About this ebook

In this powerful collection of 17 sermons, Christopher Love, a devoted preacher of Reformed orthodoxy, lays bare the desperate condition of the natural man—alienated from God, lost without hope, and unable to save himself. Anchored in Ephesians 2:12, Love examines every aspect of humanity’s fallen state, masterfully exposing the devastating effects of sin and the urgent necessity of divine grace. With precision and compassion, Love pleads with the unconverted to recognize their spiritual poverty and embrace salvation through Christ alone. 


Through detailed explanations of the covenant of works and the covenant of grace, Love presents the gospel in its fullness, showing how the failure of Adam magnifies the mercy of Christ. His sermons speak to the core truths of saving faith, repentance, and the call to conversion, while encouraging believers to press on in sanctification with the assurance that their salvation is secure in the promises of God. 


Included at the end of this collection is The Saint’s Triumph Over Death, a funeral sermon preached by Thomas Manton at the death of Christopher Love. Manton’s stirring words reflect on the victory that Christ has secured over death, offering a hopeful meditation on the believer’s eternal rest. His tribute to Love underscores the legacy of a faithful minister who lived and died for the glory of God. 


The Natural Man’s Case Stated is not merely a theological discourse—it is a pastoral and heartfelt call to examine the state of your soul and to cling to the only hope of salvation: Jesus Christ.
