by Wallace Thornton Jr (Foreword by), D. Curtis Hale (Author), Martin Wells Knapp (Author)

THIS SCHMUL PUBLISHING CO. EDITION IS NOT A SCANNED FACSIMILE OF A USED BOOK. It has been carefully typeset and proofread for accuracy and for easier reading by today's readers. Consequently there are no odd characters or missing text. In the allegorical tradition of "Pilgrim's Progress," this book describes the journey of the soul from the bondage of sin into the glorious green uplands of perfect love. This is a classic of Nineteenth Century holiness typological Bible interpretation. The author, the founder of God's Bible School and College, uses the history of ancient Israel's exodus, wilderness wanderings, and the ultimate conquest of the Promised Land to illustrate salvation and entire sanctification. Carrying the analogy further, he utilizes the Babylonian Captivity as a depiction of the loss of grace, and what can be done to recover the ruined estate. From the cruel whips of the Dark Pharaoh's taskmasters to the joy of spiritual freedom, "Out of Egypt into Canaan" resonates with hope and encouragement to holy liberty.
