Review # 1 was written on 2013-07-18 00:00:00 Kim Kinkel If you pick up and read this book, one of two things will happen. You will get 15 pages in and decide its not for you, or you will carry on reading and find yourself amazed at the journey God brought this poor tinker through. I found myself at first thinking something was clinically wrong with Bunyan (and maybe there was), but the more I read I wondered if there wasn't something wrong with me. Sure, one mans conversion cannot truly be poorer than another's from Heavens perspective. However, to walk the struggle he walked with him left me rebuked for my thoughts of entitlement and made me thankful once again for Christ's saving work in my life. Ironically, after such a journey, I reckon Bunyan is the last saint in heaven you'd ever have to convince of Gods election. His story, if left up to him, should have concluded in Hell, but for the intervening and saving grace of God; a grace that also sustained him in the fiery furnace of Christian persecution: and even now a grace that sustains and nourishes many other pilgrims, plagued with doubts and suffering.

Review # 2 was written on 2007-11-24 00:00:00 Steve Hern�ndez at a time when I didn't think that christians could have a thought life as crazy as mine, this book was a great comfort to me. john bunyan and charles spurgeon were probably a couple of the greatest preachers of GRACE and comforters of the conscience in this last 500 yeras.
