The Pilgrim's Progress: A Readable Modern-Day Version of John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s Progress (The Pilgrim's Progress Series Book 1)

by John Bunyan

“There are three things in the man’s advice that you must absolutely hate: first, his cunning ability to turn you away from the true path; secondly, his work in displaying the cross as unpleasant and repulsive; and finally, that he points you in a direction that ultimately leads to death.”

“The fact is, no man has ever been able to get rid of his own burden nor can he expect the moral law will do so either.

“Those who rely on the works of the law are under the curse. For it is written, cursed is everyone who doesn’t continue to obey every command written in the Book of the Law.”31

“The things of this world are temporary, but the things we cannot see are eternal.41 But even though we know this to be true, it’s still very difficult. You see, our natural desires for the things of this world are very strong and adamantly opposed to spiritual desires for the world to come.
