John Owen: Sanctification and the Gospel

1616 -1683. Preeminent English Puritan theologian, pastor, and independent.

This whole matter of sanctification and holiness is peculiarly joined with and limited unto the doctrine, truth, and grace of the gospel; for holiness is nothing but the implanting, writing, and realizing of the gospel in our souls.

~John Owen~
