No:1 God, in regard of his essence, is in all places alike, he is wholly every where. The Godhead is altogether indivisible; things of quantity fill a room, but God is indivisible; as he is unchangeable, so he is a simple being; therefore all of God is in the whole compass of Heaven and Earth. Psal. 139. If I go to hell thou art there, &c. God is in the same manner every where;2 you must conceive no parts in God, if God be immense, then all of him is every where and altogether in every place. All creatures have their being from God, he is in them and beyond them, he is excluded out of no place, included in no place.
