John Bunyan
The Holy War: Made by King Shaddai upon Diabolus, for the regaining of the metropolis of the world; or, the losing and taking again of the town of Mansoul
“Nothing can hurt you except sin; nothing can grieve me except sin; nothing can defeat you except sin. Therefore, be on your guard, my Mansoul.” ― John Bunyan, The Holy War
The allegorical masterpiece that gives valuable counsel on fighting the righteous fight of faith.
John Bunyan’s (1618-1688) The Holy War Made by King Shaddai Upon Diabolus for the Regaining of the Metropolis of the World or The Losing and Taking Again of the Town of Mansoul (1682), is a extraordinary classic to which the Christian world should accord rediscovered attention. Bunyan’s work is not merely a commentary on the Scripture, though it does shine illuminating light on Bible passages and truths. The Holy War in fact displays a refreshing grasp of the breadth and depth of Scripture, and Bunyan not only communicates the Scripture, but he uses the Scripture skillfully. The Holy War is essentially the teaching of the Bible regarding our salvation and subsequent growth in grace.
The work truly fits the description C. H. Spurgeon once offered for Bunyan’s other superb allegory entitled The Pilgrim’s Progress, "Next to the Bible, the book that I value most is John Bunyan's ‘Pilgrim's Progress’, it is the Bible in another shape."
This is Bunyan's great allegory on the progress of the Christian soul and of the history of the Christian church, appearing originally in 1692.
This masterpiece will become an instant family heirloom, introducing entire generations to the pilgrims' spiritual journey to truth.
