Learn first; There God is said to be especially, where he especially works.
Learn first; There God is said to be especially, where he especially workes.
God is no more in one place of the wo•ld than in another, as to his being and existence; for he is every w•ere, he filleth heaven and earth. We must not think that God is shu• up in the clouds as a man in his tabernacle; but because God works much in the clouds, and doth great things by the rain, thunder and lightening, therefore the clouds, whence these Meteors issue, are called his tabernacle. Where-ever God works much, he is said to dwell. Why is God said to dwell with them that are of an humble and contrite heart? even because he works much in them, and much by them. So because many great works of God are done in the Clouds, as we shall see more particularly hereafter, therefore the Lord is said to dwell there as in his tabernacle.
