John BunyanJohn Bunyan Nothing can render affliction so insupportable as the load of sin. Would you then be fitted for afflictions? Be sure to get the burden of your sins laid aside, and then what affliction soever you may meet with will be very easy to you.
John BunyanJohn 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 BunyanJohn Bunyan God, as I may say, is forced to break men’s hearts, before he can make them willing to cry to him, or be willing that he should have any concerns with them; the rest shut their eyes, stop their ears, withdraw their hearts, or say unto God, Be gone.
John BunyanJohn Bunyan Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan.
John BunyanJohn 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 BunyanJohn Bunyan Prayer is an ordinance of God, that must continue with a soul so long as it is on this side glory.
John BunyanJohn Bunyan Riches and power, what is there more in the world? For money answereth all things-that is, all but soul concerns. It can neither be a price for souls while here, nor can that, with all the forces of strength, recover one out of hell fire.
John BunyanJohn Bunyan I have often thought that the best Christians are found in the worst of times.
