A Map Showing the Order and Causes of Salvation and Damnation
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
According to the author’s intent, this map should be used to place oneself on the road to salvation or damnation, according to their current state. Following along the paths of the map, the Christian traces their steps toward heaven, with knowledge of where they have been along with foresight to the challenges that await them. The same follows for the damned. An amazing theological and artistic work, this map makes for quite an interesting study of Bunyan’s theology of judgment.

John Bunyan (1628–1688) is one of the most prominent Puritans of all time. Bunyan was well known as a respected preacher during his lifetime and remembered through his writing to this day—namely The Pilgrim's Progress.
After joining the Bedford Baptist Church of Bedford, England, in 1654, Bunyan began preaching in nearby villages. He was prosecuted under an Elizabethan act against nonconformity and imprisoned for three months which was extended to twelve years. Bunyan became the pastor of St. John's Church the same month as his release from prison.
The author of more than 60 books, Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, Holy War, and his autobiographical book Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners, gained a prominent and unique place in history. The Works of John Bunyan (3 vols.) includes 61 Bunyan-penned classics.
