The Welsh Revival of 1904-05 by J. Edwin Orr: A Countrywide Asbury-like REVIVAL! The 4 Points: #1 Confess any known sin, and put any wrong done to man right again. #2 Put away any doubtful habit. #3 Obey the Spirit promptly. #4 Confess your faith publicly.

Transcribed by Jeff Fenske

“At the end of the prayer meeting, when they were getting up to go home, he said, ‘our young brother, Evan Roberts feels he has a word for you, if you care to wait.’ Many went on home, but 17 people waited. And Evan Roberts began like delivering a telegram.

‘I have a message for you from the Lord.

You must confess any known sin, and put any wrong done to man right again.

Second, you must put away any doubtful habit.

Third, you must obey the Spirit promptly.

Finally, you must confess your faith publicly.’

Those became the four points of the Welsh Revival.”

All 17 responded and the revival was on.

A newspaper reporter wrote of a meeting a few days later:

“When the meeting closed at 4:25 in the morning, they didn’t want to go home.”

“Didn’t you hear Robert Coleman say ‘that’s what it was like at Asbury College?’ But could you imagine a whole country like that? It was phenomenal. The reports were in every newspaper in the western world.

Not only were 100,000 people converted, but the social impact was astounding.”

Five years later:

“The number who remained in fellowship was 82.5%, which was astounding. But as I say, the social impact was even more amazing. … In some places the police were unemployed.”

The work and ministry of sermonindex can be encapsulated in this one word: REVIVAL. sermonindex is not a organisation, business, or any attempt by man to build something for God. It is rather a expression of a heart burden to see the Church revived and brought back to holiness, purity, and power with God. “The mission of SermonIndex is the preservation and propogation of classical vintage preaching and the promotion of genuine biblical revival to this generation.” To download more sermons visit SermonIndex at: http://www.sermonindex.net

Can ‘Christians’ use Paul’s “Forgetting the things which are behind…I press on” statement as an excuse to not get right with those they’ve hurt? Paul also said: “I also practice ALWAYS having a conscience void of offense toward God and men.” What if you don’t repent? And what will happen when you do? The Third Great Awakening can start with us!!! We can all be happy — ‘ONE’!
