Summary "The Riches of Bunyan: Selected from His Works" by John Bunyan is a theological compilation written in the mid-19th century. This collection seeks to highlight the profound thoughts and insights of Bunyan, known for his deep piety and vivid prose, particularly focusing on topics such as the nature of God, sin, human redemption, and the Christian experience. Although his most famous work is "The Pilgrim’s Progress," this selection showcases the richness of his lesser-known writings, revealing fundamental Christian truths that remain relevant. The opening of the work sets the stage with a prefatory notice from Rev. William R. Williams, emphasizing Bunyan's significance as a theologian and writer. Williams expresses a desire to introduce Bunyan's work to a broader audience, highlighting his original style and profound understanding of Christian doctrine. In this early part of the text, the themes of the nature and attributes of God are explored, revealing insights into God's glory, majesty, holiness, justice, and mercy. Furthermore, Bunyan discusses humanity's position of sinfulness and the ensuing need for divine grace and salvation, inviting readers into a reflective, prayerful consideration of their relationship with God.
