More quotes by George Whitefield
Ministers never write or preach so well as when under the cross.
George Whitefield
God is well pleased when all our actions proceed from love, love to Himself, and love to immortal souls.
George Whitefield
We must all have the spirit of martyrdom, though we may not all die martyrs.
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
You might as reasonably expect to find a living man without breath, as a true Christian without the spirit of prayer and supplication.
George Whitefield
My prayer today is that God would make me an extraordinary Christian.
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.' But pray what is there in our sincerity to recommend us to God? ... therefore, if you depend on your sincerity for your salvation, your sincerity will damn you.
George Whitefield
Lord Jesus, I am weary in Thy work, but not of it. If I have not yet finished my course, let me go and speak for Thee once more in the field, seal Thy truth, and come home to die.
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
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
And now let me address all of you, high and low, rich and poor, one with another, to accept of mercy and grace while it is offered to you Now is the accepted time, now is the day of salvation and will you not accept it, now it is offered unto you?
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
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
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
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.'
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
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
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
To preach more than half an hour, a man should be an angel himself or have angels for hearers.
George Whitefield
Let us, therefore, not be weary of well-doing for we shall reap an eternal harvest of comfort, if we faint not.
