Lectures on Revivals of Religion: A Call to Holiness, Prayer, and the Work of Revival [Updated and Annotated] - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Revival Lectures by Charles G. Finney is a powerful and convicting call for true Christian revival. Finney, a leading figure of the Second Great Awakening, shares his firsthand experiences and biblical insights into the nature, necessity, and means of revival.

Far from being a passive event, Finney argues that revival is the result of God's power working through the fervent prayers and obedience of His people. He speaks directly to believers, urging them to break up the fallow ground of their hearts, seek the Lord with urgency, and expect great things through faith. With clarity and conviction, Finney explains the conditions that lead to revival, the dangers that hinder it, and the practical steps that Christians must take to see the church renewed and sinners converted.

Originally delivered as a series of lectures to his congregation, this book remains one of the most influential works on revival ever written. It challenges both pastors and laypeople to examine their lives, pray with passion, and labor earnestly for the salvation of souls.

Wilt thou not revive us again: that thy people may rejoice in thee? – Psalm 85:6
