He alone has within Himself the power of being.
“In Him we live and move and have our being” (Acts 17:28).
“He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together” (Col 1:16-17)..
“He Himself gives to all people life and breath and all things” (Acts 17:25).
He is the source and sustaining necessity for all other existence.
“Worthy art Thou, our Lord and our God, to receive glory and honor and power;
for Thou didst create all things, and because of Thy will they existed, and were created”
(Rev 4:11).
All creation, animate and inanimate, is dependent on the Eternal God and on the unlimited capacity for being and life He possesses within Himself. There is an eternal and infinite “fulness” in God. The universe is only a faint expression of His life.
