John BunyanHe that forgets his friend is ungrateful to him; but he that forgets his Saviour is unmerciful to himself.
John BunyanThe fear of God is the beginning of wisdom, and they that lack the beginning have neither middle nor end
John BunyanChrist is the desire of nations, the joy of angels, the delight of the Father. What solace then must that soul be filled with, that has the possession of Him to all eternity!
John BunyanTo lay hold of and receive the gospel by a true and saving faith is an act of the soul that has been made a new creature, which is the workmanship of God... Wherefore whoever receiveth the grace that is tendered in the gospel, they must be quickened by the power of God, their eyes must be opened, their understandings illuminated, their ears unstopped, their hearts circumcised, their wills also rectified, and the Son of God revealed in them.
John Bunyan
