 The life and death of Christopher Love is widely unknown.  Born in 1618 (in Cardiff, Wales), this young Welsh preacher’s life was cut short at the age of thirty-three.  Christopher Love was converted at the age of fifteen and ordained into ministry on January 23, 1644 (approximately ten years later).  Because of his political leanings and involvements, he was arrested by Oliver Cromwell's forces for his alleged involvement with a plan to raise money for the restoration of the monarchy, a charge Love denied.  He and many others were arrested for treason (the honorable Thomas Watson being the most noted).  They were all released after six months, except for Love who was to be beheaded as an example to all.
