• Pilgrim's Progress - "Salvation" Christian gets to the cross where his burdens are removed and tossed into the grave to be seen no more.  He is given new clothes and scroll to read for direction and comfort.  He also comes across men, Simple, Sloth and Presumption, who were fast asleep and did not seem concerned that there was a lion about that may come upon them and destroy them.  "Formalist & Hypocrisy" Two men climb over the wall thinking that they can get to Zion their own way without
