About this Quote

In this quote, theorist Arthur Peacocke talks about the principle of classical philosophical theism and its belief in the separation in between God and the produced world. He explains that this difference is vital for any true theistic belief. According to this viewpoint, God and the world are comprised of various substances and have special qualities that specify to each. This implies that God is not just a part of the world, however rather exists outside of it as a separate entity. This ontological difference is very important in understanding the relationship in between God and the world, and is a fundamental element of classical philosophical theism.
