ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT WORKS OF ALL TIMEJohn Owen (1616-1683), is considered the greatest Protestant theologian of all time, and Victory Over Sin and Temptation is his most representative book. Among the characteristics of this work are:
John Piper, founder of the "Desiring God" ministry, and author. "Dr. Lovelace, in his Basic Dynamics course at Gordon-Conwell, made us read the book On Temptation and The Mortification of Sin. That's how I discovered John Owen in 1972. I wouldn't be in ministry today if I hadn't read him, and my life would definitely be a complete wreck if I had never read Owen."
Timothy Keller, Founder of Redeemer Presbyterian Church, and of the City to City ministry. "The greatest Christian writers are those who most powerfully project to their spiritual readers the knowledge of God, of ourselves, and of the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Among these are Augustine, Calvin, Edwards, and the Puritan John Owen, who should be better known than he is. Full of classic devotional theology, which, like Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress, needs to be read again and again to properly appropriate its teachings. We have in this treatise by Owen a companion for life."
J.I. Packer, Professor of Theology, Regent College. "When you have a volume of Owen in your hands you wonder, "why have I spent so much time reading things of much lesser quality?" This is true, and as Dr. John Duncan once said, "if you are going to read this, you have to prepare yourself for the knife." But that knife is the scalpel of one of the most excellent spiritual surgeons of the soul in the entire history of the Church. Owen understood, as very few have, the way the Gospel completely renews us."
Sinclair Ferguson, Senior Minister, First Presbyterian Church, Columbia, S.C. About the author:
John Owen (1616-1683), was an English theologian, and leader of the Puritan movement. He is considered the most important evangelical Protestant theologian of all time. His theological legacy and influence are incomparable. Owen supremely exemplifies the Reformed Protestant ideal of a life in humility completely consecrated to the service of God, a Spirit-anointed preaching, and an incredibly gifted intellect.
