Abstract:
During the Great Awakening in Britain and its colonies, George Whitefield had little success in North Carolina in spreading his doctrine. While Whitefield failed, the Separate Baptists from New England had greater success after 1755 led by Shubal Stearns and Daniel Marshall. Numerous Baptists joined the Separates who founded many churches before the American Revolution.
