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.

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
God forbid that I should travel with anybody a quarter of an hour without speaking of Christ to them.
George Whitefield
Let us, therefore, not be weary of well-doing for we shall reap an eternal harvest of comfort, if we faint not.
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
Study to know Him more and more, for the more you know, the more you will love Him.
George Whitefield
God, give me a deep humility, a well-guided zeal, a burning love and a single eye, and then let men or devils do their worst!
George Whitefield
You may have orthodox heads, and yet you may have the devil in your hearts.
George Whitefield
Let my name die everywhere, let even my friends forget me, if by that means the cause of the blessed Jesus may be promoted
George Whitefield
You blame me for weeping, but how can I help it when you will not weep for yourselves, though your immortal souls are on the verge of destruction.
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
It is an undoubted truth that every doctrine that comes from God, leads to God and that which doth not tend to promote holiness is not of God.
George Whitefield
How sweet is rest after fatigue! How sweet will heaven be when our journey is ended.
George Whitefield
I am tired in the Lord's work, but not tired of it.
George Whitefield
If you know Christ and him crucified, you know enough to make you happy, supposing you know nothing else. And without this, all your other knowledge cannot keep you from being everlastingly miserable.
George Whitefield
If we are not inwardly wrought upon, and changed by the powerful operations of the Holy Spirit, and our moral actions proceed from a principle of a new nature, however we may call ourselves Christians, we shall be found naked at the great day.
George Whitefield
The Lord Jesus sits in heaven, ruling over all, and causing all things to work for his children's good.
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
What! Get to heaven on your own strength? Why, you might as well try to climb to the moon on a rope of sand!
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
Christ is worth all, or he is worth nothing.
