God's relationship with the world- immanent and transcendant
Immanence - God is close and involved with the world. It is said he is closer than the jugular vein and is vital to human existence. He helps us, inspires us and gives us purpose.
Transcendence - God is above human understanding. He is outside of time and space whilst being immanent. He is eternal, limitless and omnipotent.
