One of the things that is common to true believers is a sense of unworthiness because of sin. This may cause us to doubt both ourselves and God's love for us. Here is an insightful handling of these matters by one of the most pastoral of the Puritans. Love's conclusion is that the great enemy of our souls will do all he can to take our eyes off of our Savior, even if that means an over-preoccupation with sin and self. This book gives Scriptural guidelines to recover a sense of God's love, to give comfort to those who are convicted, and to convict those who may be falsely comforted. This is important reading for anyone who longs to be more sanctified and satisfied. There is also another work by Christopher Love at the end of this book called "A Treatise of Angels."

In The Case and Cure of a Deserted Soul, Joseph Symonds (d.1652) explores the nature, causes, and treatment of spiritual depression—a state that arises when God seems to hide his face, leaving the Christian to walk alone in a “dark night of the soul.” Every aspect of this condition is examined with a surgeon’s precision, a philosopher’s insight, and the Word of God’s wisdom on how to gain a firmer footing and emerge from this melancholy hour with renewed strength and vivacity.
