The Holiness movement in Christianity is compose of people who believe and propagate the belief that the carnal nature of humanity can be cleansed through faith and by the power of the Holy Spirit if one has had his or her sins forgiven through faith in Jesus. The benefits professed include spiritual power and an ability to maintain purity of heart (that is, thoughts and motives that are uncorrupted by sin). The doctrine is typically referred to in Holiness churches as "entire sanctification", though it was once known as "Christian perfection."
