   1   1, 1   |            Holy Writ is God, in whose power it is to ~signify His meaning,

  23   1, 8   |               it belongs to the great power of ~God that He acts immediately
  24   1, 8   |            things giving them ~being, power and operation; so He is

  30   1, 8   |              of essence, presence and power. For what is by ~essence

  35   1, 8   |               things by His presence, power and ~substance; still He

  41   1, 8   |               is in all things by His power, inasmuch as all things

  43   1, 8   |              than God in things. But ~power is the principle of acting
  44   1, 8   |           acting on another; hence by power the agent is ~related and
  45   1, 8   |               external thing; thus by power an agent may be ~said to
  46   1, 9   |           called so in two ways: by a power in itself; and by a power
