The Pilgrim's Progress Bible Study (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798627966953)

John Bunyan wrote The Pilgrim's Progress to give people powerful lessons of how to follow God through life and how to see God's grace and mercy in everything we experience. His characters wrestle with the same issues we wrestle with. They stray and they conquer and succeed just as we do. Bunyan used The Pilgrim's Progress as a way to teach spiritual truth from the experiences and conversations of his characters.The Pilgrim's Progress was first published in the year 1678. Bunyan wrote it while in prison using what is called allegory, which is a story that can be interpreted to reveal a hidden meaning. In this case the hidden meaning behind everything that happens in the book is Bunyan's deep and rich understanding of God's Word, the Bible.This study is designed to be completed individually or as a discussion group. The fun in doing this Bible study in a group is that a new member joins your group, John Bunyan himself. He enters the room with his views of the Scripture from a 17th century cultural perspective. As we make our own observations from the Bible, his imagery makes them more colorful. As we interpret what the Bible says, his voice joins with ours about those same Bible verses. And as we work to apply God's Word, Bunyan's characters struggle with that same application.May God deeply enrich your relationship with him through this Bible study.
