More quotes by George Whitefield
I offer you salvation this day the door of mercy is not yet shut, there does yet remain a sacrifice for sin, for all that will accept of the Lord Jesus Christ. He will embrace you in the arms of His love.
George Whitefield
I say salvation is the free gift of God. It is God's free grace, I preach unto you, not of works, lest anyone should boast. Jesus Christ justifies the ungodly. Jesus Christ passed by and saw you polluted with your blood and bid you live.
George Whitefield
Would ministers preach for eternity! They would then act the part of true Christian orators, and not only calmly and cooly inform the understanding, but, by persuasive, pathetic address, endeavour to move the affections and warm the heart.
George Whitefield
The riches of His free grace cause me daily to triumph over all the temptations of the wicked one, who is very vigilant, and seeks all occasions to disturb me.
George Whitefield
I began to read the Holy Scriptures upon my knees, laying aside all other books, and praying over, if possible, every line and word...I would be so overpowered with a sense of God's Infinite Majestey, that I would be contrained to throw myself on the ground, and offer my soul as a blank in His hands, to write on it what He pleased.
George Whitefield
God is well pleased when all our actions proceed from love, love to Himself, and love to immortal souls.
George Whitefield
You may have orthodox heads, and yet you may have the devil in your hearts.
George Whitefield
Come poor, lost, undone sinner, come just as you are to Christ.
George Whitefield
The righteousness of Jesus Christ is one of those great mysteries, which the angels desire to look into, and seems to be one of the first lessons that God taught men after the fall.
George Whitefield
Whole days and weeks have I spent prostrate on the ground in silent or vocal prayer.
George Whitefield
Open your hearts as wide as ever you will, the Spirit of the Lord shall fill them.
George Whitefield
The care of the soul is 'a matter of the highest importance' beyond any thing which can be brought into comparison with it.
George Whitefield
Thus was the King and the Lord of glory judged by man's judgment, when manifest in flesh: far be it from any of his ministers to expect better treatment.
George Whitefield
Believers keep up and maintain their walk with God by secret prayer. The spirit of grace is always accompanied with the spirit of supplication. It is the very breath of the new creature, the fan of the divine life, whereby the spark of holy fire, kindled in the soul by God, is not only kept in, but raised into a flame.
George Whitefield
It is very remarkable, that in the book of life, we find some almost of all kinds of occupations, who notwithstanding served God in their respective generations, and shone as so many lights in the world.
George Whitefield
Pray that I may be very little in my own eyes, and not rob my dear Master of any part of his glory.
George Whitefield
Ministers never write or preach so well as when under the cross.
George Whitefield
God enabled me to speak with the demonstration of the Spirit, and with power.
George Whitefield
I am tired in the Lord's work, but not tired of it.
George Whitefield
I was honored today with having a few stones, dirt, rotten eggs, and pieces of dead cat thrown at me
