness. She taught that holiness was available, like justification, on the basis of faith alone. The necessary thing was to meet the conditions set forth in the Scriptures and then to believe the promises, accepting the Word of God alone as the evidence. Phoebe came to a conclusion regarding the Scriptures: "Whatever my feelings may be, I will believe God’s immutable Word unwaveringly, irrespective of emotions."18

    Palmer felt God had led her to see the necessity of believing without any other evidence than the Word of God. If God’s conditions were met, God was to be trusted to do His part, with or without any emotional witness. Holiness was to be accepted by faith before there was any conscious change or witness of the Spirit.
