More quotes by 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
Ministers never write or preach so well as when under the cross.
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
Whole days and weeks have I spent prostrate on the ground in silent or vocal prayer.
George Whitefield
Come poor, lost, undone sinner, come just as you are to Christ.
George Whitefield
Although believers by nature are far from God, and children of wrath, even as others, yet it is amazing to think how nigh they are brought to him again by the blood of Jesus Christ.
George Whitefield
It is very remarkable, that in the book of life, we find some almost of all kinds of occupations, who notwithstanding served God in their respective generations, and shone as so many lights in the world.
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
I am never better than when I am on the full stretch for God.
George Whitefield
The true believer can no more live without prayer, than without food day by day.
George Whitefield
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.
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
Oh let us continually keep faith in exercise, till it be entirely swallowed up in the boundless ocean of beatific vision.
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
Christ is worth all, or he is worth nothing.
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.
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
It is God alone who can subdue and govern the unruly wills of sinful men.
George Whitefield
To preach more than half an hour, a man should be an angel himself or have angels for hearers.
