In this episode, we explore the character of Ignorance from John Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress—perhaps the author’s most chilling portrayal of false faith. Coming from the “Country of Conceit,” Ignorance walks the same path toward the Celestial City, yet trusts in self-righteousness and subjective feelings rather than the sure Word of God.

We examine how Bunyan uses Ignorance to expose the deadly danger of sincerity without truth, highlighting the critical difference between justification by faith alone and salvation by works. Through this study, we uncover how the deceitful human heart can masquerade as faith, why Scripture must be our ultimate authority, and how to recognize this “heartfelt ignorance” in our own day.

• Ignorance’s background and spiritual errors

• Self-righteousness vs. faith in Christ
