The Complete Sayings of Jesus by Arthur Hinds [1927]

The Complete Sayings of Jesus

by Arthur Hinds

[1927]

   Like the Jefferson Bible, this is an attempt to edit the four gospels into a consistent account, in this case focusing on the words of Jesus. There is plenty of connecting narrative around the instances where Jesus speaks, so this is better than simply presenting each quote out of context. The focus on what Jesus is attributed as saying makes it easier to browse the core texts of the New Testament. All in all, a very useful reference, and a great read.
   PRODUCTION NOTES: In this etext, Jesus' words are highlighted in blue, slightly larger text. The date and age information was extracted from the copytext page headers and moved into the file title area in the online edition.

Pilgrim's Progress

by John Bunyan

[1678]

 

            Pilgrim's Progress is an allegory of a Christian's journey (here represented by a character called 'Christian') from the "City of Destruction" to the "Celestial City". Along the way he visits such locations as the Slough of Despond, Vanity Fair, the Doubting Castle, and the Valley of the Shadow of Death.

            Bunyan, the author, had very little formal education and a humble background. Nonetheless Pilgrim's Progress is considered one of the masterpieces of English literature, and is required reading for Christians who are on the spritual path in a world of temptations.

The Imitation of Christ by Thomas a Kempis ေဒါင္းၾကမယ္

The Imitation of Christ

by Thomas a Kempis

tr. by William Benham

[1886]

 

The 15th century treatise Of the Imitation of Christ is one of the most popular Christian books of all time. Although its authorship was disputed for a long time, it is generally now regarded as the product of Thomas a Kempis. The work is a manual of devotion assisting the soul in its pursuit of holiness and communion with God. Written as it was for the monastic life, it presents a high standard for spiritual life, and an ideal for devout Christians to aspire to. --J.B. Hare
