A Misunderstanding

There is an anecdote of London
bishop who. having read that story OF
John Wesley cutting out every word
of his discourse that his serving maid
did not understand, determined to
preach to country congregation the
simplest sermon he could write. He
chose an elementary subject and took
as his text, The fool hath said in his
heart, There is no God. " On leaving
the church he asked the parish clerk
what he thought of the sermon. ooh,
my lord, said he, sit was very fine
very fine and grand. I've been
talking it over with Mr.. Beard, and
we said how fine it was. But, after all,
we cant help thinking that there is a
God. Chambers Journal.
