First published in 1682, John Bunyan’s allegorical novel The Holy War is a classic of Christian
literature whose spiritual insight rivals that of even his most famous
work, The Pilgrim’s Progress. It tells the
story of Mansoul, a utopia built to exalt the greatness and honor of its
creator and leader, King Shaddai. However, when the wicked Diabolus, a former high
servant of Shaddai’s and the king of the blacks, assaults Mansoul, the town
forgets its benevolent king and falls under his iniquitous rule. With the
citizens of his beloved city lost to sin and vice, Shaddai sends his son,
Prince Emmanuel, to deliver them from Diabolus’ tyranny.
An epic tale of good
versus evil, The Holy War is not only
a masterpiece of religious literature, but also an entertaining and engaging story for all listeners.
