More quotes by John Bunyan
The Lord uses his flail of tribulation to separate the chaff from the wheat.
John Bunyan
A saint abroad, and a devil at home.
John Bunyan
In prayer, it is better to have heart without words, than words without heart. Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin entice a man to cease from prayer. The spirit of prayer is more precious than treasures of gold and silver. Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan.
John Bunyan
Beware of resting in the word of the kingdom, without the spirit and power of the kingdom of that gospel, for the gospel coming in word only saves nobody, for the kingdom of God or the gospel, where it comes to salvation, is not in word but in power.
John Bunyan
I could not be satisfied unless some fruits did appear in my work.
John Bunyan
You can do more than pray after you have prayed, but you cannot do more than pray until you have prayed. Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge to Satan.
John Bunyan
If my life is fruitless, it doesn't matter who praises me, and if my life is fruitful, it doesn't matter who criticizes me.
John Bunyan
Our sins, when laid upon Christ, were yet personally ours, not his so his righteousness, when put upon us, is yet personally his, not ours.
John Bunyan
Words easy to be understood do often hit the mark, when high and learned ones do only pierce the air.
John Bunyan
Run when I can, walk when I cannot run, and creep when I cannot walk.
John Bunyan
Farewell, I wish our souls may meet with comfort at the journey's end.- The Heavenly Footman: A Puritan's View of How to Get to Heaven.
John Bunyan
The spirit of prayer is more precious than treasures of gold and silver.
John Bunyan
As your faith is, such your hope will be. Hope is never ill when faith is well, nor strong if faith be weak.
John Bunyan
Who would true valour see, Let him come hither One here will constant be, Come wind, come weather There’s no discouragement Shall make him once relent His first avowed intent To be a pilgrim.
John Bunyan
Hope is never ill when faith is well.
John Bunyan
Now, Mr. Great-heart was a strong man, so he was not afraid of a lion.
John Bunyan
I am content with what I have, little be it, or much.
John Bunyan
A sensible thanksgiving for mercies received is a mighty prayer in the Spirit of God. It prevails with Him unspeakably.
John Bunyan
To pray rightly, you must make God your hope, stay, and all. Right prayer sees nothing substantial or worth being concerned about except God.
John Bunyan
Now may this little Book a blessing be To those that love this little Book, and me: And may its Buyer have no cause to say, His money is but lost, or thrown away.
John Bunyan
