121 II, 10, 2 | who was the Creator of the world?" They are not in the way
122 II, 11, 1 | Father and Creator of the world, and Fashioner of man, who
123 II, 13, 3 | that He himself made the world, to guard against attributing
124 II, 13, 7 | formation of the rest of the world; which things they maintain

137 II, 16, 3 | Creator, who formed the world, is the only God, and that
138 II, 19, 4 | while its descent to this world added all these things to

143 II, 28, 2 | mean such as belong to this world, which we handle, and see,
144 II, 28, 2 | matter connected with this world, escapes our knowledge.
145 II, 28, 3 | not only in the present world, but also in that which
146 II, 28, 3 | doing before He made the world?" we reply that the answer
147 II, 28, 3 | God Himself. For that this world was formed perfect by God,
148 II, 28, 7 | grace [from Him in this world]. But when we investigate
149 II, 28, 8 | scheme of things in this world, should leave perfect knowledge,
150 II, 28, 9 | things which are in this world,--as, for instance, the
151 II, 29, 1 | of the Saviour [to this world]. If, on the other hand,
152 II, 30, 3 | they adorned this sublunary world? or, what multitude of animals
