An Active, Lively, Restless Faith

Jesus Christ has begun and He will carry on, He will finish the good work in our souls. — We have nothing to do but to lay hold on Him by faith, and to depend on Him for wisdom, righteousness, sanctification and redemption. Not but we must be workers together with Him; for a true faith in Jesus Christ will not suffer us to be idle. — No, it is an active, lively, restless principle; it fills the heart, so that it cannot be easy till it is doing something for JESUS CHRIST.

George Whitefield.  Quoted in George Whitefield Vol. 1 by Arnold Dallimore, pg. 224.
