More quotes by John Owen
To kill sin is the work of living men where men are dead (as all unbelievers, the best of them, are dead), sin is alive, and will live.
John Owen
It is evident that you contend against sin merely because of how it troubles you.
John Owen
A man may easier see without eyes, speak without a tongue, than truly mortify one sin without the Spirit.
John Owen
Christ greatly delights in his people and they greatly delight in him
John Owen
It being our duty to mortify... we must be at work. He that is appointed to kill an enemy, if he leave striking before the other ceases living, does but half his work.
John Owen
Temptation gains power where we see it prevail in others we know and we express neither shock or hatred of them and their ways nor pity and prayer for their deliverance.
John Owen
As a tender and loving friend is grieved at the unkindness of his friend... so is it with this tender and loving Spirit, who hath chosen our hearts for a habitation to dwell in.
John Owen
Free will is corrupted nature's deformed darling, the Pallas or beloved self-conception of darkened minds
John Owen
If Scripture has more than one meaning, it has no meaning at all.
John Owen
A natural man hath no such thing as free-will at all, if you take it for a power of doing that which is good and well-pleasing unto God in things spiritual.
John Owen
A river continually fed by a living fountain may as soon end its streams before it come to the ocean, as a stop be put to the course and progress of grace before it issue in glory.
John Owen
When someone sets his affections upon the cross and the love of Christ, he crucifies the world as a dead and undesirable thing. The baits of sin lose their attraction and disappear. Fill your affections with the cross of Christ and you will find no room for sin.
John Owen
There is no death of sin without the death of Christ.
John Owen
Leanness of body and soul may go together.
John Owen
The vigour, and power, and comfort of our spiritual life depends on the mortification of the deeds of the flesh.
John Owen
The most tremendous judgment of God in this world is the hardening of the hearts of men.
John Owen
That wisdom which cannot teach me that God is love, shall ever pass for folly.
John Owen
Labour to grow better under all your afflictions, lest your afflictions grow worse, lest God mingle them with more darkness, bitterness and terror.
John Owen
The purpose of our holy and righteous God was to save his church, but their sin could not go unpunished. It was, therefore, necessary that the punishment for that sin be transferred from those who deserved it but could not bear it, to one who did not deserve it but was able to bear it.
John Owen
If a man teach uprightly and walk crookedly, more will fall down in the night of his life than he built in the day of his doctrine.
John Owen
