[REASONS WHY FEW ARE SAVED.] ~ Bunyan
The poor, carnal, ignorant world miss of heaven even because they love their sins, and cannot part with them. “Men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.†(Joh_3:19)

1. 1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.

Diana, that quote from Bunyan sounds harsh at first. But I think what he’s saying is that few people receive forgiveness because few people SEEK that forgiveness. The Bible is incredibly clear (as you can see in Poky’s comment above) that God never turns away those who come to him asking for forgiveness for their sins and mistakes. The problem isn’t that God doesn’t forgive people–it’s that not enough people repent and ask Him for that forgiveness.
