In the text, specific characters serve as an allegory for distractions that one must resist to live a life of faith. which quotation from the text best develops this idea? a.)“he meets hopeful, who has recently converted to christianity after witnessing the courage with which faithful faced death.” b.)“…the two pilgrims successfully resist flatterer, who tries to trap them with a net, and atheist, who tries to convince them that the celestial city does not exist.” c.)“christian tries to convince ignorance that goodness is not enough, for faith is also necessary, but ignorance does not believe him,…” d.) “thus prepared, he continues onward, fighting off a monster named apollyon, who is a form of satan and who tries unsuccessfully to tempt christian away from god.”

I believe the correct answer is: “…the two pilgrims

successfully resist Flatterer, who tries to trap them with a net, and Atheist,

who tries to convince them that the Celestial City does not exist.”

    In this excerpt from “Pilgrim's Progress” (1678), a

Christian allegory written by John Bunyan, specific characters that serve as an

allegory for distractions that one must resist to live a life of faith are

Flatterer and Atheist which try to divert tempt Christian and Hopeful from the

proper path. Therefore, the quotation that best develops this idea is:

    “…the two pilgrims successfully resist Flatterer, who tries

to trap them with a net, and Atheist, who tries to convince them that the

Celestial City does not exist.”
