UPDATE 12: (8:18 PM CST) Glenn Beck attacks George Whitefield for owning slaves, but there is more to the story Beck leaves out.

It should be pointed out that Beck knows and has spoken of the whole story on Whitfield on his show. This includes the story of Surrey, the slave given to Whitfield's wife. Whitfield said she was welcome in his home but would enter as a free woman or not at all.

Beck has spoken of Whitfield's support of slavery as a means to an end in freedom and Christianity.

"Here then I could conclude; but I must not forget the poor negroes; no, I must not. Jesus Christ had died for them, as well as for others."

A common finish to many Whitfield sermons.
