Pentecost 1830

David J Keyser PhD. Christian History In 1829 the "Irvingite" revival broke loose and many received the Spirit in the West coast of Scotland and in Irving's Scottish church in London. Many young adults were healed, most of them of "consumption" which was most likely tuberculosis. But it was not the miraculous that got Irving in trouble with the Church of Scotland (Presbyterian.) It was his widely preached and published belief in the humanity of Jesus Christ.
