Pilgrims Progress Lecture by Derek Thomas

All,

I went to a Lecture this morning at RPTS (3-hours in length) led by Dr. Derek Thomas of RTS-Jackson on Pilgrim's Progress, and John Bunyan in general. It was unbelievable. Dr. Thomas is a Godly man who really shook some foundations with his great words about the reality of the need for an understanding of conversion and assurance. Best shown in the fact while Christian is converted at the wicked gate he does not drop his burden till the sepulcher. Also I highly recommend you read Part II if you have not. Beautiful stuff.

They did record it on MP3 so I do not know if/when it will be available but I'll be on the lookout for it.

Major
