“Be killing sin or it will be killing you” John Owen
“He who does not kill sin in his way takes no steps towards his journey’s end.”
This advent as we journey to the manger to see a babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, let us not forget the task at hand of daily mortifying our flesh. Christ came into the world to save the world from its sin. Remember today that “sin sets its strength against every act of holiness and against every degree we grow to. Let not that man think he makes any progress in holiness who walks not over the bellies of his lusts.”
Quotes from John Owen’s, Of the Mortification of Sin in Believers.
