	Kids.Net.Au - Encyclopedia > Second Great Awakening
		The revival in western New York was largely the work of Charles Gradison Finney[?], a lawyer from Adams, New York.
		The area from Lake Ontario to the Adirondack mountains had been the scene of so many religious revivals in the past that it was known as the "Burned-Over District." In 1821 Finney experienced something of a religious epiphany and set out to preach the Gospel in western New York.
		Finney preached in the Burned-Over District throughout the 1820s and the early 1830s, before moving to Ohio in 1835 to take a chair in theology at Oberlin College.

		Its best-known proponent was the Rev. Charles Gradison Finney, whose career took off after his dynamic evangelical revivals in New York's upstate "Burned-Over District" in the late 1820s.
		Finney's brand of Christianity demanded perfection but allowed for repentant sinners to return to the fold.
		Although the greatest impact of these movements was in the North, the evangelical ideas of the Great Awakening affected all sections of the country, and much of the style of modern-day evangelical Christianity is a continuance of that pioneered by Finney and his contemporaries.

	Past Anti-Masons - Rev. Charles Finney
		Charles Grandison Finney (1792-1875) was a flamboyant evangelist of the "Second Great Awakening" - a religious revival - in the United States.
		Reverend Finney is another of those who was a Freemason and then, upon his conversion to Christianity, suddenly determined that his new-found faith and Masonry were incompatible.
		Finney supposedly renounced his membership in the fraternity immediately after his conversion yet it was some 48 years later that he spoke out by publishing (in 1869) "The Character, Claims, and Practical Workings of Freemasonry" attacking the order of which he had once been a member.

	Charles G. Finney - CHARLES GRANDISON FINNEY - Charles Finney 1792-1875
		Josiah Finney, the grandfather of Charles, was, (as the genealogical tables pretty surely indicate) the grandson of John Finney, second, who was born in Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1638, and whose father (John), together with his mother and brother Robert, was among the early settlers of Plymouth.
		Finney's conversion belongs to the same class as that of the apostle Paul, in which the inward change of character is necessarily connected with a complete transformation of the outward conduct.
		Finney preached for an hour and a half upon the blessedness of the righteous, and upon the fearfulness of the award in store for the wicked; but he called for no expression of feeling, and dismissed the congregation with the announcement that he would preach again on the next evening.

	A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing: How Charles Finney's Theology Ravaged the Evangelical Movement
		Finney's credibility is further marred by the fact that when he later read the Westminster Standards and realized he disagreed on almost every crucial point, he did not resign the commission he had received under false pretenses.
		Finney denied that the righteousness of Christ is the sole ground of our justification, teaching instead that sinners must reform their own hearts in order to be acceptable to God.
		But Charles Finney was unwilling to let Christians rest in the promise of "no condemnation," and he ridiculed the idea of security in Christ as a notion that would lead to licentious living.

	The Walden Woods Projects Thoreau Institute
		When Emerson asserted that the individual partakes in the divinity of God, he was not advocating the perfectionism of Finney or Noyes.
		Instead, Emerson believes every individual has a so-called "spark of divinity," but that this is realized by an acceptance of the inner-self or "Oversoul," as he terms it, and not by an acceptance, per se, of the Holy Spirit or Christ.
		Reportedly, Charles Theodore Russell once burst into Thoreau’s dorm to harass him and a newly arrived Concord freshman because of their town pride.
