More quotes by George Whitefield
The righteousness of Jesus Christ is one of those great mysteries, which the angels desire to look into, and seems to be one of the first lessons that God taught men after the fall.
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
I would rather wear out than rust out.
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
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
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
Let us, therefore, not be weary of well-doing for we shall reap an eternal harvest of comfort, if we faint not.
George Whitefield
Had I a hundred hands, I could employ them all. The harvest is very great. I am ashamed I can do no more for him who has done so much for me.
George Whitefield
The fall of man is written in too legible characters not to be understood: Those that deny it, by their denying, prove it.
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
Indeed, I have been listed under Jesus' banner only for a few years, but I have enjoyed more solid pleasure in one moment's communion with my God than I should or could have enjoyed in the ways of sin, though I had continued to have gone on in them for thousands of years.
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
Oh let us continually keep faith in exercise, till it be entirely swallowed up in the boundless ocean of beatific vision.
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
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
There are many likewise, who go on in a round of duties, a model of performances, that think they shall go to heaven but if you examine them, though they have a Christ in their heads, they have no Christ in their hearts.
George Whitefield
I got more true knowledge from reading the Book of God in one month, than I could ever have acquired from all the writings of men.
George Whitefield
Whole days and weeks have I spent prostrate on the ground in silent or vocal prayer.
George Whitefield
I am tired in the Lord's work, but not tired of it.
George Whitefield
Christ is worth all, or he is worth nothing.
