Although this is a small book, yet it presents you with matters of the greatest and most weighty concern, even with a discourse of life and death to eternity. It reveals and clarifies, by the Scriptures of God, that the time is at hand when there will be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust – even of the bodies of both, from the graves where they are, or will be, at the start of that day.

The works of John Bunyan are still relevant today as they were 300 years ago. Bunyan faced a lot of religious persecution due to his nonconformist preaching, and due to his faith, he was thrown into prison. Fearing that he might die in prison, John Bunyan synthesized all his struggles and journey of salvation into his writings so that his readers may follow on his path and find God.

"The Pilgrim's Progress" di John Bunyan fu pubblicato tra il 1678 e il 1684. Si tratta di un'allegoria cristiana in cui il protagonista, Cristiano, affronta un percorso di redenzione dai propri peccati affrontando via via tentazioni e nemici aperti: troveremo così ad esempio la Palude dello Scoraggiamento, o il Gigante Disperazione. Dopo sei anni dalla pubblicazione del primo libro, l'autore scrisse poi un secondo libro (che venne poi pubblicato, da quel momento sempre insieme al primo, creando così una prima e una seconda parte).

The life of Mr. Badman forms a third part to The Pilgrim’s Progress, but it is not a delightful pilgrimage to heaven. On the contrary, it is a wretched downward journey to the infernal realms. The author’s goal is to warn poor, thoughtless sinners, not with smooth words they can ignore, but with words that thunder against their consciences regarding the danger of their souls and the increasing wretchedness into which they are madly hurrying.

In this work, John Bunyan addresses the issue of imputation in great detail. The imputed righteousness of Christ was of the highest importance to him, as the only way of salvation. He opposed any manifestation of self-righteousness among Christians, any any claim of justification built thereon.

Seventeenth-century Puritan John Bunyan speaks to us in a way that is much different from usual preachers. Given his own struggles with his faith, his words come from a place of no judgement and so can reach us far deeper. Bunyan explains to us the different levels of fear as felt through our path to Christ: first the fear that brings us to God, then the fear the Devil plants in us to make us doubt, and the fear of God himself which is not an evil, but one that gives us the desire to glorify Him.

The Anti-Christ has featured rather heavily in pop culture or even pop theology, so we may have lost its true meaning along the way. Seventeenth century Puritan preacher John Bunyan offers the best reference for those wishing to fully comprehend the biblical anti-Christ and where its real roots lie.

To the mind enlightened by divine truth, the difference between a filial fear of offending God and the dread of punishment is very plain. Still, by the devil's sophistry, some of the most pious Christians have been puzzled and bewildered. Bunyan was not ignorant of Satan's devices, and he has roused the energies of his powerful mind, guided by divine truth, to render this important doctrine so clear and easy to be understood, that the believer may not err.

John Bunyan admitted he was one of the worst sinners to have ever lived. But after converting to Christianity, he was constantly amazed by the fact that God saved him from his wrongdoings. As a minister of the Gospel, he loved to proclaim the grace of God to sinners, and he earnestly persuaded them to embrace the Lord Jesus Christ. Published in 1688, the year of his death, The Jerusalem Sinner Saved brings together the fruit of Bunyan's thoughts on the grace of forgiveness.

The Holy War tells the story of Mansoul, a utopia built to exalt the greatness and honor of its creator and leader, King Shaddai. However, when the wicked Diabolus, a former high servant of Shaddai's and the king of the blacks, assaults Mansoul, the town forgets its benevolent king and falls under his iniquitous rule. With the citizens of his beloved city lost to sin and vice, Shaddai sends his son, Prince Emmanuel, to deliver them from Diabolus' tyranny.

Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, or a Brief Relation of the Exceeding Mercy of God in Christ to his Poor Servant John Bunyan, is a Puritan spiritual autobiography written by John Bunyan. It was composed while Bunyan was serving a 12-year prison sentence in Bedford prison for preaching without a license, and was first published in 1666.

Written four years after The Pilgrim's Progress, John Bunyan followed up with this second allegorical classic, which has touched hearts and minds of people for generations. The epicenter of this book is the town of Mansoul, its people (such as Conscience, Self-Denial, and Do-Right), and its gates (Eye-gate, Ear-gate, Mouth-gate, Nose-gate, and Feel-gate).
