GILBERT
BELIEVED IN GOD
“God, by whose rod all things are governed…”
(Gilbert, 1989, 105).
"…on the superficies of the globes is plainly seen the host
of souls and of inanimate existences, and in their great and delightful
diversity the Creator taketh pleasure”
(Ibid, 105).
“By the supreme wisdom of the Creator, forces were
implanted in the earth, forces primarily inanimate, to the end the globe might,
with steadfastness take direction…”
(Ibid, 111).
