Episode Description

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 how we can avoid a false sense of peace and instead seek the peace which is given by God.

Topics covered in this chapter:

* How we need God to speak peace to us, it is not something we can get ourselves

* Peace comes with a hatred of sin, there is no real peace without it

* How to know when we are granting peace to ourselves without God, and how we can rightly seek peace
