God is a frequent character in these quotes. He is described as being the creator of everything. It is indicated that God created all things that exist including darkness, which is portrayed as being the opposite of God's character. God's most important creation, however, appears to be humans. Although God is part of these humans because he created them, God must intentionally separate Himself from these humans. God's intention is that men will respond to their innate desire to return to God and then initiate and maintain a relationship with Him.
