The Evangelistic Zeal of George Whitefield by Steven J Lawson Pdf

England was in the midst of spiritual decline in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. Ministers who merely claimed to know Christ preached cold, lifeless sermons filled with moralistic platitudes. Strife and persecution choked evangelicals in the Anglican church, while segments of the Presbyterian and Baptist movements grew aimless and feeble. Into this dark time, George Whitefield burst forth "like lightning from a cloudless sky." A tireless evangelist who paired deep theology with a burning zeal to see the lost saved, Whitefield crossed oceans and traveled thousands of miles to proclaim the gospel of Christ. In so doing, he sparked a revival unlike any the church had ever known. In The Evangelistic Zeal of George Whitefield, Dr. Steven Lawson presents a man whose devotion to God led him to risk all that he had to proclaim Christ. As it bears Whitefield's burning heart for the work of the Lord, this book calls for re-energized preaching and evangelism in the church today. This book is part of the Long Line of Godly Men Profile series, edited by Dr. Steven Lawson.

George Whitefield by Arnold A. Dallimore Pdf

God's accomplishments through George Whitefield are to this day virtually unparalleled. In an era when many ministers were timid and apologetic in their preaching, he preached the gospel with zeal and undaunted courage. In the wake of his fearless preaching, revival swept across the British Isles, and the Great Awakening transformed the American colonies. The previous two-volume work George Whitefield: The Life and Times of the Great Evangelist of the Eighteenth-Century Revival is now condensed into this single volume, filled with primary-source quotations from the eighteenth century, not only from Whitefield but also from prominent figures such as John and Charles Wesley, Benjamin Franklin, and William Cowper.

George Whitefield by J.C. Ryle Pdf

Who were the men that revived religion in England a hundred years ago? What were their names, that we may do them honor? Where were they born? How were they educated? What are the leading facts in their lives? What was their special department of labor? To these questions I wish to supply some answers in the present and future chapters. I pity the man who takes no interest in such inquiries. The instruments that God employs to do His work in the world deserve a close inspection. The man who did not care to look at the rams horns that blew down Jericho, the hammer and nail that slew Sisera, the lamps and trumpets of Gideon, the sling and stone of David, might fairly be set down as a cold and heartless person. Of all the spiritual heroes of a hundred years ago, none saw so soon as George Whitefield what the times demanded, and none were so forward in the great work of spiritual aggression. I would think I committed an act of injustice if I placed any name before his.

Sermons of George Whitefield by George Whitefield Pdf

A total of 57 lectures of George Whitefield, one of the most celebrated preachers of England and the American colonies in the 18th century, are presented here. Together, these lectures offer a profound insight into an innovative and often controversial preacher. A man of immense gifts for expression, George Whitefield would commonly drive an audience to tears with his sincere expressions of faith. Pushing the boundaries of his era, Whitefield rebelled against church authority and claimed that God himself permitted that he preach itinerant indoors and in the open air. Whitefield rose from humble beginnings to become one of the most pivotal Christians of his era. Too poor to afford tutelage, the young Whitefield managed to avoid tuition by acting as a servant to other students; assisting them to wash; cleaning their quarters; and carrying their books and satchels. Such menial work appeared to fire George Whitefield's spirit; he converted to Christianity and fervently attended to his studies thereafter.
