This is Holiness

"The Bible teaches that we can be like Jesus. We are to be like Him in separation from the world, in purity, in love, and in our separation from the world, and in the fullness of the Spirit. This is Holiness." Commissioner Samuel Logan Brengle D.D. O.F.

In answer to your questions: Commissioner Samuel Logan Brengle held the rank of Commissioner in the Salvation Army. In the back of one of his books it says: " Of colonial stock, left the security of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the uncertainties of officership in the newly born, but rapidly growing, Salvation Army.

Returned to the United States from training in England brought him his share of the persecution which was the lot of many Salvationists in the last quarter of the 19th century, and a brick aimed at his head by a rough nearly ended his life. During the convalescence which followed he started to write, since then more than a million copies of his books have been sold.

Outstanding Christian leaders such as Barclay Buxton, Archbishop Harrington Lees and John Stuart Holden have acknowledged their indebtedness to Brengle's writings, but these are also so simple in construction and style that no wayfaring man need err therein."

I am not sure as to the degrees. Usually D.D. means Doctrine of Divinity. As for O.F. I can only guess it means an Officer. :wave:
