- W4322730164 abstract "The evangelical movement, while not a model of order and consistency, was a miracle of energy and zeal. It contained contradictions; it was frequently oppressive; but it injected a vigour into British Christianity unknown since the Civil War. Isaac Watts went further in his assessment. When news reached him in 1736 of a revival in Northampton, Massachusetts under a then-unknown Jonathan Edwards, he wrote feverishly to a friend: ‘We have not heard anything like it since the Reformation, nor perhaps since the days of the apostles.’ Watts’ excitement was justified by the surge of revivals that followed the stirring in New England. He, and Edwards for that matter, inhabited a spiritual world that was measured, staid and increasingly introspective. They now witnessed an urgency that would propel Christianity into its most expansive phase in history. Edwards was no firebrand, and he laboured to moderate the emotional excesses of this ‘Great Awakening’, but there was a dynamism here that respected neither person nor protocol. It was personified in the mesmeric figure of George Whitefield, a young clergyman whose ability to engage thousands on the necessity of the ‘new birth’ was enough to convince Edwards that God really was at work. Strangest of all, he was apparently choosing the foolish things of this world to shame the wise: the light was coming from the Church of England." @default.
