George Whitefield


Born
in Gloucester, Gloucestershire, The United Kingdom
December 16, 1714

Died
September 30, 1770

Genre


George Whitefield, also known as George Whitfield, was an English Anglican priest who helped spread the Great Awakening in Britain and, especially, in the British North American colonies. He was one of the founders of Methodism and of the evangelical movement generally. He became perhaps the best-known preacher in Britain and America in the 18th century, and because he travelled through all of the American colonies and drew great crowds and media coverage, he was one of the most widely recognized public figures in colonial America.

“Lord, help me to begin to begin.”
George Whitefield

“If you are going to walk with Jesus Christ, you are going to be opposed.... In our days, to be a true Christian is really to become a scandal.”
George Whitefield, The Works of the Reverend George Whitefield, M.a...: Containing All His Sermons and Tracts Which Have Been Already Published: With a Select Collection ... Subjects, Never Before Printed; Vol. V

“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
