Fifty one years ago as a child of ten my father introduced me to two books that outside of the Bible would impact my life. One was "Streams in the desert" and the other "Pilgrim's progress". He always pointed me in the right direction, Jesus Christ.
John Bunyan, Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, George McDonald. These are the men I look up to the most. Im a woman and yet I feel a sort of kinship with these brave men who spoke truth through storytelling. I hope to carry on that legacy through my works and be a storyteller for Christ and Christ alone. May it be God's will. ❤
What a wonderful legacy from a man who lived for Christ. I pray his writings continue to draw many more souls for God's Kingdom as the Day of the LORD draws nigh.
I have found Bunions writings for the first time at the end of last year when this was posted, ironically. I had heard of him, but never knew anything about him other than he wrote religious stories. His writings are truly a strength of simplicity, to which all may understand. Praise the Lord and his servant Bunion. Amen
I first read the Christian Pilgrim thirty years ago as a teenager in the college. It was a living story in my memory and has remained so that l introduced it to my Children. God bless the Brethren that distributed it for us in Jesus mighty name.
My parents read Pilgrim’s Progress to myself and siblings when we were young. When I first visited the UK in 2008 I visited the JB museum and church. It made such an impression; was wonderful seeing Bedford again in this film.
Thank you for this inspiring documentary. I picked up John Bunyan's 'The Pilgrims Progress' from my old college library about 35 years ago in India. Amazing book!
England is such a beautiful country. So many God fearing men have been born out of this country, John Wesley, John Bunyon, William Tyndale are examples of true soldiers of Christ. Thanks be to God.
We must do likewise. It will be the only thing that matters when we leave this world. When I am on my deathbed I want to feel content that I ran the race to the end.
when I was a child in junior school, we had this read to us. sadly, I don't think they do this any more. When i reached adulthood, I began to realize the importance of this work...Its not about a once and for all journey, but about the soul journey on the pathway of life...in other words, we get to the Celestial City. HOW EVER LONG IT TAKES...and over the many experiences of many life times...Well...Thats how I see it anyway....It would be nice to hear from anyone of you out there....
I have not yet read Pilgrims Progress, but I want to. I do not believe that we have many lifetimes, dear brother. The Word of God says in Hebrews 9 : 27, " It is appointed unto men once to die, and then the judgement."
@@beckymccallie3719 Amen. This life is all we've got to prepare for admittance into the Celestial City. And we don't have that long a time to prepare so as the song goes: Get right with God and do it now Get right with God and He will show you how.

They have a couple adaptations of it here on RUclips. :) A church did a crazy rock version of it, but still keeps to the main theme. It is in rhyme. Then there is another a church that did one. Then the Hellywood version with Liam Neeson of all people. Still true to the book from what i remember. Lastly there is a cartoon version and the recent computer version(which i hated).
One of those books that look so dull on the bookshelf when you’re young, but all of a sudden you pick it up in adulthood as a Christian and you are astonished at its brilliance and can’t put it down
It is wonderful to see that in seasons of despair, seclusion, aloneness in the wilderness, God’s Work continues with extraordinary outcomes. Just like John, the apostle, when he was imprisoned at Patmos Island, that was when he wrote the Book of Revelation. It is never in vain to suffer in this temporary world for the sake of Christ. There is eternal life and that’s the life that we want. That life has no end and our ultimate goal as Born-Again Christians.
I b elieve I've read all the works of Bunyan available, and the Pilgrims Progress maybe 50 times, I'm reading it now, AND STILL FINDING NEW THINGS to meditate on, O, that our planet had many Bunyans doing our Lords' bidding.
Remember the fourth commandment of Exodus 20:8-11 KJV reminds us of Genesis 2:2&3. God never changes. Jesus is our example. He kept the seventh day sabbath. Even after the crucifixion and before His ascension. God never changed Sabbath to sun day. Roman emperor Constantine did in 321 A.D. after generations of Christian persecution. He was a sun worshipper. They will soon present sun day rest by Force of law as the “ solution “ for all the world’s current events. Come out of her My people. Please pray and consider the biblical seventh day sabbath from creation week. The papacy considers sun day observance as the “ mark “ of her authority. God’s seal is in the sabbath of the fourth commandment. His name title and territory.
The Greatest Man in History... He had no servants, yet they called him master, He had no degree, yet they called him teacher, He had no medicines, yet they called him healer, He had no army, yet Kings feared him, He won no military battles, yet he conquered the world, He did not live in a castle, yet they called him Lord, He ruled no nations yet, they called him King, He committed no crime, yet they crucified him, He was buried in a tomb, yet he lives today, He is Yeshua HaMashiac, Christ our Messiah 👑 King of the World, Jew and Gentile alike...

I come to understand better how things work in the spiritual realm when I read Pilgrim book Exactly what the book is written, that's what have gone through.. This is the way to seek the kingdom of God first. I wish Christian can find this way ...no demons can stand on your way, nor compromise the Gospel of Truth.
Thank you Vision Video for all the good Christian movies. Blessed are we to watch it, it brings us closer to Christ. It gives us an insight into the sacrifice made by men of God, their deep faith in His word. These films shape our character in Christ. 👍👍

Friend 'they' have cultivated a society,a fashion of British people,that certain religious types that "" it was a kind of ' cool' not to go to church,or celebrate' and follow the bible teachings,, long ago' you had the epilogue to close TV for the night,,well that stopped,,now its debauchery, swearing, nudity,and "pornographic dating shows",,and churches used for occasion, photographs, but not for regular visits,(embarrassment) etc,its so sad,,I can say at least there's a daily service 9.45 am on BBC radio 4 + Sunday service 8.10 am, ,,what is starting to happen for Christians,oh you can pray online in the comfort of your own home,, while you will see Muslims praying as 'one,' 'filling there mosques' proud to pray,""while religion in Britain as been made to be,unfashionable, ashamed,mocked,and only tragedy, bad times follows where there are no standards
@@terencebarrett2897 Hej I dont get it what you trying to say! If you are truly believe that God is in the middle of work with UK, you must pray rather than blaming...We are still the same as others all falling into worldly sin ; our own comforts and money etc...thats why we need to pray for this nation.
@@Phoenxi. Young Lee "my friend you are are right ' I go a bit off the mark when i comment,and i get confused,see I had strokes, and have brain diseases,etc ,what I was trying to say,a lot of our beautiful adorable churches appear empty,and maybe only get used at "wedding's christenings ,funerals,"" maybe these lockdowns will help the housebound in joining services,when my late mother was a child,she said her church was full,but over the years congregations have dwindled, but maybe that's worldwide, I always pray early morning+late at night , god bless you' Young Lee and your family, and everybody and everyone'
@@terencebarrett2897 Do you know that I am so glad that there is a Christian like you who have a concern for the nation and see that world have now changed so much in aspects of Christianity. I live in Sweden, here is even worse than what you have seen in UK or else where. Thats why God put us wherever we are right now, at least we can pray for the nation we are living in. I used to live in UK, so UK is my second home. I am sure God is awakening Christians in the world , we should be awake to be able to preach the gospel and also pray that God has compassion for his children and lost souls. May God bless you and your family also, and I am sure God hasn't left UK, and all we need to do is praying for the nations repentance, its not only nation itself , we all need to repent our sins which only way to get back to God, and he will lead the nation for another revival. UK was a Godly nation, and there were so many missionaris and preachers who gave there lives for the truth of Gospel, thats we are free access to the word of God now, so I AM SURE THAT GOD HASNT FORGOTTEN THE NATION. Lets keep praying for the nation and this sinful world.
"God will not lightly or easily lose His people. He has provided well for us: blood to wash us in; a Priest to pray for us, that we may be made to persevere; and, in case we foully fall, an Advocate to plead our cause. His name is JESUS" ~ John Bunyan (1628-1688) 48:37 Praise my Saviour Jesus Christ, for the life of John Bunyan. Reminded me of the verse: Act 14:22 strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. Oh how God moulds and leads us, even through our toughest of times. Currently going through it. But I was just encouraged like Romans 8:28 says that "All things work together for our Good for those who love him." Then in Rom 5:3 Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, Rejoicing in the time of suffering for we now that it is developing our Character. 12 years in prison is a long time. But the gem that was made was such a beauty.
Similar tales have appeared in Persian manuscripts dating back at least 1000 years. That a Christian went through similar experiences and wrote about them surprised me so much. The parallels are striking. It says that we are all God's children and that those who are faithful will all come to an end in the same way, regardless of their religion or time period. I am delighted to have been introduced to this book. For Muslims, God has no form or definitions that can be understood by the mind because intellect cannot comprehend it as it says in Quran. However, he will only judge you based on your heart rather than your mind, even if you imagine him as Budda, Jesus, or anyone else.
If he objected to the established church of the time The Church of England? what would he say to today's Church of England, same-sex marriages, and other biblical offenses?
John Bunyan followed Christ to the letter. Christ first last and always and everyone else second and third etc. He is resting in peace awaiting our Lord Jesus Christ's second coming. There will be joy in the morning indeed for him and many of God's children.
Becky...!...Thanks for your personal thoughts....You've quoted Hebrews....In reply, I would ask you to read what Christ said at the feast of Nicodemus...Unless a man be born again of water and of spirit....It might (only might) tell us we cannot expect to be made perfect in one single lifetime...That's the soul journey....All these wonderful experiences...some good....some not so.....yet e have free will...that which was given to us by our creator and we can take whatever TIME is needed to reach that state where we no longer need to return to this place.....
Timothy Noble, I'm afraid that interpretation goes against the biblical teaching concerning mankind's existence. Physically, humans live once, and die once. To live spiritually, one must choose to receive Christ as Saviour and Lord of the life. This begins with conversion, "being born again." That is what Jesus was sharing with Nicodemus. Without that born again, transforming experience we cannot see God because it would be totally impossible to make it to heaven. John 3:3 " Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto Thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." 2 Corinthians 5: 17 says: If any man (woman) be in Christ, he/she is a new creature, old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new." So that's conversion, the new birth. Afterwards we grow as a Christian by prayer, Bible Study, and sharing our faith with others. We live the life of a follower of Christ, a holy, sanctified, life, for we are to "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." Hebrews 12:14 If a man chooses not to become a born again Christian, then he is by default choosing to follow Satan, and die a second time. He dies physically, then he will die spiritually also by being burned up in the fire which is prepared for Satan and his angels. Because he did not believe God's word enough to prepare for heaven he will not be able to go to heaven. The God news is that he won't burn forever and ever as is commonly taught. He will burn untill he is consumed, just as a log in a woodstove burns and is consumed leaving only ashes. Isaiah 1:28 "And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed." And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them." Verse 31. (Tow is the coarse part of flax, separated from the finer part) "For behold the day cometh that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts. Malachi 4:1,3 The righteous will go to heaven. The wicked will be burned up by the same fire that cleanses and purifies the earth where the saved will eventually live forever and ever, amen. I hope this helps to clarify things for you. Blessings!
Nicolos Shaw (sorry if name not written correctly) showing translated versions of Bunyans Progress. Note please, first translation she shows is in Armenian, not Turkish.
Isaiah 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Laws concerning prison sure have changed a lot since John Bunyan was in one, talk about prison reform in our time we pay for confinement with our taxes where in their time they paid to be in jail.
It’s interesting ,for instance just a couple of hundred years ago , how skilled authors were in the English language. At first on reading Banyans works it seems archaic, but very quickly you learn comprehensively how brilliant he was. Perseverance with the King James Bible is the same . As time passes ( TikTok TikTok TikTok) we seem to of lost something.
I wanna get a couple of his books, I'm trying to write a Christian yet fantasy like book with hidden meanings I want to read some of his books to seek inspiration and idea,all of his books sound good, I want read all of them,
JESUS✝️REIGNS FOREVER MORE, HALLELUJAH!!!!!!! CELEBRATE AND GLORIFY JESUS EVERY DAY AND FOREVER MORE, HALLELUJAH!!!!!!! AMEN. I LOVE YOU JESUS✝️ REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND. Lord Jesus✝️have mercy on you🙏
Fancy having a mormon ad prior to the most famous classic Christian work outside the Bible: the titanic influential work of English literature. Sacrilege.
David not Solomon...What an interesting young man...!...The number of 'lifetimes' really depends on us, and our earthly circumstances, and of course 'free will' as to how many life experiences we must endure to learn the lessons of tolerance, kindness, love, etc.....Developing souls of course, 'bring back' with them wonderful gifts...The ability for new discoveries in Physics, chemistry, music, medicine astronomy and engineering...etc....Perhaps we might understand more from the biography of people like Edgar Cayce and the soul journey....This virus we are having to deal with at the moment, a hundred years ago would have 'wiped out' millions more that it has, but for modern discoveries. In any event, this soul journey, however long for me, is the pathway to the 'Celestial City Bunyan wrote so eloquently about. Good luck to you David not Solomon, enjoy your journey, however long it takes.
Matthew 12:45 Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
How is it that Sunday is referred to as the Sabbath, when in fact Sunday is the first day of the week and Saturday the Seventh? Could someone explain that please. Shalom🙏
That question he was asked back then of course its a simple question we either are going to become born again believers that get saved and set free from our sins and go to Heaven or become unbelievers that get lost in our sins get brought in bondage to them and wind up in that place called Hell. Hell that is place that would be so awful to even imagine or dream of.
Something similar to his outdoor meetings in the fields as well as radio, TV, and streaming and writing blogs, etc. I think he would actively protest at least all the church- related Covid craziness!

Friend 'they' have cultivated a society,a fashion of British people,that certain religious types that "" it was a kind of ' cool' not to go to church,or celebrate' and follow the bible teachings,, long ago' you had the epilogue to close TV for the night,,well that stopped,,now its debauchery, swearing, nudity,and "pornographic dating shows",,and churches used for occasion, photographs, but not for regular visits,(embarrassment) etc,its so sad,,I can say at least there's a daily service 9.45 am on BBC radio 4 + Sunday service 8.10 am, ,,what is starting to happen for Christians,oh you can pray online in the comfort of your own home,, while you will see Muslims praying as 'one,' 'filling there mosques' proud to pray,""while religion in Britain as been made to be,unfashionable, ashamed,mocked,and only tragedy, bad times follows where there are no standards
@@terencebarrett2897 Hej I dont get it what you trying to say! If you are truly believe that God is in the middle of work with UK, you must pray rather than blaming...We are still the same as others all falling into worldly sin ; our own comforts and money etc...thats why we need to pray for this nation.
@@Phoenxi. Young Lee "my friend you are are right ' I go a bit off the mark when i comment,and i get confused,see I had strokes, and have brain diseases,etc ,what I was trying to say,a lot of our beautiful adorable churches appear empty,and maybe only get used at "wedding's christenings ,funerals,"" maybe these lockdowns will help the housebound in joining services,when my late mother was a child,she said her church was full,but over the years congregations have dwindled, but maybe that's worldwide, I always pray early morning+late at night , god bless you' Young Lee and your family, and everybody and everyone'
@@terencebarrett2897 Do you know that I am so glad that there is a Christian like you who have a concern for the nation and see that world have now changed so much in aspects of Christianity. I live in Sweden, here is even worse than what you have seen in UK or else where. Thats why God put us wherever we are right now, at least we can pray for the nation we are living in. I used to live in UK, so UK is my second home. I am sure God is awakening Christians in the world , we should be awake to be able to preach the gospel and also pray that God has compassion for his children and lost souls. May God bless you and your family also, and I am sure God hasn't left UK, and all we need to do is praying for the nations repentance, its not only nation itself , we all need to repent our sins which only way to get back to God, and he will lead the nation for another revival. UK was a Godly nation, and there were so many missionaris and preachers who gave there lives for the truth of Gospel, thats we are free access to the word of God now, so I AM SURE THAT GOD HASNT FORGOTTEN THE NATION. Lets keep praying for the nation and this sinful world.
@@Phoenxi. I completely agree with you friend ,you and your family take care god bless you,nice speaking to you ✋😉
"God will not lightly or easily lose His people. He has provided well for us: blood to wash us in; a Priest to pray for us, that we may be made to persevere; and, in case we foully fall, an Advocate to plead our cause. His name is JESUS" ~ John Bunyan (1628-1688) 48:37
Praise my Saviour Jesus Christ, for the life of John Bunyan. Reminded me of the verse:
Act 14:22 strengthening the souls of the disciples, encouraging them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God.
Oh how God moulds and leads us, even through our toughest of times. Currently going through it. But I was just encouraged like Romans 8:28 says that "All things work together for our Good for those who love him." Then in Rom 5:3 Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,
Rejoicing in the time of suffering for we now that it is developing our Character. 12 years in prison is a long time. But the gem that was made was such a beauty.
Beautifully Done
Similar tales have appeared in Persian manuscripts dating back at least 1000 years. That a Christian went through similar experiences and wrote about them surprised me so much. The parallels are striking. It says that we are all God's children and that those who are faithful will all come to an end in the same way, regardless of their religion or time period. I am delighted to have been introduced to this book. For Muslims, God has no form or definitions that can be understood by the mind because intellect cannot comprehend it as it says in Quran. However, he will only judge you based on your heart rather than your mind, even if you imagine him as Budda, Jesus, or anyone else.
How well illustrated. Thanks for this
Thank you sweety for the video
Great man of God I want to see if I can get this book
thank you a great man of God and a work no doubt inspired by the Lord’s blessings
Awesomeeee
They make it sound almost dramatic but it would have been brutal and he would have well felt tormented spiritually during the imprisonment
Psalms 34:19
Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
what a nice video I like it very very very very very very very much
Anyone reading this, if you haven't repented yet, please REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.
I had no idea... lovely film, praise the Lord
Really great !!! Thank you
If he objected to the established church of the time The Church of England? what would he say to today's Church of England, same-sex marriages, and other biblical offenses?
The answer is obvious.
These are quality videos indeed.
Great book.
Writing Pilgrims Progress in prison mirrors Johns writing the Revelation of Christ on Patmos.
Wonderful!
10:01 Hears a voice within..
Thank you for this wonderful video
Good job, your videos are inspiring. God bless you.
John Bunyan followed Christ to the letter. Christ first last and always and everyone else second and third etc. He is resting in peace awaiting our Lord Jesus Christ's second coming. There will be joy in the morning indeed for him and many of God's children.
Becky...!...Thanks for your personal thoughts....You've quoted Hebrews....In reply, I would ask you to read what Christ said at the feast of Nicodemus...Unless a man be born again of water and of spirit....It might (only might) tell us we cannot expect to be made perfect in one single lifetime...That's the soul journey....All these wonderful experiences...some good....some not so.....yet e have free will...that which was given to us by our creator and we can take whatever TIME is needed to reach that state where we no longer need to return to this place.....
Timothy Noble, I'm afraid that interpretation goes against the biblical teaching concerning mankind's existence. Physically, humans live once, and die once. To live spiritually, one must choose to receive Christ as Saviour and Lord of the life. This begins with conversion, "being born again." That is what Jesus was sharing with Nicodemus. Without that born again, transforming experience we cannot see God because it would be totally impossible to make it to heaven. John 3:3 " Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto Thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God."
2 Corinthians 5: 17 says: If any man (woman) be in Christ, he/she is a new creature, old things are passed away, behold, all things are become new."
So that's conversion, the new birth. Afterwards we grow as a Christian by prayer, Bible Study, and sharing our faith with others. We live the life of a follower of Christ, a holy, sanctified, life, for we are to "Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord." Hebrews 12:14
If a man chooses not to become a born again Christian, then he is by default choosing to follow Satan, and die a second time. He dies physically, then he will die spiritually also by being burned up in the fire which is prepared for Satan and his angels. Because he did not believe God's word enough to prepare for heaven he will not be able to go to heaven. The God news is that he won't burn forever and ever as is commonly taught. He will burn untill he is consumed, just as a log in a woodstove burns and is consumed leaving only ashes.
Isaiah 1:28 "And the destruction of the transgressors and of the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the Lord shall be consumed."
And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them." Verse 31. (Tow is the coarse part of flax, separated from the finer part)
"For behold the day cometh that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the Lord of hosts. Malachi 4:1,3
The righteous will go to heaven. The wicked will be burned up by the same fire that cleanses and purifies the earth where the saved will eventually live forever and ever, amen. I hope this helps to clarify things for you. Blessings!

Dear Timothy, please change your mind. Please repent! I do not want to see you lost like this!

Note please, first translation she shows is in Armenian, not Turkish.
Isaiah 64:6
But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Laws concerning prison sure have changed a lot since John Bunyan was in one, talk about prison reform in our time we pay for confinement with our taxes where in their time they paid to be in jail.
Maybe this idea to make people convicted of crimes to pay for incarceration would curb crime if you could be sure they had actually did it.
Wilt thou leave thy sins and go to heaven, or have thy sins and go to hell? John Bunyan
I read the book
One of the greatest books you can read next to The Holy Bible.
La gente de habla hispana no sben inglés traducir los subtítulos
It’s interesting ,for instance just a couple of hundred years ago , how skilled authors were in the English language. At first on reading Banyans works it seems archaic, but very quickly you learn comprehensively how brilliant he was. Perseverance with the King James Bible is the same . As time passes ( TikTok TikTok TikTok) we seem to of lost something.
Everyone should have the freedom to choose their religion or not. Puritans fought for their right as today, we can choose to be religious or not.
Fantástica produção!

We've just got "Pilgrim's progress'' in our own language ''Kabyle'' in Algeria (North Africa).
David not Solomon...What an interesting young man...!...The number of 'lifetimes' really depends on us, and our earthly circumstances, and of course 'free will' as to how many life experiences we must endure to learn the lessons of tolerance, kindness, love, etc.....Developing souls of course, 'bring back' with them wonderful gifts...The ability for new discoveries in Physics, chemistry, music, medicine astronomy and engineering...etc....Perhaps we might understand more from the biography of people like Edgar Cayce and the soul journey....This virus we are having to deal with at the moment, a hundred years ago would have 'wiped out' millions more that it has, but for modern discoveries. In any event, this soul journey, however long for me, is the pathway to the 'Celestial City Bunyan wrote so eloquently about. Good luck to you David not Solomon, enjoy your journey, however long it takes.

Then goeth he, and taketh with himself seven other spirits more wicked than himself, and they enter in and dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Even so shall it be also unto this wicked generation.
How is it that Sunday is referred to as the Sabbath, when in fact Sunday is the first day of the week and Saturday the Seventh? Could someone explain that please. Shalom🙏
The ads are so annoying. Hate them.

The world worships money and not God. Hence your ads!
Materialism is the God of the affluent West and the ad-man is his prophet.
I agree. It's pure brain-washing. It should be illegal. If you can't sell your product with brain-washing people, it can't be much good.
@@GazGuitarz It costs money.
That question he was asked back then of course its a simple question we either are going to become born again believers that get saved and set free from our sins and go to Heaven or become unbelievers that get lost in our sins get brought in bondage to them and wind up in that place called Hell. Hell that is place that would be so awful to even imagine or dream of.
What would Bunyan have done today, with the so called guidelines to close churches because of Covid?
Something similar to his outdoor meetings in the fields as well as radio, TV, and streaming and writing blogs, etc. I think he would actively protest at least all the church- related Covid craziness!
