1867
Charles Kingsley
1867
A collection of sermons written in the late 19th century. This compilation addresses themes such as spiritual life, the human condition, and the relationship between divine and earthly matters, using illustrative biblical references to explore profound truths about life, faith, and morality. At the start of the sermon titled ''The Water of Life,'' Kingsley delves into the biblical imagery of water as a life-giving force, drawing parallels between the material and spiritual essences of life. He emphasizes the importance of seeking the divine ''Water of Life,'' which symbolizes eternal life and a deeper relationship with God. The opening develops the significance of thirst as a metaphor for the human longing for spiritual fulfillment and offers a clear invitation to all who seek a higher existence to embrace this gift freely provided by Christ. Through vivid descriptions and theological insights, Kingsley sets the stage for the discussions that follow, encouraging individuals to recognize their divine thirst and find fulfillment in God.
