I. GOD

“The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God”—Psalm xiv. 1.

I have taken, or rather God has given me, for my text tonight a very short one. I do not think you ever heard a sermon from a shorter text. I will not tell you where to find the text. It occurs several hundred times in the Bible. Indeed, open your Bible at random almost anywhere and you will find my text somewhere on the page. It consists of but one word; but it would take all eternity to exhaust its meaning, and then it will not be exhausted. It is “God”—a word the height and depth and length and breadth of whose meaning no philosopher has ever fully apprehended.
