More quotes by George Whitefield
We must all have the spirit of martyrdom, though we may not all die martyrs.
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
Jesus was God and man in one person, that God and man might be happy together again.
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
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
Ministers never write or preach so well as when under the cross.
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
To preach more than half an hour, a man should be an angel himself or have angels for hearers.
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
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
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
Pray that I may be very little in my own eyes, and not rob my dear Master of any part of his glory.
George Whitefield
It is God alone who can subdue and govern the unruly wills of sinful men.
George Whitefield
Among the many reasons assignable for the sad decay of true Christianity, perhaps the neglecting to assemble ourselves together, in religious societies, may not be one of the least.
George Whitefield
I would rather wear out than rust out.
George Whitefield
The true believer can no more live without prayer, than without food day by day.
George Whitefield
Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners, even persecutors, the worst of sinners: his righteousness is sufficient for them his Spirit is able to purify and change their hearts.
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
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
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.
