Here begins the actual reading of "Grace Abounding..." in which Bunyan tells of his wretched life before conversion. Filthy sins, then religious sins... We see in this true story of a real man, the inspiration for "Pilgrim's progress."

Before actual reading of Bunyan's classic autobiography, I share the words of GEORGE OFFOR, editor of the 1875 edition of the 1666 book. Then, Bunyan's own preface to "GRACE ABOUNDING to the Chief of Sinners." Next time, we begin his actual relating of his life previous to his conversion.

Israel territory filled with non-Jews. The reign of Hezekiah challenged by Assyria. His prayer, Isaiah's answer from God.

The final kings of Israel, all evil. The Assyrians come and take Israel captive. Only Judah remains. Hezekiah's reign in Judah begins.

Descendants of Jehu sit on the throne as promised. Elisha dies but raises a man from death after he (Elisha) is buried! Clash of Israel and Judah. Uzziah and Jeroboam II ascend to the throne.

Jehu reforms Israel... to a point. Then he refuses to depart from the sins of Jeroboam and all the rest. The queen mother, Athaliah, slaughters her family and takes control of Judah. Joash escapes her evil intention and with Jehoiada's help, replaces her. The repairs of the temple.

Massive revival history of 18th-19th century America leaves us wondering if it can happen again.
