Most enjoyable biography I have ever read
This easy to read book is a fine, worthy biography of John Bunyan.

I simply loved it.The book not only tells the story of John Bunyan well but also it does an excellent job of sketching his time- the critical period of English civil war.This English Civil War, in my opinion, is the forerunner of American Revolution some hundred years later. Yet few people are knowledgeable about key figures like Oliver Cromwell. This easy to read book will get you started and whet your appetite to read up more on this part of Anglo-American history.

My highest recommendation! ... Read more

Inspiring
This is a great classic and a must have for any Christian striving to follow Jesus Christ and His Word.Although the Old English is hard to get through at times, it is well worth the effort for the depth of wisdom contained within the pages.It is a great ecouragement and a sober warning of the trials and tribulations we expect to face on the narrow path we're called to walk.

A True Classic
The principles of overcoming the flesh endure from one generation to another as the message of victory in Jesus Christ continues. John Bunyan writes about the form it took in his generation. This classic in Christian and English literature describes the journey Christian takes to the celestial city--that permanent home of believers in Jesus.

In the New Testament we're told of the war between the flesh and the spirit. Bunyan puts it into the context of his day in this classic work. This book is a genuine encouragement to followers of Jesus in any generation. Overcomers from previous generations can continue to encourage us with legacies of this nature as we tread the path in our generation they successfully made in theirs.

Still a Classic After All These Years
Well worth the short time it takes to read it. Had heard of this book all my life, but had never read it. Now I know what I was missing. Not that there is anything new here in terms of faith or theology--there's not.But the manner in which this story is told is entertaining and captivating, still, after all these years. Truths we have been taught and learned through our life's experience are here, all told in a most entertaining and enlightening way.It makes one smile, laugh and, at times, touches one's heart.If it is your first time to read it or your first time in a long time, it's well worth the read. Well worth it. We're all pilgrims and we are all traveling through a foreign land...

Pilgrims Progress--A Blessing
This audio book has been a joy. It happens to be one of my faviorte things to listen to. All my friends at college know lines from it because I talk about it constantly. The story begins with Christian going on pilgrimage in search of heaven. I would encourage all to get this book. The narrator Edward de Souza is wonderful. The applications John Bunyan makes with the Christian life are so practical and real. As a young person its principles have encouraged me as I go about life's journey. I'm reminded of all those who went on pilgrimage, and the reason they continued or left the way. We will find the waters of life deeper or shallower according to our faith in the King of the Place (Heaven). Buy the book. I don't think you will be disappointed. If you don't like it, let me know I will take it.

The Reverse Pilgrim's Progress - Burning Issues
Mr. Badman is just plain BAD.Little sins in little children get magnified into bigger and worse sins.Mr. Badman truly has every bad trait anyone could ever have.He started with lying and stealing, graduated into drinking, cheating and adultery, and then becomes a first-class hypocrite to snag himself a wealthy Christian woman for marriage.While he was sick, he cried out in false repentance only to regress as soon as he was getting well.The saddest and most touching part of the book is the death of his Christian wife and her exhortations to him and their unsaved children.From then on, it's all downhill, as Mr. Badman's seared conscience admits no light, and God gives him up to his destruction.This book has everything NOT to do if you don't want to end up like Mr. Badman.It is also very relevant with the issues of today, drunk "driving", planned "parenthood", and bankruptcy and fraud.Hot summertime reading.

And ye shall know the truth......
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

NO JOKE! GET IT, READ IT.

May God Bless You.

Avoiding the bad mistakes of going to Hell
Even though this book was written in 1600's, it remained very pratical, even up to today. It talked about how a young boy rejecting the calling of God and became a chief in evil workings. Andsee how God gave him up to vile illusion. Truly a God inspired book.

I am undone!
While this book tends to deal with the individual that is completely sold out for sin, there are things that every Christian will be able to identify with.John Bunyan deals with the fact that sin is sin, no matter what lable any given society has given it.

While I thank the Almighty Sovereign God for showing me my need for a savior, and for granting me the priviledge of repenting when I did, I must admit that my heart was very sorrowful and heavy as I read this book.By reading of Badman's extreme antics and his propensity for developing new methods of sin, I must admit that I saw things in my regenerated being that relate to Mr. Badman in one way or another.This is NOT a good thing to identify with, however, I feel that it is a tool that God is using in order to show me my continued need for help from above.

While this book is ficticious in it's characters, the truths that come blazing forth from the scenarios are deep and penetrating. This is a book that should be read often.This is a book that forces the reader to bare his soul before the Creator.Thank God for men like Bunyan.

Do yourself a favor, O comfortable Christian......Read this book and pray that God will allow you to be honest with your assessment of your current condition.

Journey To Hell
This is actually a retitled and edited version of John Bunyan's, "The Life and Death of Mr. Badman," which is otherwise rather hard to locate these days. Its lesser popularity is most likely due to the subject matter, which focuses upon sin, and the fact that it doesn't have the "happy ending" most people seem to require. However, it is a terrific work, definitely the equal of Pilgrim's Progress or Grace Abounding. Bunyan, as usual, finds new meaning in many verses of scripture that one might otherwise overlook. If you like John Bunyan's work and don't have this, get it. It's a keeper. ... Read more
