Divine life which is "All in all," with any or all things which it has created, such as may be traced on almost every page of the Doctor's pamphlet, may be set down as one of the "errors" not "repudiated" by him. God, spirit and matter are not to be confounded: (a) God is life, substance and form in Himself; (b) spirit is created substance and form, receptive of life; and (c) matter is created substance and form, in itself dead and reactive to life.
In like manner God, man and nature are distinct: (a) God alone is the creator of recipient forms and the giver of life; (b) man is created a spiritual, substantial form, coordinate with the spiritual world, clothed upon with a dead, passive and reactive body co-ordinate with the material world; (c) life from God flows immediately into man's organic will and understanding, imparting and maintaining power to love and think and do, and also mediately through the spiritual world according to the quality of his love and thought and deed; thus (d) man lives by immediate influx from God but by mediate influx through associate angels and spirits, and by the reaction of the natural world, he lives in freedom and rationality.
