Cultivating a sense of the guilt of sin

from Understand the Bible · host Phill Sacre

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. This chapter is about the importance and even need of cultivating a true sense of the guilt of sin.Topics covered in this chapter:* How we can cultivate a right sense of the guilt for sin and how that helps us as Christians;* The dangers of not feeling guilty, including being hardened against God; correction in this life; loss of peace and strength; and eternal destruction.* The evil there is in sin, including grieving the Spirit and taking away our usefulness to God.You can download a copy of the book (for free) from this website.Understand the Bible is a reader-supported publication.
