More quotes by George Whitefield

George Whitefield

George Whitefield
True conversion means turning not only from sin but also from depending on self-made righteousness.
George Whitefield

George Whitefield
For it pleased God, after he had made all things by the word of his power, to create man after his own image.
George Whitefield
Jesus was God and man in one person, that God and man might be happy together again.
George Whitefield
If we once get above our Bibles and cease making the written Word of God our sole rule both as to faith and practice, we shall soon lie open to all manner of delusion and be in great danger of making shipwreck of faith and a good conscience.
George Whitefield
