That all things were created by God, and that there is\r\nno creature which exists but has derived from Him its being,\r\nis established from many declarations of Scripture; those\r\nassertions being refuted and rejected which are falsely alleged\r\nby some respecting the existence either of a matter co-eternal\r\nwith God, or of unbegotten souls, in which they would have\r\nit that God implanted not so much the power of existence,\r\nas equality and order. For even in that little treatise called\r\n<i>The Pastor or Angel of Repentance</i>, composed by Hermas, we\r\n<span class=\"pageno\" id=\"Page_35\">35</span>have the following: “First of all, believe that there is one\r\nGod who created and arranged all things; who, when nothing\r\nformerly existed, caused all things to be; who Himself contains\r\nall things, but Himself is contained by none.”<a id=\"r80\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f80\"><sup>[80]</sup></a> And\r\nin the book of Enoch also we have similar descriptions. But\r\nup to the present time we have been able to find no statement\r\nin holy Scripture in which the Holy Spirit could be\r\nsaid to be made or created,<a id=\"r81\"></a><a class=\"c007 pginternal\" href=\"#f81\"><sup>[81]</sup></a> not even in the way in which\r\nwe have shown above that the divine wisdom is spoken of by\r\nSolomon, or in which those expressions which we have discussed\r\nare to be understood of the life, or the word, or the\r\nother appellations of the Son of God. The Spirit of God,\r\ntherefore, which was borne upon the waters, as is written in\r\nthe beginning of the creation of the world, is, I am of opinion,\r\nno other than the Holy Spirit, so far as I can understand;\r\nas indeed we have shown in our exposition of the passages\r\nthemselves, not according to the historical, but according to\r\nthe spiritual method of interpretation.</p>","headings":["The Writings of Origen, Vol. 1 of 2","ORIGEN DE PRINCIPIIS.","BOOK I.","CHAPTER III.
