The Works of John Bunyan: 3 Volume Set

John Bunyan is best known for his famous allegorical works, The Pilgrim's Progress and The Holy War, his autobiographical Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners and his allegorical novel The Life and Death of Mr. Badman. While justly famous for their literary merit, their real importance lies in Bunyan's portrayal of the sin of man, the grace of God and the nature of the Christian's life. These themes were Bunyan's great passion, and for them he was prepared to suffer the hardship of imprisonment. But his exposition of them was not confined to allegory, and in his many other works, like Come and Welcome to Jesus Christ and An Exposition of the First Ten Chapters of Genesis, we find Bunyan writing as the outstanding pastor-evangelist he was.

Individual volumes of the best-known of Bunyan's writings have long been available. These three quality volumes, first edited by George Offor (1853 and 1862) constitute the only available standard edition of his works.

Author:

Born in 1628 in Elstow, England, John Bunyan did not display a serious love for Christ until after he got married. Then, after a group of women talked to him about Christ, Bunyan was converted by the Lord and was baptized. By 1655, he was preaching. He was imprisoned more than once for preaching without official permission, for about 15 years in total, and he spent much of that time writing. John Bunyan books include his masterpiece, Pilgrim's Progress, which is widely claimed as the most read book in history, besides the Bible. Christians over the centuries have identified with this allegorical classic that describes each stage of Christian experience. Readers can find the majority of John Bunyan's books in the outstanding three-volume set, titled The Works of John Bunyan (also available in individual volumes: 1, 2 and 3
