Note 95 — A YEAR OF PREACHING.
Reading edition
When Whitefield was closing his ministry in London, in the year 1769, he said: "The second sermon I ever made, the second sermon I ever preached, was on these words, 'If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature.' I was then about twenty years and a half old. The next sermon I preached was upon 'Ye are justified;' and the next, 'Ye are glorified.'" (Whitefield's Eighteen Sermons, published by Gurney, 1771, p. 334.)
