Book Description

Excerpt from Memoirs of Rev. George Whitefield The collection, however, will be chiefly from sermons written and published by himself. It is believed that they will verify the preceding hints, and set forth their author in a far more advantageous light, than that in which those of his works most extensively known to the public have placed him. Their merit is not in their theological depth and subtlety, but in that higher demon stration of the Spirit, the unction, the life, the fervency, which marked the man in word and deed. It is believed, that if read with the true end of ser monizing in View, they will bear a favorable comparison with any sermons of this age, especially if we consider the demands of his hearers. A polemical tract is also inserted, in order to show his temper and power in this field. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
