More quotes by John Bunyan
Yet my great-grandfather was but a water-man, looking one way and rowing another: and I got most of my estate by the same occupation.
John Bunyan
Now, I saw, upon a time, when he was walking in the fields, that he was, as he was wont, reading in his book, and greatly distressed in his mind and, as he read, he burst out, as he had done before, crying, What shall I do to be saved?
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
If you are not a praying person, you are not a Christian.
John Bunyan
Hope is never ill when faith is well.
John Bunyan
It is said that in some countries trees will grow, but will bear no fruit because there is no winter there.
John Bunyan
Prayer is an ordinance of God, that must continue with a soul so long as it is on this side glory.
John Bunyan
The best prayer I ever prayed had enough sin to damn the whole world.
John Bunyan
I have given Him my faith, and sworn my allegiance to Him how, then, can I go back from this, and not be hanged as a traitor?
John Bunyan
a man there was, though some did count him mad, the more he cast away the more he had.
John Bunyan
Great grace and small gifts are better than great gifts and no grace.
John Bunyan
Our heart oft times wakes when we sleep, and God can speak to that, either by words, by proverbs, by signs and similitudes, as well as if one was awake.
John Bunyan
Though the world disregard the society of God's children now, yet there is a time coming in which they would be glad to have the least company with them.
John Bunyan
Christians are like the several flowers in a garden that have each of them the dew of heaven, which, being shaken with the wind, they let fall at each other's roots, whereby they are jointly nourished, and become nourishers of each other.
John Bunyan
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
In prayer it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
John Bunyan
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
I have often thought that the best Christians are found in the worst of times.
John Bunyan
I could not be satisfied unless some fruits did appear in my work.
John Bunyan
But pleasures are like poppies spread: You seize the flower
John Bunyan
