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.

More quotes by John Bunyan
Knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
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
Breathes there a man, whose judgment clear Can others teach their course to steer, Yet run himself life's mad career Wild as the wave?
John Bunyan
The difference between true and false repentance lies in this: the man who truly repents cries out against his heart but the other, as Eve, against the serpent, or something else.
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
He that is down needs fear no fall. He that is low, no pride He that is humble, ever shall have God to be his Guide.
John Bunyan

John Bunyan
The heart, when broken, is like sweet gums and spices when beaten for as such cast their fragrant scent into the nostrils of men, so the heart, when broken, casts its sweet smell into the nostrils of God.
John Bunyan
Let dissolution come when it will, it can do the Christian no harm, for it will be but a passage out of a prison into a palace out of a sea of troubles into a haven of rest out of a crowd of enemies, to an innumerable company of true, loving, and faithful friends out of shame, reproach, and contempt, into exceeding great and eternal glory.
John Bunyan
He who runs from God in the morning will scarcely find Him the rest of the day.
John Bunyan
I preach deliverance to others, I tell them there is freedom, while I hear my own chains clang.
John Bunyan
Some said, John, print it others said Not so. Some said, It might do good others said, No.
John Bunyan
Whatever contradicts the Word of God should be instantly resisted as diabolical.
John Bunyan
I have often thought that the best Christians are found in the worst of times.
John Bunyan
a man there was, though some did count him mad, the more he cast away the more he had.
John Bunyan
I saw a man clothed with rags . . . a book in his hand, and a great burden upon his back.
John Bunyan
Hope is never ill when faith is well.
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
