Hopeful convinced Christian not to end his life by giving him hope of reaching God’s land.
EXPLANATION:
In the famous Christian allegory ‘Pilgrim’s Progress’ by John Bunyan, the protagonist Christian meets the character Hopeful on his journey to God. Along with Hopeful many other characters join him but most of them perish long before the end as they are vices and don’t seek to travel the straight road. Almost towards the end of the journey Christian chooses the wrong road-the shorter by-pass. This brings him to the grounds of the Giant Despair. Here they are brutally tortured by the Giant and his wife.
Christian is so frustrated that he wants to commit suicide. Hopeful convinces him that there is hope of reaching the end of their pilgrimage. He has to patiently survive, but if he commits suicide he will be thrown into Hell like the others as suicide is a sin. This prevents Christian from committing suicide.
