Synopsis

Excerpt from Lady Huntington and Her Friends: Or, the Revival of the Work of God, in the Days of Wesley, Whitefield, Romaine, Venn, and Others in the Last Century

We have singled out from this great company a noble Christian Woman, whose name is blended with the history of this period; whose soul glowed with a fervent faith and whose princely mansions were open with a tireless hospitality to every one who loved her Lord. As we follow her path, Wesley goes out from us to stamp his intrepid spirit upon the organism of one of the largest bodies of Protestant Christians, and at some future day we hope to follow him in his career.

Présentation de l'éditeur

England and her colonies. Immorality and scepticism had blighted the moral consciousness of the nation, and cankeredthe great heart of the church. In place of the vital, sturdy faith of a former day, there seemed only a perverted Christianity, weak, insincere, effeminate, with a name to live. But in this evil and desolate hour, there were in secret places the wrestling Jacobs, whose conflicts issued in newness of life; and suddenly, strangely as it seemed to men, the electric appeals of Whitefield, and the powerful preaching of the Wesleys, startled the thronging multitudes of London with the awful verities of the world to come.
