A Treatise of the Dominion of Sin and Grace

A searching examination of Romans 6:14 — "Sin shall not have dominion over you" — by one of the foremost Puritan theologians. Owen distinguishes between the reign of sin and sin's mere presence in the believer, equipping readers to assess their own spiritual state with honesty. With pastoral precision he diagnoses the symptoms of sin's dominion: hardness of heart, corrupt imagination, neglect of mortification, and reserve for known sin. He then shows how grace, not law, breaks that dominion — through Christ crucified, the Holy Spirit, and the continual supplies of gospel strength.
