Transcribed from the 1905 The Religious Tract Society edition by David Price
"Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners" by John Bunyan is a theological autobiography written in the late 17th century. This reflective work chronicles Bunyan's profound spiritual journey, particularly emphasizing his struggles with sin, guilt, and the grace of God that ultimately led to his conversion and faith in Jesus Christ. The opening of this work introduces Bunyan's background, detailing his humble upbringing and his early life marked by sin and rebellion against God. He describes the internal turmoil he faced as a child, grappling with fear and haunting thoughts of damnation. As he transitions into adulthood, his life is characterized by a deep exploration of religious matters, driven by various temptations and doubts. Bunyan recounts his initial rejection of faith, despite moments of awareness and fear regarding his sinful state. Throughout this opening portion, his sincere reflections on feeling lost and in despair suggest a candid journey against a backdrop of spiritual awakening and highlight the significant role of divine mercy in his eventual redemption.
