John Bunyan's epic story of the life of the Christian pilgrim and his experiences told under the similitude of a dream. UnabridgedIn a loathsome dungeon crowded with profligates and felons, John Bunyan breathed the very atmosphere of heaven; and there he wrote his wonderful allegory of the pilgrim's journey from the land of destruction to the celestial city. For over two hundred years that voice from Bedford jail has spoken with thrilling power to the hearts of men. Bunyan's Pilgrim's Progress and Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners have guided many feet into the path of life. Ellen G. White, The Great Controversy, 1911
This literary classic by Bunyan describes the internal Christian battle that rages between the spirit and the mind. This battle occurs because when a repentant sinner becomes born-again, while the spirit is converted, our soul - that is our mind, will, and emotions, is still in the process of being converted. The remedy to winning the battle over our mind, is to believe upon the faith that Jesus Christ already worked out for us when He lived upon this earth (Isa 26:12; Rom 3:22). When we are weak in faith and stumble, look to His faith, and believe that God the Father sees us through the filter of Christ's faith. It requires great discipline of mind, decided action, and strength of faith each day, to read the good promises contained in God's Word, and to wield them as a sword to cut down the lies of the enemy against our soul and against our identity as a child of God. But believe these good promises we must because the Word of God guarantees that if we will do this consistently, we will not become debilitated by unbelief, discouragement and despair so that we are put out of the race. Though there may be difficulties, hardships and perplexities in this life, Apostle Paul assures us of winning the spiritual battle waged against our mind and soul if we persevere in faith in patient continuance. Using the analogy of the town of Man-soul and the struggle for supremacy over the town between Prince Emmanuel and the wicked Diabolus the internal christian experience is perfectly described Victory in such warfare can only be gained by faith in the righteousness of Prince Emmanuel.
