The Works of George Whitefield Vol. 1 oleh George Whitefield

This book was originally titled: The Works of the Reverend George Whitefield, M. A. Late of Pembroke-College, Oxford, and Chaplain to the RT. Hon. The Countess of Huntingdon. Containing all his sermons and tracts which have been already published: with a select collection of letters, written to his most intimate friends, and persons of distinction, in England, Scotland, Ireland, and America, from the year 1734, to 1770, including the whole period of his ministry. Also some other pieces on important subjects, never before printed; prepared by himself for the press to which is prefixed, an account of his life, compiled from his original papers and letters Vol. I

Mr. Whitefield’s Works (printed under the Direction of his Executors) it is presumed, will be highly acceptable to all his Friends, as the just and proper Monument of his Memory and Merit; and both pleasing and useful to the Public in general, but especially to those who desire to cherish and promote the Spirit of primitive Christianity.

His Friends, and even his Enemies (should there be any such) will here openly behold his unwearied Diligence, undaunted Firmness, noble Disinterestedness, and exceeding Usefulness in the Work of the Ministry; also, his remarkable Fidelity in Friendship, exemplary Piety, and fervent Zeal for the Prosperity of pure and undefiled Religion.

The Letters and Works can stand in no need of any Recommendation: Connected with the account of his Life, (now drawn from original Papers) they exhibit a plain and undisguised View of the worthy Author, in all Parts of his public Service, as well as in his private Retirements, and inward Trials; faithfully shewing the Whole of that <span style=
