Thomas Boston's Human Nature in Its Fourfold State is often regarded as one of Christian literature's best discourses on human nature, tracing it from its perfect beginnings in Eden, through the fall of man, and on to its final state in eternity.

My personal journey to recovering from a broken legal system at the hand of God. In a system where "Discretion" supersedes "Due Process" no one has a chance at a "Fair Trial."
