God is omnipresent. There is no place in all of existence that God is not fully present. Since existence is absolute and eternal, its contrast "non-existence" cannot ever exist. There is no such thing as true utter nothingness. You cannot even imagine it! Even in a perfect vacuum, there is space and time.

Since there is nothing outside of God because "outside of God" does not exist. This means everything in existence, including us, must be inside of God. A better way of saying this might be: we are surrounded by God.

Someone once asked me, "What do you think the universe is expanding into?" I answered, "Certainly not into nothing!" God has no size, he is able to absorb an infinite amount of infinitely expanding universes if he so desired.

This idea is easily mistaken for pantheism. However, I do not think this idea requires an impersonal God or that all substance within existence to be divine.

What does everyone think?

It is actually much closer to panentheism.
