More quotes by George Whitefield
God has condescended to become an author, and yet people will not read his writings. There are very few that ever gave this Book of God, the grand charter of salvation, one fair reading through.
George Whitefield
Among the many reasons assignable for the sad decay of true Christianity, perhaps the neglecting to assemble ourselves together, in religious societies, may not be one of the least.
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
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
Open your hearts as wide as ever you will, the Spirit of the Lord shall fill them.
George Whitefield
People want to recommend themselves to God by their sincerity they think, 'If we do all we can, if we are but sincere, Jesus Christ will have mercy on us.'

George Whitefield
Oh let us continually keep faith in exercise, till it be entirely swallowed up in the boundless ocean of beatific vision.
George Whitefield
Come poor, lost, undone sinner, come just as you are to Christ.

George Whitefield
Numberless marks does man bear in his soul, that he is fallen and estranged from God but nothing gives a greater proof thereof, than that backwardness, which every one finds within himself, to the duty of praise and thanksgiving.
George Whitefield
Jesus was God and man in one person, that God and man might be happy together again.
George Whitefield
I was honored today with having a few stones, dirt, rotten eggs, and pieces of dead cat thrown at me
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
You may have orthodox heads, and yet you may have the devil in your hearts.
George Whitefield
The Christian world is in a deep sleep nothing but a loud shout can awaken them out of it!
George Whitefield
The reason why congregations have been so dead is, because they had dead men preaching to them. O that the Lord may quicken and revive them! How can dead men beget living children?
George Whitefield
Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners, even persecutors, the worst of sinners: his righteousness is sufficient for them his Spirit is able to purify and change their hearts.
