John Bunyan was born in Bedforsdhire, England in 1628. His early life included a good deal of degradation as well as a stint in the army. Even after he had married, Bunyan was what we would call today a wayward Christian. He later realized he was no Christian at all. The story is oft told of how Bunyan heard a sermon one Sunday morning against the evils of Sunday sports. That afternoon, while playing "cats", Bunyan heard a voice in his heart which said, "Wilt thou leave thy sins and go to Heaven, or have thy sins and go to hell?" Those words would not leave him over the next few months. In one of God’s divine encounters, John Bunyan began to turn from religion in form to Christ in fact. What was the source of the voice he heard? Comment! Tell me!

"Wilt thou leave thy sins and go to Heaven, or have thy sins and go to hell?"
Are these the words of the Holy Spirit to his heart? Or are they the words of the free offer preacher he heard that morning?
Was John Bunyan affected or infected by thoes words?
My opinion is he was infected!
Or else the HS doesn't understand His own plan of salvation! I don't think so.
