Bunyan finally puts the issue of his sin away.
229. But one day, as I was passing in the field, and that too
with some dashes on my conscience, fearing lest yet all was not
right, suddenly this sentence fell upon my soul, Thy righteousness
is in heaven; and methought withal, I saw, with the eyes of my
soul, Jesus Christ at God's right hand; there, I say, as my
righteousness; .. I also saw, moreover, that it was not my good
frame of heart that made my righteousness better, nor yet my bad
frame that made my righteousness worse; for my righteousness was
Jesus Christ himself, the same yesterday, and today, and for ever.
