Man is nothing he hath a free will to go to hell, but none to go to heaven, till God worketh in him and you dishonour God by denying election. You plainly make salvation depend, not on God's 'free grace' but on Man's 'free will.'

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
O that unbelievers would learn of faithful Abraham, and believe whatever is revealed from God, though they cannot fully comprehend it! Abraham knew God commanded him to offer up his son, and therefore believed, notwithstanding carnal reasoning might suggest may objections.
George Whitefield
To preach more than half an hour, a man should be an angel himself or have angels for hearers.
George Whitefield
He [Jesus Christ] loves to see poor sinners coming to Him, He is pleased to see them lie at His feet pleading His promises and if you thus come to Christ, He will not send you away without His Spirit no, but will receive and bless you.
George Whitefield
All I can say is I look for perpetual conflicts and struggles in this life, and I hope for no other peace, only a cross, while on this side of eternity.
George Whitefield
Know, by sad experience, what it is to be lulled to sleep with a false peace. Long was I lulled asleep long did I think myself a Christian, when I knew nothing of the Lord Jesus Christ.
