For centuries, Christians have struggled with the persistent presence of sin in their lives. In this classic work, John Owen provides a clear, scriptural path for putting sin to death through the power of the Spirit. This modern-English edition renders Owen's profound insights in accessible language, preserving his theological depth while removing archaic phrasing. Owen shows that true mortification is not mere suppression or self-effort, but a Spirit-empowered, grace-driven work that flows from union with Christ. He offers practical counsel for examining the heart, fighting specific sins, and cultivating spiritual disciplines. Whether you are a new believer or a seasoned pastor, Owen's wisdom remains as relevant today as when it was first written. Discover the joy and freedom that comes from the mortification of sin.
