John Bunyan (1628-1688) was a British Dissenting minister who wrote about religious doctrine and Christian life. Another great allegorical story by this gifted writer; The battle between Diabolus (Satan) and Emmanuel (Christ) over Mansoul. After slaying Captain Resistance and Innocence, Diabolus found it easy to enter Mansoul through Eargate and Eyegate. After these two were dead, the rest of the citizens acted as if they had found a fool's paradise. They were pleased with forbidden fruit, ate it, and became intoxicated by eating it. But king Shaddai sent His son Emmanuel (Christ) to recapture Mansoul.
