John Owen (1616 – 1683)

by

English Nonconformist church leader, theologian, and academic administrator at the University of Oxford

“it is no safe plea for many to insist on, that tithes are due and divine, as they speak, that is, by a binding law of God now under the gospel. . . .according to the duties required of all the ministers thereof in the gospel, to sing unto themselves that tithes are due to them, by the appointment and law of God, is a fond imagination, a dream that will fill them with perplexity when they awake”

“Owen’s Exposition of the Epistle to the Hebews” p.430; 1840
