John Bunyan was an English preacher, but today he's most famous for writing the seminal Pilgrim's Progress, one of history's most famous and popular allegorical works. Bunyan even has a festival in his honor within the Church of England. Though not as well known as Pilgrim's Progress, Justification by an Imputed Righteousness is an important treatise Bunyan wrote about how Christians can save themselves: "No Way to Heaven but by JESUS CHRIST. I. By justification with God, we stand clear, quit, free, or in a saved condition, in the approbation of His holy law. II. By justification with men, we stand clear and quit from just ground of reprehension with them. All by the imputation of the righteousness of Jesus Christ, in which we have faith working by love."

While this treatise is not as well known as Pilgrim's Progress Bunyan wrote A Treatise of the Fear of God in 1679, and in it he discusses why Christians should love, respect, and "fear" God. Essentially, that fear of God will compel Christians to try to right their wrongs

John Bunyan could be said to have authored the most influential book in the English language (other than the King James Bible) – The Pilgrim’s Progress. But he has also written another dramatic allegorical novel – The Holy War. Bunyan’s plan for his readers was for them to experience the struggles of the city of Mansoul as a fierce battle rages to take control of it. However, alongside this knife–edge drama Bunyan wished his readers to understand how the struggles of their souls ran in parallel to the struggles of the wretched inhabitants of that place. The righteous and honourable ruler Shaddai and his son Immanuel rule Mansoul with justice and equity. But the ruler of darkness – Prince Diabolus – has other plans. With his evil captains and their battalions Diabolus plots the fall and destruction of the once happy city. The first to fall is Captain Resistance as Diabolus knows that there is only one route into the city and that it can only be breached through the permission of the people of Mansoul itself. With Captain Resistance gone, the city is laid open to Diabolic lies and the next to fall is Lord Innocency and then the city is lost. So begins a story of treachery and deceit, foolishness and pride, forgiveness and final redemption. In fact this is, as Bunyan intended it, the story of a sinner saved by the grace of God.
