Produktbeschreibung
Grace Abounding To The Chief Of Sinners is a spiritual autobiography written by John Bunyan, a 17th-century English Baptist preacher and author. The book tells the story of Bunyan's conversion to Christianity and his struggles with doubt, temptation, and sin. Bunyan recounts his early life as a poor tinker and his descent into a life of sin and debauchery. He describes the deep sense of guilt and shame he felt as he realized the extent of his wrongdoing and his separation from God. Through a series of encounters with other Christians and through his own personal study of the Bible, Bunyan eventually experiences a profound conversion and is filled with a sense of God's grace and forgiveness. However, even after his conversion, Bunyan continues to struggle with doubts and fears, and he describes the many trials and tribulations he faced as he sought to live a faithful Christian life. Throughout the book, Bunyan emphasizes the importance of faith, prayer, and the study of scripture in overcoming sin and growing in spiritual maturity. His honest and introspective account of his own spiritual journey has made Grace Abounding To The Chief Of Sinners a beloved classic of Christian literature.WHEN, by the good hand of my God, I had for five or six years together, without any interruption, freely preached the blessed gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ; and had also, through His blessed grace, some encouragement by His blessing thereupon; the devil, that old enemy of man's salvation, took his opportunity to inflame the hearts of his vassals against me, insomuch that at the last, I was laid out for by the warrant of a justice, and was taken and committed to prison.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

Autorenporträt
John Bunyan (baptised 30 November 1628 - 31 August 1688) was an English writer and Puritan preacher best remembered as the author of the Christian allegory The Pilgrim's Progress, which also became an influential literary model. In addition to The Pilgrim's Progress, Bunyan wrote nearly sixty titles, many of them expanded sermons.Bunyan came from the village of Elstow, near Bedford. He had some schooling and at the age of sixteen joined the Parliamentary Army during the first stage of the English Civil War. After three years in the army he returned to Elstow and took up the trade of tinker, which he had learned from his father. He became interested in religion after his marriage, attending first the parish church and then joining the Bedford Meeting, a nonconformist group in Bedford, and becoming a preacher. After the restoration of the monarch, when the freedom of nonconformists was curtailed, Bunyan was arrested and spent the next twelve years in prison as he refused to give up preaching. During this time he wrote a spiritual autobiography, Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, and began work on his most famous book, The Pilgrim's Progress, which was not published until some years after his release.
