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
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
Image
It could be a sign of pride in your life if a word of reproof or admonition is not able to be received with the same grace, whether it be given by the poorest of saints or the most educated person.
John Bunyan

John Bunyan

Every time you have with your mouth said well of godliness, and yet gone on in wickedness or every time you have condemned sin in others, and yet have not refrained it yourselves I say, every such word and conclusion that hath passed out of thy mouth, sinner, it shall be as a witness against thee in the day of God, and the Lord Jesus Christ.
John Bunyan
Image
I preach deliverance to others, I tell them there is freedom, while I hear my own chains clang.
John Bunyan
Image
For to speak the truth, there are but few that care thus to spend their time, but choose rather to be speaking of things to no profit.
John Bunyan
Image
Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin will entice a man to cease from prayer.
John Bunyan
Image
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
Image
I am content with what I have, little be it, or much.
John Bunyan
Image
He who runs from God in the morning will scarcely find Him the rest of the day.
John Bunyan
Image
Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan.
John Bunyan
Image
If that a pearl may in a toad's head dwell, And may be found too in an oyster shell.
