From Sin to Salvation: The Ascent of the Soul

Exploring traditional concepts of sin and salvation, heaven and hell, Satan and evil, this remarkable work focuses on how the soul can escape from sin and advance spiritually, even in the afterlife and even if one has lived a life of sin and unbelief.
From Sin to Salvation: The Ascent of the Soul examines the Bahá'í views as expressed in the authoritative Bahá'í texts regarding the origin and nature of sin and evil and the power of the individual soul to recognize and combat these forces. In exploring these weighty concepts, author John S. Hatcher discusses what constitutes sin, analyzes how sinful acts affect our lives, both here and hereafter, and, most significantly, reviews what the Bahá'í writings say about the attainment of salvation, even for those who enter the next world without having exercised due diligence in monitoring their spiritual wellbeing.
