I love Pilgrims Progress it is about man on a journey his name is Christiam ,He meets all sorts of people they are called by strange names that sum up their character.There is a point on his journey they came to a hill called Difficulty on either side there where two broad roads.He and his companions made a choice as to which way they would go, we read of a man called Formalist he chose to go to the left ,which led him into a dark wood.Did he but know it, the road was called danger,and he lost his way forever.Christians other companion called Hypocrisy chose to go to the right, which led him unto rough ground , and full of holes.he did not know that the road was called Destruction.Here he fell, and rose no more.As for Christian, he paused and drank at a spring to refresh himself. Then after looking both ways, he started briskly straight on up the hill called Difficulty.Let us remember the road that leads to heaven is not paved with gold,no there will be many difficuties on the way many inticements, God has not promised us skies always blue. Matthew 24 v13 tells us,that one who endures to the end will be saved, it reminds us that the Christian life must be one of steadfast faith until the end of ones life,facing trials and persecution with perseverance.
