2 Psalm 139: 7-12 7 Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? 8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. 9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, 10 even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. 11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me," 12 even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. (Ps 139:7-12)

6 神是簡單的 /God is simple 我們都用心相信, 用口承認, 只有一位純潔, 屬靈 的神, 那就是永遠, 不可思議, 無形, 永恆, 不變, 全能, 全智, 公義, 善良與眾善之源的真活神. “We all believe in our hearts and confess with our mouths,” says the Belgic Confession (1561), “that there is a single and simple spiritual being, whom we call God—eternal, incomprehensible, invisible, unchangeable, infinite, almighty, completely wise, just, and good, and the overflowing source of all good.” (Article 1).

7 神是簡單的 /God is simple God is not made up of goodness, mercy, justice, and power. He is goodness, mercy, justice, and power. Every attribute of God is identical with his essence. God may have justice or wrath, but he is love.

10 神是簡單的 /God is simple 愛是 — 6 不喜歡不義,只喜歡真理; ( 林前 13:6) 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. (1Cor 13:6) 10 慈愛和誠實彼此相遇;公義和平安彼此相 親。 ( 詩 85:10) 10 Love and faithfulness meet together; righteousness and peace kiss each other. (Ps 85:10)

19 II. God is in this world and outside of this world. 8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths (in Sheol, NKJV), you are there. (Ps 139:8) 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. (2Cor 5:10) 27 Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, (Heb 9:27)

20 II. God is in this world and outside of this world. God made us a morally responsible being. Not like a Pachinko

21 III. He is in our conscience (vv.11-12). 11 If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me," 12 even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. (Ps 139:11-12) 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1John 1:9)

22 III. He is in our conscience (vv.11-12). The illustration of gravity does not hold.

23 III. He is in our conscience (vv.11-12). God is in our soul and spirit. 26.... We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. (Rom 8:26)

24 Conclusion God is Omnipresent 1. He wants to help us everywhere we are, anywhere we go (vv.9-10). 2. God is in this world and outside of this world (v.8). 3. He is in our conscience (vv.11-12).
