Doctrines of the Christian Faith

Things Most Surely Believed*
Doctrines Of The Christian Faith
By Anonymous

Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us, Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus, That thou mightest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed. (Luk. 1:1-4)

A study on the afterlife and eternal punishment

The Hereafter: Sheol, Hades, and Hell, the World to Come, the Scripture Doctrine of Retribution According to Law.
Y James Fyfe
Edinburgh :
T. & T. Clark, 38, George Street.
1890.

This book has a lot of OCR scanning errors in it. But it is the most extensive book on Hell, Hades, and Sheol out there I think. Parte 1: Fyfe reviews these concepts in various different influential cultures using historical and archeaological evidence. He develops an explanation of the name and use of Gehenna. Part 2: He now studies the doctrine of retribution according to the Law. He also studies the concept of probation in punishment, and the concept of “eternal”. Finally he looks at objections to these Bible doctrines and their answers.

A study on the Christian concept of "hell"

The Christian Hell
from the First to the Twentieth Century
by Bonner, Hypatia Bradlaugh (1858-1935)

I am including this work from Mrs. Bonner (a feminist and atheist), because she outlines the secular history of the concept of hell. Obviously she will not give us a fair shake on the Bible’s presentation of the subject, but she will educate us on secular man’s view of hell. She has added probably 30 woodcuts from ancient times depicting what they imagined hell would be like.

WARNING: This book has images that would perhaps be offensive or unbiblical if you really study them. It is not my purpose to present this as my belief because most probably little in this book would represent my position on hell and eternal punishment. My addition of this book to the library is more to round out my understanding of how religious people form different time periods viewed hell. That is, I take this book as a secular history book on the subject of hell.
