Is Your Christian Faith Real?

Whitefield's preaching was direct and passionate and his communication skills were truly legendary. A Calvinist in his theology—believing in the doctrines of grace—he faced opposition from some within the established church, and at times faced mob violence when he preached.
The title for this booklet reflects the editor's desire to represent the heart of Whitefield's burden—that people evidence the new birth. He has edited and brought together two of Whitefield's sermons: "The Almost Christian" and "Marks of a True Conversion." In these two sermons one can see that Whitefield clearly realized, as we certainly must today, that all individuals must be "born from above" to experience God's forgiveness and eternal life. |
