MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN BY BRINGING BACK THE CHRISTIAN DOCTRINE OF EARLY AMERICA: GEORGE WHITEFIELD

“Happy, thrice happy ye, who are already raised from spiritual death, and have an earnest of an infinitely better and more glorious resurrection in your hearts. You know a little, how delightful it must have been to Martha and Mary and Lazarus, to sit down with the blessed Jesus here below; but how infinitely more delightful will it be, to sit down, not only with Mary and Martha, but with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and all your other dear brethren and sisters, in the kingdom of heaven. Do you not long for that time, when Jesus shall say unto you, "Come up hither?" Well! Blessed be God, yet a little while, and that same Jesus, who cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth;" shall with the same voice, and with the same power, speak unto all that are in their graves, and they shall come forth. That all who hear me this day may be then enabled to lift up their heads and rejoice, that the day of their complete redemption is indeed fully come, may Jesus Christ grant, for his infinite mercy's sake. Amen, and Amen.

Christless souls, you do not know what grief your continuance in sin occasions to your godly relations! You do not know how you grieve the heart of Jesus. I beseech you give him no fresh cause to weep over you upon account of your unbelief: let him not again groan in his spirit and be troubled. Behold how he has loved you, even so as to lay down his life for you. What could he do more? I pray you, therefore, dead sinners, come forth; arise and sup with Jesus. This was an honor conferred on Lazarus, and the same honor awaits you. Not that you shall sit down with him personally in this life, as Lazarus did, but you shall sit down with him at the table of his ordinances, especially at the table of the Lord's supper, and ere long sit down with him in the kingdom of heaven!” By George WHITEFIELD.

IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL BEGIN TO LOOK INTO THE SIN OF THE FAMILY AND HOW WE MAY BE IGNORANTY BE SETTING OURSELVES, AS AMERICANS, UP TO BE TRAPPED IN THE SIN OF THE FAMILY, FOR WE KNOW THE PENALTY FOR BREAKING ONE OF OUR TRAFFIC LAWS IN AMERICA IS NOT BASED ON OUR GOOD INTENTIONS, BUT ON THE INFRACTION ITSELF AND THE PENALTY THEREOF WHICH MAY COME IN DEGREES. LIKEWISE THE PENALITIES FOR BREAKING GOD’S MORAL AND CIVIL ARE NOT BASED UPON OUR GOOD INTENTIONS BUT STRICTLY ACCORDING TO WHAT THE LAW ALLOWS, AND LIKEWISE GOD’S LAWS FOR THE FAMILY. WE AS AMERICAN CANNOT PLEAD IGNORANCE OF GOD’S LAWS OF THE FAMILY BUT ONLY MERCY: THUS, THE IMPORTANCE OF KNOWING GOD’S LAW FOR THE FAMILY BEFORE WE GET MARRIED. HOWEVER IN SETTING UP OUR FAMILIES THERE IS BOTH A CIVIL AND SPIRITUAL FUNCTION OF THE LAW WE MUST BE COGNIZANT OF, THAT IS, IF WE PLEASE, BOTH THE HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL FUNCTION OF THE LAW MUST BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. FOR THE SPIRITUAL FUNCTION OF THE LAW WE WILL NOT ONLY BE LOOKING AT THE SCRIPTURES BUT INTO PILGRIM’S PROGRESS TO WITNESS ONE OF THE BEST ALLEGORICAL PRESENTATIONS OF THE SPIRITUAL FUNCTION OF LAW AND AS A RESULT ONE OF THE BEST PORTRAYALS OF THE EXPERIENCE OF WHAT A TRUE CONVERSION OF CHRIST EVER WRITTEN AND PORTRAYED IS LIKE. YOU WANT TO MISS IT!

HOW MANY OF AMERICANS KNOW THAT WE ARE BORN INTO THIS WORLD IN CAPTIVITY TO OUR SPIRITUAL FATHER, SATAN? ADAM WAS BORN INTO THIS WORLD IN THE IMAGE OF GOD WITHOUT SIN, BUT WE AS AMERICANS ARE BORN INTO THIS WORLD IN THE IMAGE OF FALLEN ADAM WHOSE SPIRITUAL FATHER WAS SATAN WHO HAD OBTAINED A SIN NATURE IN LIKENESS OF SATAN. Gen. 5: [3] And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his(FALLEN ADAM) own likeness, after his(FALEN) image; and called his name Seth. GEORGE WHITEFIELD GIVES US AMERICANS A OUTLINE OF HIS SERMON: “ My brethren, if you were left to yourselves, you would be overcome by every temptation with which you are beset.

These words are part of the prayer which Christ taught his disciples; and I shall, therefore, make no doubt, but that you all believe them to be true, since they are spoken by one who cannot lie. I shall,

I. Show you who it is that tempts you.

II. Shall show, my brethren, why he tempts you.

III. Mention some of the ways and means he makes use of, to draw you over to his temptations.

IV. Let you see how earnest you ought to be to the Lord, that he may preserve you from being led into temptation.

V. I shall make some application by way of entreaty unto you, to come unto Christ, that he, my brethren, may deliver you from being tempted.”

IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL ANSWER THE QUESTION OF WHO DOES GOD PORTRAY AS THE SEXUAL PREDATOR, THE MAN OR WOMAN, AND HOW DID THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION EXPLAIN THE TRAGIC DEATH OF SAMSON. MOST ALL OF US AMERICANS THAT HAVE BEEN TRAPPED IN A SIN, WISH WE COULD HAVE AVOIDED THE HURTFUL MISERY OF THAT SIN. WHAT BETTER WAY TO HELP AVOID THAT SIN THAN TO COME TO KNOW THE PERSON OF JESUS, THE GREAT DELIVERER, THE GREAT PHYSICIAN, THE GREAT REFUGE, AND DID HE HIMSELF PROCLAIM TO BE GOD AND ARE THE ELECT HIS WIFE, HAVING AN INTIMATE SPIRITUAL LOVE RELATION WITH HIM. IF SO, ALL OF US NATURAL MAN AMERICANS CAN ALL HAVE HOPE FOR NONE OF US AMERICANS KNOW WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE OF THE ELECT, FOR EVEN FORMER MR. MORALITY HIMSELF, ONE OF THE WORST PERSECUTORS OF THE EARLY CHURCH HAD NO IDEA THAT HE WAS ONE OF THE ELECT UNTIL AFTER HE WAS ELECTED. THUS, HAVING THIS GREAT HOPE OF ONEDAY BEING MARRIED TO CHRIST AND EXPERIENCING HIS LOVE IN BEING OUR REFUGE AND FORTRESS IN TIMES OF TROUBLE, THIS HOPE WILL BE THE GREAT HOPE THAT NOT ONLY WILL LEAD TO OUR SALVATION. BUT ALSO OUR DELIVERANCE OF FROM BEING TRAPPED IN THE WORST OF SINS BUT ALSO WILL HELP US TO AVOID BEING TRAPPED IN THE LITTLE AS WELL AS GREAT SINS. WE ALSO AS JOHN Q. PUBLIC OF AMERICA BEING THE SIMPLE PEOPLE OF AMERICA ASK OURSELVES THE QUESTION OF WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD GOD NOT ONLY REVEAL THE VICTORIES OF HIS PEOPLE, BUT ALSO THE SINS OF HIS PEOPLE, BUT FOR THE FACT THAT WE MIGHT LEARN FROM THEIR SINS. AGAIN, WHAT ABOUT THE SINS OF FORNICATION, AND ADULTERY, DOES GOD PRESENT THE WOMAN OR THE MAN AS THE SEXUAL PREDATOR. HOW DOES THE ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION EXPLAIN THE TRAGIC, YET VICTORIOUS DEATH OF SAMSON.

The celebration of the birth of Christ hath been esteemed a duty by most who profess Christianity. When we consider the condescension and love of the Lord Jesus Christ, in submitting to be born of a virgin, a poor sinful creature; and especially as he knew how he was to be treated in this world; that he was to be despised, scoffed at, and at last to die a painful, shameful, and ignominious death; that he should be treated as though he was the off-scouring of all mankind; used, not like the son of man, and, therefore, not at all like the Son of God; the consideration of these things should make us to admire the love of the Lord Jesus Christ, who was so willing to offer himself as a ransom for the sins of the people…he came, not in glory or in splendor, not like him who brought all salvation with him: no, he was born in a stable, and laid in a manger; oxen were his companions. O amazing condescension of the Lord Jesus Christ, to stoop to such low and poor things for our sake. What love is this, what great and wonderful love was here, that the Son of God should come into our world in so mean a condition, to deliver us from the sin and misery.

WHEN ARE THE TIMES IN OUR LIFE AS BELIEVERS THAT WE EXPERIENCE THE GREATEST LOVE OF JESUS. AS WE HAVE MENTIONED MANY TIMES BEFORE, WE AS TRUE BELIEVERS, WHEN WE WERE MADE A NEW CREATION, WE BECAME EXACTLY THAT, A NEW CREATION, WE BECAME, A NEW CREATURE WITH NEW CHARACTERISTICS. WE BECAME NO LONGER A NATURAL MAN, BUT A SPIRITUAL MAN. WE ARE EITHER 100% A NATURAL MAN OR WE ARE 100% A SPIRITUAL MAN. IN TRUE CHRISTIANITY THERE IS NOTHING IN BETWEEN THE NATURAL MAN AND THE SPIRITUAL MAN, THAT IS NO SUCH THING AS A HYBRID, AS WELL AS THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A HYBRID DOG OR CAT: A DOG IS A DOG AND A CAT IS A CAT. A NATURAL MAN IS A NATURAL MAN AND A SPIRITUAL MAN IS A SPIRITUAL MAN. GEORGE WHITEFIELD SPEAKS OF THE FACT THAT EITHER JESUS CHOOSES US OR WE CHOOSE JESUS, THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS HYBRID CHOOSING. GEORGE WHITEFIELD SAYS THAT EITHER GOD IS THE FIRST MOVER OR WE AS NATURAL MEN ARE THE FIRST MOVER. DID ADAM CALL OUT TO GOD AFTER THE FALL OR DID ADAM HIDE HIMSELF AFTER THE FALL WHEN GOD CALLED OUT TO HIM. A NEW SPIRITUAL CREATURE IS A BRAND NEW CREATURE THAT HAS BEEN TRANSLATED FROM 100% SPIRITUAL DARKNESS TO 100% SPIRITUAL LIGHT. THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD ONLY BRIGHTENS THE SPIRITUAL LIGHT FOR THE NEW CREATION IS REMINDED OF THE SPIRITUAL DARKNESS FROM WHICH HE WAS TRANSLATED FROM. BUT JESUS IS THAT LIGHT AND SPIRITUAL DARKNESS MAKES US FLEE TO JESUS AS OUR REFUGE WHERE WE EXPERIENCE BOTH HIS LOVE AND OUR FATHER’S LOVE. JUST IMAGINE HOW GREY HEADED DANIEL WHO GEORGE WHITEFIELD POINTS OUT WAS 80 YEARS OLD WHEN HE WAS THROWN INTO THE LION’S DEN AND BECAUSE THE PRE INCARNATE CHRIST(JESUS) WAS THERE WITH HIM THE LIONS NEVER A LAID A PAW ON HIM. CAN WE IMAGINE HOW HOW OUR BELOVED DAMIEL EXPERIENCED THE LOVE OF HIS BELOVED JESUS IN THE FURNACE OF AFFLICTION. BUT EVEN WHEN WE ARE BEING DISCIPLINED BY OUR LORD WE EXPERIENCE THE OF LOVE GOD FOR WE INSTINCTIVELY KNOW HE IS DISCIPLINING US AS A PROTECTION TO US. THUS BOTH THE DARKNESS OF THIS WORLD AND THE DARKNESS OF OUR OWN HEART MAKES US FLEE TO OUR LORD JESUS AS OUR REFUGE THAT WE MIGHT BE EMBRACED IN HIS LOVING ARMS AS A WEANED CHILD RUNS TO HIS MOTHER FOR REFUGE: OUR SOUL IS AS A WEANED CHILD: SURELY OUR BEHAVES AND QUIETS ITSELF AS A WEANED CHILD TO ITS MOTHER. PSALM 131: [1] LORD, my heart is not haughty, nor mine eyes lofty: neither do I exercise myself in great matters, or in things too high for me.

[2] Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

[3] Let Israel hope in the LORD from henceforth and for ever. Heb. 12: [4] Ye have not yet resisted unto blood, striving against sin.

[5] And ye have forgotten the exhortation which speaketh unto you as unto children, My son, despise not thou the chastening of the Lord, nor faint when thou art rebuked of him:

[6] For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth.

[7] If ye endure chastening, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?

[8] But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.

[9] Furthermore we have had fathers of our flesh which corrected us, and we gave them reverence: shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the Father of spirits, and live?

[10] For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.

[11] Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.

[12] Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;

[13] And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.

IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL BEGIN THE PROCESS OF LEARNING HOW AT, ANY AGE, TO BE ABLE TO STEAR CLEAR OF BEING TRAPPED IN A SIN WHICH CAN LITERALLY DESTROY OUR LIFE. WE WILL LOOK AT THE SIN OF DAVID AND THE TRAGIC SHAME AND HUMILIATION OF HIS SIN. WE WILL ALSO BEGIN TO LOOK OF THE TRAGIC ENDING OF SAMSON’S LIFE AS A RESULT OF BEING TRAPPED IN A SIN AND HOW WE AS NATURAL MAN AMERICANS CAN LEARN FROM THE SINS OF THESE TWO BIBLICAL CHARACTERS IN ORDER TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING TO US. AN ALCOHOLIC CAN SPOT ANOTHER ALCOHOLIC A MILE AWAY FOR HE HAS EXPERIENCED ALCOHOLISM. THUS WE WILL BEGIN THE PROCESS OF SPOTTING AND REPENTING OVER THE EVIL PROCLIVITIES OF OUR HEART, THUS REPENTING BEFORE THE EVIL PROCLIVITY ESCAPES. THIS CAN HELP US BECOME AWARE OF THE EVIL IN OUR OWN HEART IN ORDER THAT WE MIGHT SEE AND RECOGNIZE THAT EVIL IN ANOTHER, BECAUSE AS WE CAN IDENTIFY THE EVIL IN OUR OWN HEART, LIKE THE ALCOHOLIC EASILY SPOTS ANOTHER ALCOHOLIC, AS WE CAN SPOT ANOTHER EVIL PROCLIVITY IN OUR HEART WE CAN SPOT THAT SAME EVIL PROCLIVITY IN OUR NEIGHBORS HEART . FOR EXAMPLE, THE MORE WE CAN SPOT THE EVIL PROCLIVITY PRIDE IN OUR HEART THE MORE WE CAN SEE IT IN THE HEARTS OF OTHERS PROTECTING US BY MAKING US AWARE OF THAT SAME EVIL PROCLIVITY IN OTHERS.

GEORGE WHITFIELD THE GREATEST EVANGELIST IN AMERICAN HISTORY, BY FAR, IN THIS MESSGE, MAKES IT PERFECTLY CLEAR TO ALL OF JOHN Q. PUBLIC OF AMERICA THAT IT IS OUR DUTY TO SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES, FOR THE SALVATION OF OUR SOULS DEPENDS UPON IT, AND YET PARADOXICALLY IT IS ONLY THE SPIRITUAL WHO CAN TRULLY READ THE BIBLE, FOR THE BIBLE IS SPIRITUAL, AND ONLY THE SPIRITUAL CAN READ THE SPIRITUAL. YES, OUR FASTFOOD FREEWILL THEOLOGINS CAN READ THE BIBLE AND GET A NATURAL MAN INTERPRETATION, BUT THE SPIRITUAL INTERPRETATION IS AS FOREIGN TO THEM AS SOMEONE SPEAKING TO THEM IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE UNKNOWN BY THEM. SO WHY SHOULD WE AS NATURAL MEN AMERICANS SEARCH THE SCRIPTURES IF THE TRUE INTERPRETATION IS INDISCERNIBLE TO US. WHY THEN? BUT BECAUSE THERE ARE SELF EVIDENT TRUTHS THAT WE AS NATURAL MEN AMERICANS CAN LAY AHOLD OF SELF EVIDENT TRUTHS THAT ARE INDISPUTABLE, LIKE ASKING OURSELVES WHETHER OR NOT WE ARE A LIAR. WE ARE, ARE WE NOT, AND IT IS ALSO INDISPUTABLE THAT LYING CAN BE ERADICATED FROM OUR HEART, AND THUS EXTRAPOLATING THE SAME IS TRUE FOR ENVY, JEALOUSY, COVETOUSNESS, THEFT, FORNICATION, ADULTERY, MURDER, ETC., AND YET IT IS A SELF EVIDENT TRUTH THAT HEAVEN US HOLY, SHOWING US WE ARE NOT FIT FOR HEAVEN WITH THE FOUNTAIN FROM WHICH EVIL FLOWS IN THIS WORLD COMING RIGHT OUT OF OUR OWN AMERICAN HEART, BUT THE 2ND ADAM COMES ALONG AND SAYS THAT HE IS HOLY FOR HE WAS SENT BY HIS FATHER TO DO WHAT THE 1ST ADAM DID NOT DO, AND WHAT WAS THAT BUT HE DID NOT KEEP HIS FATHERS COMMANDMENTS PERFECTLY AND THUS HIS FATHER GAVE HIM OVER TO SATAN ALONG WITH A NATURE IN LIKENESS TO SATAN WHO WAS THE FATHER OF LIES AND A MURDERER FROM THE BEGINNING. SO THE ONLY WAY AS NATURAL MAN AMERICANS HAVING THE FOUNTAIN FROM WHICH ALL EVIL FLOWS IN THIS WORLD IN OUR HEART ARE GOING TO HEAVEN IS BY THE OBEDIENCE OF ANOTHER MAN AS A GIFT TO US, AND WHO MIGHT THAT BE BUT THE 2ND ADAM WHO TOOK ON OUR SIN NATURE FORCING HIS FATHER TO SEND HIM TO HELL FOR US(HIS PASSIVE OBEDIENCE) AND NEVER SINNING HEAR ON EARTH THAT IS HE KEPT HIS FATHERS COMMANDS PERFECTLY FOR US( HIS ACTIVE OBEDIENCE) WHICH THE TWI OF THEM TOGETHER ARE CALLED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD WHICH BECOMES OUR TICKET INTO HEAVEN FOR WHEN WE HAVE FAITH IN THAT RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD OUR FATHER IN HEAVEN SEES HIS SON’S PERFECT OBEDIENCE AS OUR OWN PERFECT OBEDIENCE BUT ALL WE CAN SEE IS THE FOUNTAIN FROM WHICH ALL EVIL FLOWS RIGHT IN OUR HEART AND THUS WE HUNGER AND THIRST AFTER THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD FOR OUR NEW CREATION DESIRES TO BE HOLY AND CAN’T BE FOR WE KNOW WE ARE POOR AND NEEDY AND THUS SPIRITUALLY RICH; WE KNOW WE ARE NAKED AND THUS SPIRITUALLY CLOTHED IN THE ROBE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS; WE KNOW WE ARE BLIND AND THUS HAVE SPIRITUAL EYES; WE KNOW AS BELIEVERS WE MUST COME AS BABES FOR JESUS HIDES HIS WISDOM FROM THOSE WHO ARE WISE IN THEIR OWN EYES. MT. 11:[24] But I (JESUS) say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.

[25] At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast HID these things from the WISE and prudent, and hast revealed them unto BABES.

[26] Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.

[27] All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.

[28] Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

[29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

[30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. Rev. 3: [16] So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

[17] Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:

IN THIS MESSAGE WE CONTINUE OUR DISCUSSION OF BEING TRAPPED IN A SIN, AND THUS MISERY, AND WE ASK AGAIN A COMMON SENSE QUESTION. WHY CAN’T THOSE OF US WHO ARE TRAPPED IN A SIN, DON’T JUST PACK UP OUR BAGS AND LEAVE THAT SIN? WOULD IT NOT BE BECAUSE WE WORSHIP THAT SIN SO MUCH, AND THUS HAVING NOT HIT BOTTOM YET, WE HAVE NO DESIRE TO PACK UP OUR BAGS AND LEAVE THAT SIN. BUT WHAT IF WE HAVE HIT BOTTOM AND WE LACK THE POWER TO LEAVE THAT SIN, THEN WHAT? MAYBE WE WERE BORN INTO THIS WORLD WITH A WEAK CONSTITUTION TO BEGIN WITH AND NOW JUST CANNOT QUIT COLD TURKEY, WHAT SHOULD WE DO? WELL, WE CAN BEGIN BY BEGINNING TO BE CONCERNED ABOUT THE CONDITION OF OUR SOUL, FOR IF WE ARE NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THE IMMORTALITY OF OWN SOUL WE DEFINITELY WILL NOT BE CONCERNED ABOUT THE IMMORTALITY OF OUR CHILDREN’S SOUL. BUT MAYBE WE THINK THAT OUR SIN IS SO GREAT THAT EVEN THE THOUGHT OF OUR SOUL AND HEAVEN LEAVES US EVEN MORE HOPELESS. IF SO, LET US REMEMBER THAT GOD HAS A BIG TENT FOR HE SEES WITH X-RAY VISION RIGHT THROUGH OUR MORALITY OR IMMORALITY AND SEES THAT WE ALL HAVE THE SAME EVIL HEART: THE MORALISTS AMONG US MAY HAVE THE ABILITY TO BETTER COVER OVER THE EVIL PROCLIVITIES OF OUR HEART WITH THE FIG LEAVES OF MORALITY BUT GOD IS NOT JUDGING US ON OUR MORALITY BUT IS CONDEMNING ALL OF US EQUALLY ON THE EVIL PROCLIVITIES OF OUR HEART. AND HOW IS IT THAT WE BEGIN TO SEE THESE EVIL PROCLIVITIES OF OUR HEART BUT THROUGH THE PROPER FUNCTION OF THE LAW IN OUR LIVES BEFORE AND AFTER WE BECOME A NEW CREATION. IN THIS MESSAGE WE WILL BEGIN TO MAKE A DENT IN THE PROPER FUNCTION OF THE LAW, IN GOD MAKING US A NEW CREATION, WHERE ALL THE POWER EXISTS AND BOTH THE MORALISTS AND DEGENERATE SINNERS AMONG US AMERICANS ARE WELCOME TO COME. JESUS COMMANDS US: [28] Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

[29] Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

[30] For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Matt. 11:28-30

IT IS CRITICAL THAT THIS MESSAGE OF GEORGE WHITEFIELD BE HEARD ALL ACROSS AMERICA FOR HE MAKES IT CLEAR IN THIS MESSAGE THAT IF WE HAVE YET TO CREATED A NEW CREATION, OUR RELIGION BECOMES NOTHING MORE THAN AN EXERCISE IN ILLEGITIMATE MORALISM. THE NEW CREATION IS NOT JUST A TWEAKED NATURAL MAN, IT IS A NEW CREATION OF GOD WITH A DIFFERENT WILL, DIFFERENT AFFECTIONS, ETC., IT IS AS DIFFERENT AS A CAT IS FROM A DOG. THE CAT’S CHARACTERISTICS ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT FROM A DOG. GOD DOES NOT TAKE A CAT AND MAKE IT BARK. IN GOD’S WORLD A DOG IS DOG AND A CAT IS A CAT, THEY ARE BOTH CREATED BY GOD. IN GOD’S WORLD A NATURAL MAN IS A NATURAL MAN CREATED BY GOD AND THE NEW CREATION IS A NEW CREATION CREATED BY GOD: THE NEW CREATION IS AS DIFFERENT FROM OUR NATURAL MAN AS A CAT IS FROM A DOG. GEORGE WHITEFIELD IN THIS MESSAGE ALSO DELINEATES THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NEW CREATION AS OPPOSED TO THE CHARACTERISTICS OF THE NATURAL MAN.
