Explore "God's World" by Charles Kingsley on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
(_Preached before the Prince of Wales_, _at Sandringham_, 1866.) GENESIS I. 1. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
IT may seem hardly worth while to preach upon this text. Every one thinks that he believes it. Of course-they say-we know that God made the world. Teach us something we do not know, not something which we do. Why preach to us about a text which we fully understand, and believe already?
