There is no way to kill a man's righteousness but by his own consent.
John Bunyan
Image
See how ye Pharisee in the Temple stands, And justifies himself with lifted hands. Whilst ye poor publican with downcast eyes, Conscious of guilt to God for mercy cries.
John Bunyan
Image
Wherefore, though the Christian, as a Christian, is the only man at liberty, as called thereunto of God yet his liberty is limited to things that are good: he is not licensed thereby to indulge the flesh.

You have not lived today until you have done something for someone who can never repay you.
John Bunyan
Image
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

I have often thought that the best Christians are found in the worst of times.
John Bunyan
Image
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.

Knock, and it shall be opened unto you.

A comely sight indeed it is to see, a world of blossoms on an apple tree.

Hanging is too good for him said Mr. Cruelty.
