Christ is the sum of the whole Bible, prophesied, typified, prefigured, exhibited, demonstrated, to be found in every leaf, almost in every line, the Scriptures being but as it were the swaddling bands of the child Jesus.

Quotes by John Bunyan
The best prayers have often more groans than words.
In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart.
No man, without trials and temptations, can attain a true understanding of the Holy Scriptures.
Temptations, when we meet them at first, are as the lion that roared upon Samson; but if we overcome them, the next time we see them we shall find a nest of honey within them.
The difference between true and false repentance lies in this: the man who truly repents cries out against his heart; but the other, as Eve, against the serpent, or something else
One leak will sink a ship, and one sin will destroy a sinner.
Whatever contradicts the Word of God should be instantly resisted as diabolical.
The spirit of prayer is more precious than treasures of gold and silver.
Great grace and small gifts are better than great gifts and no grace.
What God says is best, is best, though all the men in the world are against it.
Hope is never ill when faith is well.
Pray often, for prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan.
Saint abroad, and a devil at home.
