Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners

I could have enlarged much in this my discourse of my temptations and troubles for sin; as also of the merciful kindness and working of God with my soul: I could also have stepped into a style much higher than this in which I have here discoursed and could have adorned all things more than here I have seemed to do but I dare not: God did not play in tempting of me; neither did I play when I sunk as into the bottomless pit when the pangs of hell caught hold upon me; wherefore I may not play in relating of them but be plain and simple and lay down the thing as it was; he that liketh it let him receive it and he that doth not let him produce a better. Farewell. My dear Children The milk and honey are beyond this wilderness. God be merciful to you and grant that you be not slothful to go in to possess the land. JOHN BUNYAN. John Bunyan was an Christian writer preacher and. Reformed Baptist.
