The complexities of the Christian life are often overlooked, but in The Holy War Bunyan has found a way to lay everything bare. Using the analogy of a town under siege to represent a human soul, he goes deeply into the whole matter of true spiritual warfare. He describes the different methods of the Enemy and the mistakes that people make which enable him to get an advantage. He also shows how Emmanuel, with infinitely greater wisdom and power, ultimately is able to step in, redeem and preserve.
Although not always the simplest of books to read, those willing to persevere are richly rewarded with powerful insights and deep revelations about the whole matter of redemption, which can only cause them to be led into greater worship and adoration of the Saviour.
This edition retains Bunyan's own powerful diction, reset for a new generation.
