God Is [Children's Catechism 10—Theology Simply Explained]

Pastor walks his children through Children's Catechism question 10—especially explaining how God is present everywhere but not located anywhere.

Q10. Where is God? God is everywhere.

The sermon explores the theological nuances of God's omnipresence, clarifying that it is not God being *in* every location, but rather that every location exists *within* God's presence. It distinguishes between omnipresence and omnilocation, emphasizing that God's inherent existence and self-sufficiency define His being, while creation depends on Him for existence. The discussion further examines the person of Jesus Christ, explaining that as the Son, He occupies a specific location – heaven – due to His divine nature and human embodiment, demonstrating that God's presence can be understood through the person of Christ. Ultimately, the sermon affirms the traditional answer to the question 'Where is God?' as 'God is everywhere,' while providing a more sophisticated understanding of what that statement entails.
