Aside from the Bible, no book has been published more often or translated into more languages than John Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress. The book is completely and eminently biblical, but it is also extremely practical, and remains a deeply experiential and spiritual account of the realities of the Christian life, conversion, the Christian walk, opposition, and spiritual rewards, both temporal and eternal. We are all pilgrims on this earth. Every Christian will be able to identify with the story told in these pages. This story is your story.
This edition corresponds to the annotated and illustrated version of the book. Among the features of this edition are: – Complete and unabridged work. – Includes original notes by Bunyan and other specialists on the subject. – Introduction written by George Offor, editor of Bunyan's works.
The Pilgrim's Progress is the tenderest and most theological of all books, it beats with life in every word. J. Gresham Machen
Though Bunyan's writings are delightfully full of poetry, he cannot give us his Pilgrim's Progress, the sweetest of all prose poems, without continually making us feel and say, "Why, this man is a living Bible! Prick him anywhere, his blood is Bibline, the very essence of the Bible flows from him. He cannot speak without quoting a text, for his very soul is full of the Word of God." Charles Spurgeon
Pilgrim's Progress, smells of prison. It was written when the author was confined in Bedford Jail. And ministers never write or preach so well as when they are under the cross: the Spirit of Christ and of Glory then rests upon them. George Whitefield
