The Barren Fig Tree - John Bunyan

<p><strong>This Christian Classic – The Barren Fig Tree --  introduces and orients the reader to critical biblical/theological thinking.  Bunyan’s presentation is written with a clarity that fosters biblical thought and facilitates Bible comprehension. You won’t be disappointed.</strong></p><p><strong>John Bunyan—author of Pilgrim's Progress at one time second only to the Bible in its popularity—writes on Jesus' parable of the "barren fig tree" which was given a second chance: three years to bear fruit. Bunyan himself was imprisoned for the Gospel and uses his broad knowledge of Scripture to paint a worthy picture of God's mercy and justice in this parable: he gives every man and woman time and a chance to seek repentance but the time does not last forever. </strong></p><p><strong>It’s impossible to measure the influence of John Bunyan over the centuries. His works remain in print and are widely read which shouldn’t surprise us.</strong></p>
