The fourth (and last) volume of discourses, or sermons, on several scriptures

Secondly, God is not only intimately §2present with his Creatures, because as he is a Spirit he passeth through the most inmost part of them, but he is intimately present with all his Creatures at once. And therein is his presence distinguished from the presence of Angels; they indeed pass from one to another, and be one in another; they may possibly stretch and dilate themselves to a great compass, but they cannot stretch themselves to an Ubiquitariness, to be in all Beings at once. If an Angel suddenly dart himself from one Point of the Heavens, through the ⟨p. 438⟩Centre of the Earth, to an opposite Point of the Heavens, and by a motion of insinuation, without impelling or driving the Air before him, yet he is not in Heaven and Earth at once, but when he is in one place he ceaseth to be in another; but it is not so with God, for he is every-where and in all things at once for ever, therefore God tells us, Do not I fill Heaven and Earth, Jer. 23.24. He is so in them, as that he doth not leave any one place void or empty of himself, for were there any places where God were not, then it could not be properly said to be filled with him.
