The Mortification of Sin

Dealing with sin in your life

John Owen

Includes an introduction from J. I. Packer
Inspiring a new generation to experience the delights of Puritan Literature.

John Owen insisted on the importance of the Christian dealing effectively with their sinful tendencies and attitudes. He believed that God, through his Word and Spirit, had provided the guidelines and the power for this to be achieved.

In this book, John Owen effectively dismisses various excuses for not engaging in self–scrutiny and yet avoids the current trend of self–absorption. In so doing he provides principles to help believers live lives of holiness.
