Join me to read John Owen’s classic book “The Mortification of Sin in Believers”. This book is one of the best that have ever been written about how to live a holy life. In this chapter we consider what mortification actually IS, rather than what it isn’t (as in the last chapter). Topics covered in this chapter:

* What it means to mortify sin (to put it to death);

* The need to habitually weaken sin not just at its source but its root;

* How people can experience this differently;

* We should be continually fighting and what that looks like;

* Success against sin.

You can download a copy of the book (for free) from this website.
