Something Dies


13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.(Romans 8:13, ESV)



John Owen wrote a classic book in the 17th Century titled On The Mortification of Sin and he describes how we will either be actively killing sin in our life or sin will be killing us.  The apostle Paul made this clear in Romans 8 as cited above.

I have been enjoying a read of the following book that is easier to read and adapts John Owen's teaching into a shorter book...

Available at Amazon for Kindle or paperback

Another good option is this pdf that summarizes John Owens book and it contains a link to an even more detailed outline that is also very good if you want to get deeper into the topic...












Or go to the original...
