ABSTRACT
God is universally present in the world of matter. He is the substantiality of matter. The circle of his being in space has an infinite radius. Conscious man may be very dissimilar to unconscious matter, but yet their relations to God are analogous. Both depend on him. The Nature or Substance of God, as represented by our Idea of him, is divisible or not divisible. If infinite he must be indivisible, a part of God cannot be in this point of space, and another in that; his Power in the sun, his Wisdom in the moon, and his Justice in the earth. All Nature then is but an exhibition of God to the senses; the veil of smoke on which his shadow falls; the dew-drop in which the heaven of his magnificence is poorly imaged. The Infinite God must fill each point of Spirit as of Space.
