119. The Spirit is not, then, sent as it
were from a place, nor does He proceed as from a place, when He
proceeds from the Son, as the Son Himself, when He says, “I came

xvi. 28. destroys all fancies, which can be
reckoned as from place to place. In like manner, also, when we
read that God is within or without, we certainly do not either enclose
God within anybody or separate Him from anybody, but weighing these
things in a deep and ineffable estimation, we comprehend the hiddenness
of the divine nature.
