Pope Shenouda III
There is no doubt that the Being who is present everywhere is Infinite. God alone is Infinite and consequently the quality of being everywhere belongs to Him alone because there is no Infinite Being besides Him. God is in heaven and at the same time He is on earth, because heaven is His throne and earth His footstool (Matt. 34:35); (Is .66:1). His presence in places of worship is but a type of His general presence everywhere. Thus Solomon the Sage said at the consecration of the temple: "Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You. How much less this temple which I have built!" (1 Kin. 8:27)
