Come and Welcome to Jesus Christ

About this book

There are few men whose writings have been more honored in the Christian world, or more distinguished for usefulness, than those of John Bunyan. His remarkable life, the simplicity, faithfulness, and success, with which he preached the Gospel, and his deep acquaintance with the windings of the human heart, all combine to give a peculiar interest to the productions of his pen. His Pilgrim's Progress, especially, seems to have gained universal popularity. The delineations of character in his writings are so true to life, and so accordant with Scripture representations, that the reader sees some features of his own heart in almost every page. It is this that makes his works so universally acceptable. The reader sees in them, as in a mirror, his own image. This little volume is designed to set forth the "Gospel Invitation"— the full and free offer of pardon and salvation to all who will come and receive it. The difficulties and objections which the sinner is so ready to raise, are one by one taken up, and their weakness and wickedness clearly exposed. It points out, in a striking manner, the various motives which should lead the sinner to the Savior, and that without delay. - Summary by Preface
