Great grace and small gifts are better than great gifts and no grace.
John Bunyan
Image
Christ is the desire of nations, the joy of angels, the delight of the Father. What solace then must that soul be filled with, that has the possession of Him to all eternity!
John Bunyan
Image
One leak will sink a ship: and one sin will destroy a sinner.
John Bunyan
Image
Though it be said that faith cometh by hearing, yet it is the Spirit that worketh faith in the heart through hearing, or else they are not profited by hearing.
John Bunyan
Image
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
Image
There is enough sin in my best prayer to send the whole world to Hell.
John Bunyan
Image
The best prayers have often more groans than words.
John Bunyan

I saw, moreover, that it was not my good frame of heart that made my righteousness better, nor my bad frame that made my righteousness worse for my righteousness was Jesus Christ himself, the same yesterday and today and forever.
John Bunyan
Image
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
Image
The reason why the Christians in this day are at such a loss as to some things is that they are contented with what comes from man's mouth, without searching and kneeling before God to know of Him the truth of things.
John Bunyan
Image
If you are not a praying person, you are not a Christian.
John Bunyan
Image
Pray and read, read and pray for a little from God is better than a great deal from men.
John Bunyan
Image
Run when I can, walk when I cannot run, and creep when I cannot walk.
John Bunyan
Image
Whatever contradicts the Word of God should be instantly resisted as diabolical.
John Bunyan
Image
The heart must be beaten or bruised, and then the sweet scent will come out.
John Bunyan
Image
To seek yourself in this world is to be lost and to be humble is to be exalted.
John Bunyan
Image
Dark clouds bring waters, when the bright bring none.
John Bunyan
Image
What a fool, quoth he, am I, thus to lie in a stinking dungeon, when I may as well walk at liberty! I have a key in my bosom, called Promise, that will, I am persuaded, open any lock in Doubting Castle.
John Bunyan
Image
Now, Mr. Great-heart was a strong man, so he was not afraid of a lion.
