Quote - 04

I'm reading through a book that is unpacking Romans 8:13b, "if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live." It has been very insightful, convicting, motivating, and hope-giving. It is entitled, The Mortification of Sin, written by John Owen in 1658, and you can get a copy here. I may give a fuller and lengthier quote another time, but just to get you contemplating the nature of this topic, here is a brief quote:

"Be killing sin or it will be killing you."

May you dwell on that and find greater motive to set about and continue to mortify sin in your life.
