A Hopeful Puritan Perspective on Suffering and Death In the throes of a long illness and confronting the possibility of death, 17th-century theologian Richard Baxter found comfort in the reality of heaven that awaits believers of Christ. During his recovery, Baxter wrote about the afterlife in what would become his best-selling book. The Saints' Everlasting Rest meditates on what Scripture reveals about heaven, helping believers live an abundant, God-honoring life in anticipation of eternal rest. Baxter encourages readers not to become distracted or discouraged by the temporal as he refocuses their minds on the eternal. Confronting difficult topics including sin, suffering, and fear of death, he also emphasizes God's sufficient grace and how the promise of heaven enriches life on earth.

Most evangelical Christians believe that those people who are not saved before they die will be punished in hell forever. But is this what the Bible truly teaches? Do Christians need to rethink their understanding of hell? In the late twentieth century, a growing number of evangelical theologians, biblical scholars, and philosophers began to reject the traditional doctrine of eternal conscious torment in hell in favor of a minority theological perspective called conditional immortality. This view contends that the unsaved are resurrected to face divine judgment, just as Christians have always believed, but due to the fact that immortality is only given to those who are in Christ, the unsaved do not exist forever in hell. Instead, they face the punishment of the "second death"--an end to their conscious existence. This volume brings together excerpts from a variety of well-respected evangelical thinkers, including John Stott, John Wenham, and E. Earl Ellis, as they articulate the biblical, theological, and philosophical arguments for conditionalism. These readings will give thoughtful Christians strong evidence that there are indeed compelling reasons for rethinking hell.

While facing a critical illness, Richard Baxter turned his thoughts towards the celestial realm, embarking on a profound exploration of heaven's essence in his book "Saints' Everlasting Rest." In the midst of physical affliction, Baxter pondered over the fundamental questions surrounding the heavenly abode: its intended recipients, its celestial characteristics, and the means by which one can adequately prepare for its embrace. As Baxter points out, eternal heavenly rest constitutes the pinnacle of joy for a Christian, representing a state of perfect liberation from all forms of evil, a sanctuary where believers bask in an unadulterated union with God. In this eloquent exposition, Baxter urges readers to think deeply about the heavenly realm and make a conscious effort to manifest the divine work of God in every earthly endeavor. He shows how, by leading a life infused with heavenly values, Christians can prepare themselves for that better land. Though his thoughts are deep and insightful, Baxter maintains a humble posture, acknowledging the limitations of human understanding in grasping the full splendor of heaven. He candidly admits that the fall has tainted our ability to comprehend the true nature of the celestial realm. Baxter's humility doesn't diminish the potency of his meditations, however. His reflections have served as guiding lights for many as they contemplated the afterlife. A true literary masterpiece, "Saints' Everlasting Rest" offers readers a captivating and beautiful glimpse into the wonders of their future heavenly home.
