JohnBunyan约翰班扬生 平和天路历程
John Bunyan’s life
John Bunyan was born in 1628 to Thomas and Margaret Bunyan, in Bunyan's End in the parish of Elstow, Bedfordshire, England. His mother died when he was 15,and 13-year-old sister died a few weeks later. A few months later when John was 16 he was drafted into Cromwell’s army (war between parliament and the King Charles I)He was taught the trade of a tinker by his father (a mender of pots, utensils,) this was not a highly regarded trade.
He was married at about 20 to his first wife (about
which we know little, not even her name). She brought little to the marriage except for two books, one of which was an allegory .
John Bunyan was released in January 1672, when Charles II issued the Declaration of Religious Indulgence.
In the same month as his release, John Bunyan became pastor of St John's Church and, on the 9 May, Bunyan was the recipient of one of the first licences to preach as an independent preacher, under the new law. Because of his preaching, Bunyan became popular in Bedfordshire and several surrounding counties, and he spoke to large crowds and congregations in places as far away as London. His own congregation at the independent Baptist church in Bedford grew strongly and many village chapels, for miles around Bedford, owe their roots to Bunyan's influence. As his fame and popularity as a preacher increased, he became affectionately known as 'Bishop Bunyan'.
In 1666, John was briefly released for a few weeks, before being re-arrested - again, for preaching - and sent back to Bedford's County gaol, where he remained for a further six years. During that time, he wove taglaces to support his family and preached to his fellow prisoners - a congregation of about sixty. In his possession were two books, John Foxe's Book of Martyrs, the Bible, a violin he had made out of tin, a flute he'd made from a chair leg and a supply of pen and paper. Both music and writing were integral to J59, Bunyan married again, to Elizabeth (surname unknown), by whom he had two more children Sarah (born 1667)and Joseph (born 1672).
The Bedford Jail was like all English jails of the day, a stink hole, filthy, no sanitation, little water or food, little warmth in the winter.
In 1658 his wife died, leaving John with 4 children, one of whom was blind. Aged 30, he was arrested for preaching at Eaton Socon and indicted for preaching without a license, but this offence did not result in imprisonment and he continued preaching.
