Elstow, Bedfordshire. After a brief period at the village free school, Bunyan learned the tinker's trade, which he followed intermittently throughout his life. Joining the parliamentary army in 1644, he served until 1647. The reading of several pious books and a constant study of the Bible intensified Bunyan's religious beliefs, and in 1653 he began acting as lay preacher for a congregation of Baptists in Bedford. In this capacity he came into conflict with the Quakers led by George Fox and turned to writing in defense of his beliefs. In 1660 agents of the restored monarchy arrested him for unlicensed preaching, and he remained in prison for the next 12 years. During this period Bunyan wrote nine books, the most famous of which is Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners (1666), a fervent spiritual autobiography. Soon after his release in 1672 he was reimprisoned briefly and wrote the first part of his masterpiece

49. The Baptist Page - Portraits - John Bunyan (Print Version) Biographical article. http://www.baptistpage.org/Portraits/print/print_bunyan.html

A Baptist Page Portrait John Bunyan "Their talk ... was about a new birth, the work of God on their hearts, also how they were convinced of their miserable state by nature. They talked how God had visited their souls with His love in the Lord Jesus, and with what words and promises they had been refreshed, comforted, and supported against the temptations of the devil." Later those same women introduced Bunyan to their pastor, John Gifford. While not Baptist, Gifford and the church he pastored were definitely congregational and definitely not "high church." The church was comprised of both Congregational and Baptist believers. It was under Gifford’s preaching and teaching that Bunyan at last came to Christ. Bunyan's, Grace Abounding is his own spiritual biography. In it he tells how the verse, "He hath made peace by the blood of His cross" (Colossians 1:20), finally broke through to his heart and he was truly saved. Several years (1656) after coming to Christ, Bunyan began to preach at the same church which Gifford had pastored. He was above all a preacher who would proclaim God's Word anywhere and everywhere:

Home Authors Titles Keyword Search ... Reference John Bunyan John Bunyan is perhaps the most popular religious writer in the English language. His best known work, The Pilgrim's Progress has been translated into more languages than any book other than the Bible. Bunyan was born at Elstow, England, about a mile from Bedford, the son of a poor tinker (a maker of metal utensils). He probably acquired most of his knowledge of the English language from reading the Bible. As a young man, Bunyan served in the Army and fought in the English Civil War on the side of the Roundheads. He married in 1649, and among his new wife's possessions were copies of Dent's Plain Man's Pathway to Heaven and Bayly's Practice of Piety . Reading these had a profound influence on Bunyan's spiritual life. In 1653 he joined Pastor Gifford's Independent Church, in Bedford. Shortly thereafter he began to preach, and his preaching proved to be popular with his listeners, but not with the magistrate in Bedford who sentenced him to jail for "unauthorized preaching." Bunyan was set free, but he again jailed after he refused to stop preaching in public. His imprisonment was intermittent from 1660 to 1672, but he used the time to begin writing The Pilgrim's Progress and several other works, including some poetry. Bunyan's major works are

Bunyan was born in Elstow, near Bedford. At 16, he was drafted into the Parliamentary army to fight in the Civil War, probably his first experience of stern and impassioned Puritanism. In 1649 he married his first wife, Margaret Bentley, who introduced him to religious work. A Baptist, he was imprisoned in Bedford from 1660 until 1672 for unlicensed preaching and wrote Grace Abounding in 1666, which describes his early spiritual life. He started to write during a second jail sentence from 1676 until 1677. Written in straightforward language with fervour and imagination, it achieved immediate popularity and was highly influential. makeButton("REFERENCE.HOME","R1")
