A question popped into my head that I began to think about, and I was hoping some of you could help me work through it. On the cross , the sins of the elect were imputed to Christ in which He paid in full . How is then that the elect are born dead in sin ? He appeased the Fathers wrath and...

I've asked this question before, but I want to give it another shot, as last time the answers I received made no sense. The issue is that Owen and Turretin's double-payment argument against hypothetical universalism seems to contradict the fact that prior to conversion, believers are in fact...

My question here will probably be clearer for those who have the book in front of them. Near the end of his Disputation on Divine Justice, Owen is critiquing Samuel Rutherford. On page 613 of the Goold volume, we get this quote from Owen: "Neither, however, do we think ourselves bound to teach...

There are many people I so wish had written a proper systematic theology. I wish John Murray had; I wish Jonathan Edwards had; I wish Cornelius Van Til had. The one I most wish had written one, though, is John Owen. A year or so ago, I purchased the entire works of Owen (including his Hebrews...

Reformed Worship resources on the internet, is, in fact, woefully inadequate. I'm taking time to create a more well-rounded resource center for worship that follows the Regulative Principle at APM. The following are new articles and such in the Worship section of the site: Art and Music in...

Hi all, I'm a seminary student. Currently, I'm taking a church history class. One of the requirements is that we write a paper on a figure's theology. I chose to write on Owen, but I can't make up my mind for either the Atonement or Union with Christ. The paper is limited to 10 pages and the...

I thought this snapshot of the Reformers view of preservation might be helpful to some. Included are the links to the works the quotes are taken from. Calvin's quote is from his Commentary. The last reference is from Richard Muller. John Calvin (1509 – 1564) Commentary on 2 Timothy 3:16 16...

I have a question regarding this work of Owen's (and actually just about Owen in general) After church I was talking to my pastor and he made a joke about how his reading material was "old people authors" and mine was "young and modern" to which I smiled and said not necessarily! I mentioned...

Hey folks, at long last I have finally formatted Peter Toon's book The Correspondence of John Owen into an e-book. The formatting is fairly straight forward - the longest part of it was linking all of the letters to the table of contents! I've published it in kindle and epub, but to be honest, I...

I've posted some a document at my blog that I thought some here might appreciate: Notes on John Owen’s “Indwelling Sin”. It consists of an outline format of John Owen's Indwelling Sin accompanied by the quotations that I found helpful from the work, along with few notes here or there. If you're...
