Few know the history of Finney and his impact on the Second Great Awakening. It is the story of how God can use anyone, even a heretic (who denied original sin), to advance His Kingdom
We need to know of the great cloud of witnesses and how God used ordinary people to share the gospel and change the world. Jesus started with just 12 but the Holy Spirit used those 12 to turn the world upside down. Seek Jesus and He will change you and those around you if surrender your life to Him fully.
Finney was a charlatan. He denied the vicarious atonement of Christ. Preached legalism. After 20 years of pushing the damned to take the name of the Lord in vain by making hasty false professions, he went back over his "burned over area" and admitted that most of the conversions were false
First Great Awakening, Edwards, Whitfield,et al. Monergism. Wesley slandering,competing jealously. Second great awakening, synergists, like the counter reformation
Charles Finney’s passion for revival shows how one surrendered life can awaken an entire nation.
