Beulah Land

A portion from the first chapter:
Happy the man who will understand correctly his spirit hunger, recognize his real need and obtain the true relief.

Blessed is the man who discovers that it is not a material but a spiritual something he wants; not an earthly circumstance but a heavenly condition; not a terrestrial friendship but a divine love; not this man or that woman, but the indwelling Christ; not a ranch or estate, but a home and broad possession in the Land of Beulah.

In the enjoyment of holiness we thus spend our days in a country "Where the flowers bloom forever and the sun is always bright." Here we walk and talk with God, and can easily understand how Enoch did the same thing without a break for three hundred and sixty years. Here the messenger from the skies will at last find us, and with a smile and shout we will go up from a heavenly life to a heavenly world, from the kingdom of grace to the kingdom of glory.

About the author:

Beverly Francis Carradine (April 4, 1848 April 22, 1931) was an American Methodist minister, and a leading evangelist for the holiness movement. He was a productive author, writing primarily on the subject of sanctification.

He served in the Confederate Cavalry during the American Civil War, and later in his lafe studied pharmacy and also worked in a store as a clerk and bookkeeper.

Unlike many ministers, Carradine was not converted to Christianity until the age of 26. He was licensed to preach only three months later, and continued in the service of God for the remainder of his life.

He was a prolific author, and wrote more than two dozen books. Throughout his life, he was influential in the holiness movement, and continues to be a blessing generations later.
