Christopher Love was born in Cardiff, Wales in 1618. He was converted at the age of 15, and later assumed the pastorate of St. Lawrence Jewry in London, becoming a Presbyterian. This work is a treatise on one of the most hated doctrines in the Bible; a treatise on "hell." Love's text, “But rather fear Him which is able to destroy both body and soul in hell,” Matt. 10:28, as a foundation for all his queries and answers to this dreadful subject. Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758), one the greatest preachers to ever live, kept a copy of Love’s works on hell in his library due to the graphic description of Love’s exposition. The weighty subject matter is presented in such a lively style and is so carefully applied that readers cannot help but be edified whether they are Christians or not. It is, without a doubt, one of the best works on hell ever written. This is not a scan or facsimile, and has been updated in modern English for easy reading. It also has an active table of contents for electronic versions.
