COSMOS THE BODY OF GOD: ISA PURUSHA TATVA<br />

M.M.NINAN<br />

This basic definition extends over to several additional attributes. Love is expressed in relationship<br />

and would mean these in his relation with nations and people.<br />

To this can be added some <strong>of</strong> the Omni attributes extending human attributes <strong>of</strong> ability <strong>of</strong> mind, logic<br />

and movement to their limit<br />

Creeds and Confessions also define <strong>God</strong> with human relationship:<br />

The Belgic Confession<br />

Article 1<br />

The Only <strong>God</strong><br />

We all believe in our hearts and confess with our mouths<br />

that there is a single and simple spiritual being,<br />

whom we call <strong>God</strong>—<br />

eternal, incomprehensible, invisible, unchangeable, infinite, almighty;<br />

completely wise, just, and good, and the overflowing source <strong>of</strong> all good.<br />

Article 2<br />

The Means by Which We Know <strong>God</strong><br />

We know him by two means:<br />

First, by the creation, preservation, and government <strong>of</strong> the universe,<br />

since that universe is before our eyes like a beautiful book in which all creatures, great and small, are<br />

as letters to make us ponder the invisible things <strong>of</strong> <strong>God</strong>:<br />

his eternal power and his divinity,<br />

as the apostle Paul says in Romans 1:20.<br />

All these things are enough to convict men and to leave them without excuse.<br />

Second, he makes himself known to us more openly by his holy and divine Word, as much as we need<br />

in this life,<br />

for his glory and for the salvation <strong>of</strong> his own.<br />
