Deep Dive into The Nature, Power, Deceit, and Prevalency of the Remainders of Indwelling Sin in Believers Together with the Ways of Its Working and Means of Prevention, Opened, Evinced, and Applied with a Resolution of Sundry Cases of Conscience thereunto Appertaining by John Owen - Indwelling Sin in Believers Treated of by the Apostle, Romans 7:21 - The Place Explained
John Owen's theological discourse explores the persistent power and deceptive nature of indwelling sin within believers, emphasizing that this internal corruption remains actively hostile to spiritual growth even after conversion. Drawing primarily from Romans 7:21, the author analyzes how this residual evil functions as an internal law that constantly opposes the believer's heartfelt desire and habitual inclination to do good. Despite these persistent spiritual struggles, Owen asserts that justification is secured entirely through Christ's sacrifice rather than human self-scrutiny. The text ultimately urges Christians to practice rigorous self-examination, vigilance, and spiritual wisdom to recognize and resist this constant internal adversary.
