Godliness Through Discipline

Here is a practical booklet for anyone who wants to become a more godly person. Jay Adams shows clearly that, while there is no such thing as instant godliness, genuine and lasting holiness is indeed possible. Beginning with Paul’s instruction in 1 Timothy 4:7, “you must discipline yourself for the purpose of godliness,” Adams explains how godly living can become second nature for the person who truly desires to be Christlike.
