	John Owen, English theologian (1616-83)
		(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.

	John Owen and the Covenant of Redemption
		Owen continues his description of the pact by demonstrating that the promises are made between the Father and Son upon supposition that each will fulfill his duty to the other.
		Owen then concludes, in volume 12, by saying, “And this, I say, is the covenant and compact that was between Father and Son, which is the great foundation of what hath been said and shall farther be spoken about the merit and satisfaction of Christ.
		Owen ratifies this in saying, “By the new covenant, not the new covenant absolutely and originally, as given in the first promise, is intended; but in its complete gospel administration, when it was actually established by the death of Christ, as administered in and by the ordinances of the new testament.

		John Owen was born to Puritan parents in the Oxfordshire village of Stadham in 1616.
		John Owen, born in Oxfordshire, son of a distinguished theologian, was himself a more distinguished one, who must be counted among the most distinguished of this age.
		Owen was a pastoral theologian at heart, writing many treatises throughout his career, the driving passion of which was to promote holiness and unity among believers.

	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
		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.
		John Owen’s three classic works on sin and temptation are profoundly helpful to any believer who seeks to become more like Jesus Christ.
		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.

		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).

	The Theologian
		John Owen is said to support both the activity and the visibility of the pre‑incarnate Son.
		Owen does not use the occurrence of christophanies to reduce the discontinuity between the testament or to raise the level of knowledge from which progressive revelation develops.
		Owen both affirms the classic doctrine that external operations of the Trinity are indivisible (opera ad extra Trinitatis indivisa sunt) and distinguishes between the persons in—and because of—their distinct operations; Alan Spence, ‘John Owen and Trinitarian Agency’, Scottish Journal of Theology 43/2 (1990), pp.157–173.

	J. I. Packer's Introduction to a 1958 reprint of John Owen's The Death of Death in the Death of Christ
		Owen sees that the question which has occasioned his writing - the extent of the atonement - involves the further question of its nature, since if it was offered to save some who will finally perish, then it cannot have been a transaction securing the actual salvation for all for whom it was designed.
		Owen's work is a constructive, broad-based biblical analysis of the heart of the gospel, and must be taken seriously as such.
		Owen indicates more than once that for a complete statement of the case against universal redemption he would need to write a further book, dealing with 'the other part of the controversy, concerning the cause of sending Christ' (pp 245, 295).

	SGCB \| The Works of John Owen
		John Owen was born in 1616 and died in 1683.
		Owen's masterly account of justification by faith, first printed in 1677, is distinguished from the other two classical 17th-century English treatises on this subject (those of Downame and Davenant) by its non-speculative, non-scholastic character and its dominating pastoral concern.
		As Owen himself observes, Cane and his co-religionists knew well the importance of striking while the iron was hot, for the times seemed ripe for the re-establishment of Roman Catholicism.

		Owen writes: "the heavens and earth that God himself planted - the sun, moon, and stars of the judaical polity and church - the whole old world of worship and worshippers, that stand out in their obstinacy against the Lord Christ shall be sensibly dissolved and destroyed." [1]
		Owen offers two further reasons ("of many that might be insisted on from the text," he says) for adopting the A.D. 70 interpretation of 2 Peter 3.
		John Bray writes: "This passage is a grand description of the gospel age after Christ came in judgment in 70 A.D. and took away the old heavens and the old earth.

		James I. Packer is a strong supporter of biblical inerrancy, and a theologian who combines the evangelical reformed tradition with Puritan tradition.
		John was driven from Oxford in 1637 when Archbishop Laud issued rules that many of England's more democratically-minded or "low" church ministers could not accept.
		After that, John wrote a rebuke of Arminianism (a theology which teaches that man has some say in his own salvation or damnation although God is still sovereign).

		At the Westminster Conference 2001, held at Westminster Chapel, London on December 11 the Rev. William Timmins of Beeston in Derbyshire gave a paper on "John Owen and the Problem of Indwelling Sin." John Owen (1616-1683) was the great theologian of the Puritan period.
		Owen treasured John Bunyan's preaching, and his affection was reciprocated by the author of Pilgrim's Process.
		Owen's work teaches us we have three needs, for wisdom to know our own hearts and our Saviour Christ better; our need for watchfulness to even die rather than yield one step to sin; and thirdly our need to be ever at war.

	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.
		The controlling thought here, for Owen, is that the ministry of the Spirit in the ministry of Christ is the paradigm for the ministry of the Spirit in the ministry of his disciples.
		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).

	Derek Thomas on John Owen « The Shepherd’s Scrapbook
		John Owen (1616-1683) was perhaps the weightiest of the Puritan theologians, often mentioned in the same breath as John Calvin and Jonathan Edwards as one of three greatest reformed theologians of all time.
		Owen is a giant among giants, and Derek gives not only his knowledge of Owen, but his love of Owen as well.
		He obviously has an excellent grasp of Owen and it is wonderful to listen to him talk about this giant of the faith because it seems to be just like a story that he’s telling of someone that he knows intimately.

	John Owen « The Shepherd’s Scrapbook
		Owen is doing so in a more overtly Trinitarian fashion than perhaps Calvin did; but he is bringing to surface what is at the heart of God’s covenant relationship with redeemed sinners.
		For Owen, as for Calvin, there is no sense in trying to talk about knowing God by experience if we don’t know how to articulate who God is! The only God there is has revealed himself to us in creation and providence, but supremely in the Scriptures and in his Son’s incarnation.
		Owen is dealing with a surprisingly modern problem at this point: that in communing with Jesus it is all too possible to draw the conclusion that whereas the Son loves us, the Father is angry with us.
