There are some men in the pages of history, whose greatness no person of common sense thinks of disputing. They tower above the herd of mankind, like the Pyramids, the Parthenon, and the Colosseum, among buildings. Such men were Luther and Augustine, Gustavus Adolphus and George Washington, Columbus and Sir Isaac Newton. He who questions greatness must be content to be thought very ignorant, very prejudiced, or very eccentric. Public opinion has come to a conclusion about them - they were great men. But there are also great men whose reputation lies buried under a heap of contemporary ill-will and misrepresentation. The world does not appreciate them, because the world does not know their real worth. Their characters have come down to us through poisoned channels. Their portraits have been drawn by the ill-natured hand of enemies. Their faults have been exaggerated. Their excellences have been maliciously kept back and suppressed. Like the famous sculptures of Nineveh, they need the hand of some literary Layard to clear away the rubbish that has accumulated round their names, and show them to the world in their fair proportions. Such men were Vigilantius and Wickliffe. Such men were Oliver Cromwell and many of the Puritans. And such a man was George Whitefield.

Although he was turned out from the church's of prominence in England, he went on to preach to as .many as 30,00;0 ; at a time outdoors. Those who came to his open air gatherings were hungry for a work of God in their lives!
His psssion and desire was to see new life! He went out and reached thousands who would never have come to the church. many were regenerated!
Whitefield reminds me of Billy Sunday, Dwight Moody and most of all, he reminds me of Billy Graham in our day. His zeal to see blinded eyes opened by the Word of God was prominent in his life. it was his passion!
George Whitefield held forth the Gospel! in a day as dark as our own, His passion for souls changed the direction of many lost sheep who came to follow the Good Shepherd!!
