	John Owen (theologian) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		A Puritan by upbringing, in 1637 Owen was driven from Oxford by Laud's new statutes, and became chaplain and tutor in the family of Sir Robert Dormer and then in that of Lord Lovelace.
		Owen's condition was liberty to all who agree in doctrine with the Church of England; nothing therefore came of the negotiation.
		As of 2005, the majority of Owen's voluminous works are still in print, and several popular and scholarly analyses of his theology have been published recently, indicating the continued interest in and applicability of Owen's insights.

		Owen abounds in the tricks by which a word is written backwards or stripped of a syllable or letter.
		Whatever the method employed, Owen’s perpetual aim is to startle the reader by the flash of his wit, whether the result be reached by the soaring of a rocket or the splutter of a squib.
		Owen, as he reminds us, was of the order of Fratres Minores; he makes no secret of his eagerness to be patronised and is outspoken in his desire to receive pecuniary help, a weakness which he shared with Martial.

		OWEN, John (1616-1683), theologian, was born of Puritan parents at Stadham in Oxfordshire in 1616.
		Owen's condition for making terms was liberty to all who agree in doctrine with the Church of England; nothing therefore came of the negotiation.
		In 1674 Owen was attacked by one Dr Sherlock, whom he easily vanquished, and from this time until 1680 he was engaged upon his ministry and the writing of religious works.

	"The Chief Design of my Life - Mortification and Universal Holiness": Reflections on the Life and Thought of John Owen (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Owen was born in the middle of this movement and became its greatest pastor-theologian as the movement ended almost simultaneously with his death in 1683 (see note 14).
		Owen was sympathetic with Parliament against the king and Laud, and so he was pushed out of his chaplaincy and moved to London where five major events of his life happened in the next four years that stamped the rest of his life.
		Owen came to the attention of Oliver Cromwell, the governmental leader ("Protector") in the absence of a king, and Cromwell is reputed to have said to Owen, "Sir, you are a person I must be acquainted with;" to which Owen replied, "that will be much more to my advantage than yours" (see note 20).

		John has always believed that his mother will tell him one day, but this hope is dashed; one day at a Little League game, Owen, ordered to bat for John, hits a high foul ball that falls onto John's mother's head, breaking her neck and killing her.
		Owen manages to graduate from the public high school, and John and Owen are reunited at the University of New Hampshire, where John majors in English; Owen develops a relationship with John's hypersexual cousin Hester.

	John Owen
		Owen was born in the village of Stadham, Oxfordshire, to a thoughtful couple who "home-schooled" their precocious youngster before sending him on to high school and thence, at age 12, to Oxford.
		While Owen immersed himself in his studies (permitting himself no more than four hours sleep per night), a campus figure loomed menacingly before him whose approach set the tone for so much of what Owen would have to contend with for the rest of his life.
		Soon Owen was cheerfully at work as a pastor and diligently at work as a scholar-writer as the first of 27 dense tomes emerged from the point of his pen.

	“The Aonement” by John Owen (1616-1683)
		Owen’s replies are relevant both to conservative non-Calvinists who object that limited atonement is unfair, and to those neo-orthodox theologians who teach that, because atonement is universal and because ultimately all creatures will acknowledge Christ, salvation is universal.
		Owen’s strongest arguments are that More assumes indefinite expressions to be universal and that he fails to prove that the universal offer of salvation necessitates a universal atonement.
		It is contrary to the apostolical precept, I John 5:16; 3.

		Owen suggested that it is only in the context of this covenant that meaning can be given to the death of Christ and the subsequent pardoning of sinners.

	John Owen: His Life and Literary Legacy
		John was considered to be a precocious child and was allowed to enter Queen’s College at this tender age, where he devoted himself to several branches of learning with the utmost intensity.
		Owen would not budge: like Moses he “esteemed the reproach of Christ greater riches than all the treasures of Egypt.” John Owen was virtually self-exiled for conscience’ sake: God was not educating him in a higher school.
		Owen fought on two fronts: on one hand he had to maintain a ministry of warning to his brethren against the inroads of Popery, and on the other hand heroically holding to the ideal of unity among brethren.

	John Owen
		John Owen’s treatises on Indwelling Sin in Believers and The Mortification of Sin are, in my opinion, the most helpful writings on personal holiness ever written.
		There is constantly in Owen, even when we are in the thick of him (and some of his writing is dense indeed) a doxological motive and motif.
		Owen was by common consent the weightiest Puritan theologian, and many would bracket him with Jonathan Edwards as one of the greatest Reformed theologians of all time.

	John Owen On The Spirit In The Life Of Christ
		Owen, however, notes that the significance of Jesus' baptism and anointing with the Spirit cannot be separated from his experience of temptation or from the 'driving' of the Spirit, by which he was thrust into the wilderness [Mk.
		Owen further underlines a point he has already made: when Jesus returned in triumph from his testing and preached in the synagogue in Luke 4, he did not speak as a retired military colonel, barking out orders to subordinates (if the analogy may be used).
		Owen saw two possible ways of understanding these words: (a) the reference might be to the personal spirit of Jesus; (b) alternatively, it could refer to the Holy Spirit.

	John Calvin’s View of the Extent of the Atonement
		John Murray notes that Calvin does assert the propriety of a universal offer of salvation, but holds a “fast line of distinction between the elect and the reprobate,” and specifically reflects on the particular reference of the atonement in his comments on 1 John 2:2 and 1 Tim 2:4, 6.
		He is positive that Calvin held to a universal offer of grace and rejected universal salvation, but he holds that the diversity of the evidence concerning Calvin’s position on the extent of the atonement prevents a conclusion on this point.
		This is explicitly brought to the fore in the commentaries in Ezek 18:32; John 3:16; 2 Pet 3:9.

	Death Of Death In The Death Of Christ John Owen
		Description: The Death of Death in the Death of Christ (Owen Works, X:139:148) is a polemical piece, designed to show among other things, that the doctrine of universal redemption is unscriptural and destructive of the gospel.
		Some may find the very sound of Owen's thesis so shocking that they will refuse to read his book at all, so passionate a thing is prejudice, and so proud are we of our theological shibboleths.
		It is to those who share this readiness that Owen's treatise is now offered, in the belief that it will help us in one of the most urgent tasks facing evangelical Christendom today - the recovery of the gospel.
