If God is spirit, is matter something separate and distinct from Him, “preadjascent
matter,” as Saint Thomas would say? Did matter coexist eternally with God before the
creation of the universe? And was the process of creation, therefore, one in which God
acted upon matter so as to mold the universe out of it?
This sound plausible to our common-sense judgment; but God is presumed to be
infinite having no limits at all. And if matter coexist with Him before the beginning if the
world, then God does have limits. That portion of existence which was matter then was

By intuition, I know that I exist. I also know by intuition that nothing cannot produce
something. Something has always existed; for if this were not true, I who now exist would
either have been produced by nothing or else by something which in turn arose out of
nothing. And this has already been acknowledged to be impossible. This something
which always existed must be most powerful since it would have to be the source of all
power. It also must be a knowing something, or how could it produce knowing things,
such as man. Therefore there must be a God who is an eternal, all-powerful, and all-
knowing being.
