23: Where is God?

Where is God? Well, that’s sort of a trick question. Many people might say God is in heaven. The truth is that God is everywhere. The word we use to describe that is omnipresent. The prefix omni means all. So the word omnipresent means that God is present everywhere. There are no limits on God regarding where he is or where he can be. You have a body, and your body can only be in one place. If you’re in Singapore right now, you can’t also be in India. God doesn’t have size dimensions or an amount of space that he takes up. He is present in every point of the universe at the same time. This does not mean that everything is God. That would be pantheism. But it means there is no place where God is not present.
