Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
What is true Christianity? There is perhaps no better person in
recent history to answer this question than Charles Finney. Finney
(1792-1875) was the most powerful Christian preacher of the 1800s
who sought to clearly articulate what the Scriptures say about
living the true Christian life that pleases God. He fearlessly
challenged his hearers to bring every aspect of their lives into
obedience to God. This book contains sixteen messages of Finney
that describe the essential practice of Christianity. Each message
will challenge your faith in a deep way and call you to the life
that God intends.
When editors have been changing Finney's words in their
republications of his works over the last one hundred and thirty
years, it is essential in understanding the man and his success
that republications without changes be given once again to the
public. This new edition does that. While the text is from the
final 1868 revised edition, numerous footnotes are added that show
the changes Finney made from the original 1834 and 1835 editions of
these lectures. Many of the changes made in more recent
republications are also noticed. From Finney's Preface: In revising
these lectures] for a new edition, I have done little more than
correct the phraseology in a few instances, add a few footnotes,
and replace the last two Lectures by newly-written ones on the same
texts and prepared especially for this edition. . . These Lectures
have been translated in the Welsh and French languages, and have
been extensively circulated wherever the English or either of those
languages is understood. One house in London published 80,000
copies in English. They are still in type and in market in Europe,
and I have the great satisfaction of knowing that they have been
made a great blessing to thousands of souls. Consequently, I have
not thought it wise to recast them for the sake of giving them a
more attractive form. God has owned and blessed the reading of them
as they have been, and with the exceptions above noticed, I have
given them to the present and coming generations. If the reader
will peruse and remember the foregoing preface, he will understand
what I said of the church and some of the ministers, and why I said
it. I beseech my brethren not to take amiss what I have said, but
rather to be assured that every sentence has been spoken in love,
and often with a sorrowful heart. May God continue to add His
blessing to the reading of these Lectures. CHARLES G. FINNEY
(1792-1875) was America's foremost evangelist. Over half a million
people were soundly converted under his personal ministry in a day
when there was no TV or microphones. He was also an excellent
theologian, philosopher, educator, pastor and reformer while
professor of theology and president of Oberlin College. Harvard's
Perry Miller said, "Finney led America out of the eighteenth
century." He is remembered, according to Harvard's W. G.
McLoughlin, for his "textbook on how to promote revivals of
religion. This book is the perennial classic to which all
succeeding generations of revivalists have turned for authority and
inspiration." He was also a father to the evangelical and holiness
movements.
