As a first step forming our idea on Him, we imagine our body away and see our soul existing and functioning bodily. It is part-less, space-less, and immortal; its knows, loves, decides, acts. And all those things are true of God. But our soul is not God's equal, it is only his image. God is infinite, we are not.

God can confer existence upon other beings, precisely because he has it in his own right. It is his nature to exist. God does not have to receive existence, because He is existence.That is the primary truth about God. He is, He exists, with all the existence in its fullness, we shall look deeper into that. Everywhere means where everything is.

The phrase "God" is everywhere means that God is in everything, clearly a spiritual being and it is not a material being as water is in a cup. We must look for a different meaning for the word in. A spiritual being is said to be where it operates, is the things that receive the effects of its power. My soul, for instance, is in every part of my body, not by being spread out so that every bodily part has a little bit of some to itself, but because the souls life-giving energies pour into every part of the body. Everything whatsoever receives the energy of God, bringing it into existence and keeping it there; that is sense in which God is omnipresent, is everywhere, in everything. It is no convenience for God of course. He does not need things. But they need him, desperately.

Now we look at the question "before the universe was created". Just as where is a word of space and God is not in space - so before is a word of time - and God is not time, either. Our material universe is continuously changing , and time belongs to it. God is changeless, so time has no meaning in relation with him. We are in time, God is eternity.

I have through years of reading, pondering, reflecting and contemplating, the 3 things that last; FAITH . HOPE . LOVE and I would like to made available my sharing from the many thinkers, authors, scholars and theologians whose ideas and thoughts I have borrowed. God be with them always. Amen!

I STILL HAVE MANY THINGS TO SAY TO YOU BUT THEY WOULD BE TOO MUCH FOR YOU NOW. BUT WHEN THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH COMES, HE WILL LEAD YOU TO THE COMPLETE TRUTH, SINCE HE WILL NOT BE SPEAKING AS FROM HIMSELF, BUT WILL SAY ONLY WHAT HE HAS LEARNT; AND HE WILL TELL YOU OF THE THINGS TO COME.

HE WILL GLORIFY ME, SINCE ALL HE TELLS YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM WHAT IS MINE. EVERYTHING THE FATHER HAS IS MINE; THAT IS WHY I SAID: ALL HE TELLS YOU WILL BE TAKEN FROM WHAT IS MINE. - JOHN 16:12-15 -
