1 Timothy 4:4

every creature of God is good Creation in all its parts is meant, everything made by God; for this use of the word -creature" from Lat. creaturacompare the Communion Office in the Prayer-Book, -receiving these Thy creatures of bread and wine." All God's workmanship -is good, and was so pronounced by God Himself at the moment of creation." Fairbairn.

-We read in Genesis 8:21, "I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake;" and the Psalms always speak of this earth and of all created things as if there was no curse at all on them; saying that "all things serve God, and continue as they were at the beginning;" and that "He has given them a law which cannot be broken;" and in the face of those words let who will talk of the earth being cursed, I will not; and you shall not if I can help it." Kingsley, Good News of God, p. 35.

-Oh the yearning when one sees a beautiful thing to make someone else see it too! Surely it is of Heaven!… Every creature of God is good if it be sanctified with prayer and thanksgiving! This to me is the master truth of Christianity! I cannot make people see it, but it seems to me that it was to redeem man and the earth that Christ was made man and used the earth." Kingsley, Letters, Abr. ed., 1. p. 72.

nothing to be refused The form of the Greek favours the making this a separate sentence as R.V., nothing is to be rejected.
