"Where are you going?" asked Worldly Wiseman. "Your backpack must be heavy because I can t e l l you are very tired."

"Yes i t is very h e a v y , but I'm golng t o t h e narrow g a t e so that I c a n ' r e m o v e this heavy burden I a m carrying and then I will f e e l better," answered Christian. -

Then Worldly Wiseman pointed a t Chr ist ian and said, "WheTe did you hear that?"

"Teacher to ld me," answered Enriat ian. "Liaten t o what I te l l you," said Worldly Wiseman, "the one who

t o l d you is a l i e r for you must f i r s t get r i d of your burden and then you w i l l feel bet ter and be able t o experience God's blessings to you."

"Yes but I am not able t o get r i d of it," said Christian.

"Yes but that is just what I read in this book," said Christ ian. "But I'm tel l ing you," said Worldly Wisernan, "I know people say

t h a t tha t book helps people bu t actual ly i t just increases the i r hardships. Fol low what 1 t e l l you so that you wi l l have peace and forget a l l your hardships."

So Chr i s t i an hes i ta ted b u t he was convinced by wha t Wor ld ly Wiseman said because he rea l l y wanted to have his heavy burden removed and so he asked wh ich was the way t o fo l low.

Then Wor ld ly Wiseman said, "Go to t h a t moun ta in and the f i r s t house you reach is it."

So Chr i s t i an went where he directed.

On his way there Chr ist ian looked up and saw a boulder about t o fa l l . Then he was very fr ightened and just stood there. A f t e r a while it suddenly began to thunder and l ightening and he became a l l the more frightened. His burden seemed to get heavier and t ie

was perspiring because of his fear.

Then he was sorry about the wrong he had done and when h e looked up he saw Teacher and Teacher asked h im, "Why a r e you here?"

But Chr is t ian was so ashamed that he didn't say anything.

Then Teacher said, "Aren' t you the one I m e t c r y i n g a t D e s t r u t t i o n ? "

Then they knelt together and prayed to Cod end Teacher asked God to help Chriotian'and then they separated.

- Christian went on his way determined to keep on and he didn't

atop to talk to people he met because he had learned his lesson.

A f t e r a while he reached the gate and he looked up and saw a sign which aaid, "Knock and it w i l l be opened for you." 9 0 he knocked.

A f t e r a whi le the door opened and there was a man named Kindness. H e asked Chr is t ian what his name.was, where he came f r o m and what he needed.

Chr is t ian repl ied, "I a m one o f the sinners f r o m our p lace called Destruct ion. I l e f t there because I r e a d t h a t our place would b e destroyed.

As soon as he had said tha t Kindness quickly pul led h i m inside. Chr ist ian asked why he had done that and Kindness said, "The reason why I pulled you i n is t ha t the master of the ev i l ones is nearby and whenever he sees anyone t ry ing t o enter here he t r ies t o k i l l them.

So then Chr is t ian kep t going and when he arr ived a t the house he knocked and a person opened the door. Christ ian asked for Explainer and the person went and cal led h im. When he arr ived Chr is t ian told h i m that Kindness had sent him.

Explainer answered, "The f i re is l i ke the grace of God i n our l ives and the person pouring water on the f i re is l ike the devi l who tempts people. The reason the f i r e can't be put out is that there i s

So they went end lookkd and sure enough the re was a person pour ing on gas. Then Expla iner said, "This person is Jesus.

Then Explainer said, "Wait, I have something to show you yet before you leav'e." So they went into a dark room where therewas a very sad person who was obviously in a p i t i fu l state.

Then he jumped up and went on cl imbing up the mountain. On the way he met two people named Doubt fu l end Ashamed. H e asked them, "Why are you going back?"

They answered saying, "Because there is a l ion i n the way end this t r a i l just keeps get t ing more diff icult. '

So Christ ian was fr ightened but he said, " I f I return i t w i l l be harder than i f I keep on going because even i f the way is . fr ighten ing I w i l l f ind eterna l l i f e i f I continue so it's best that I just keep on going."

Then he immediately ran back to get his paper. As he was running he cried saying, "Why when I am going somewhere do I stop to sleep?"

When he got to where he had slept he looked a l l around and found the paper under the bench and he was overjoyed because this paper was l ike his ticket to get to where he was going.

So he put the paper in to his pocket and. began, c l imbing again bu t i t was almost dark alrea'dy and he thought that i f he had not slept he might already have reached his destination. He also thought about what Doubt fu l and Ashamed had said about the l ion and he said to himself, "If they come out a f t e r me there won't 'be anything l e f t of me." Then he arr ived at the top o f the mountain and he saw a magnif icent house l ike the house of a King.

Chr is t ian was te r r i f i ed but he took courage and obeyed what Watchfu l sajd. When he got inside he said, "May I sleep here tonight?"

"As for me, 1 was Troubled before b u t now 1 have become Christ ian, and 1 have come f rom the place cal led Destruction," said Christian.

"Why did you get here so late?" said Watchful. "I a m on my way to the King's house i n heaven b u t I was

When Teacher had said that they l e f t again. Then they came to a town called Vanity because the people who lived there were vain. The people were gathered together in that town and they were showing off all sorts of things.

The rulers of the people in the town of Vanity were Belsebub, Monster , Overea t and other demons. A l l the wicked things which give pleasure to people were there and these things were temptat ions to people on their way t o heaven.

When they got to that town the people surrounded them and said, "Wow, the clothes and their language is d i f f e ren t f r o m ours." They looked a t each other and laughed a t the two travel lers saying, "They are worthless people."

They showed them a l l kinds of things to t empt t h e m but . Bel iever and Chr is t ian knew the ev i l results a f these things and just went on wi thout paying any at tent ion.

But there was one merchant who joked t h e m saying, "What are you looking for to buy?"

Chr is t ian answered saying, "What we are looking for is not sold on this ea r th for what w e are looking for is e terna l l i f e w i t h God."

The police heard t h e commotion and went to f ind out the cause. The people said, "These people are the cause."

So they took Christ ian and Bel iever and questioned them. They answered saying, " W e a re strangers going through this town on our way to heaven and we didn't do any wrong."

But the police were not satisfied w i th w h a t C h r i s t i a n and Bel iever said so they beat t h e m and splattered, t h e m wi th mud.

Then they put them in a prison where they could be seen by the people. The people laughed a t t h e m and did whatever they l iked but Bel iever and Chr is t ian bore i t si lently and pat ient ly just concentrat ing on God.

Then a disagreement arose over Believer and Christian, for some said they were good people while others said they were bad and so the people fought among themselves.

Then Christ ian and Hopeful wanted to leave so they went together w i th the shepherds un t i l they came to another mountain. There the shepherds took out a telescope and said, "Here look through this and you w i l l see the door o f the King's house."

So Hopefu l and Christ ian took i t and looked through it bu t they couldn't see much because o f the shining brightness o f what they were looking at.

As they approached the King's house they saw that i t was made of gold and even the streets were made of gold. They could also hear voices inside singing, "Le t us praise our Savior who holds the reward he wi l l give to his people."

Then they came to a beautiful garden. There they saw a rnan and they asked him, "Whose garden is this?" . ,

The man answered saying, "It belongs to the King and he made i t for the encouragement and enjoyment of all those who travel to hi8 house."

When they got to the middle of the r iver the current was so strong that Chr is t ian would have been swept away i f Hopefu l hadn't grabbed hold of hirn.
