Spiritual-Mindedness
by John Owen
John Owen's searching treatise on Romans 8:6, born from meditations written during a season of illness. He examines how our thoughts and affections reveal whether the mind is set on the flesh or the Spirit, presenting spiritual-mindedness as both a grace to receive and a duty to cultivate.
Based on The Grace and Duty of Being Spiritually Minded (1681), by John Owen
From the book
In John Owen's own words
“To be spiritually minded is the great distinguishing character of true believers from all unregenerate persons.”
“Spiritual thoughts will no more hinder you in your callings than those which are vain and earthly, which all sorts of men find leisure for in the midst of their employments.”
