Divinity
In
religious terms,
divinity or is the state of things that come from a
supernatural power or
deity, such as a
god,
supreme being,
Creator-God or
spirits, and are therefore regarded as
sacred and
holy. Such things are regarded as "divine" due to their
transcendental origins, and/or because their attributes or qualities are superior or supreme relative to things of the
Earth. Divine things are regarded as
eternal and based in
truth, while material things are regarded as
ephemeral and based in
illusion. Such things that may qualify as "divine" are
apparitions,
visions,
prophecies,
miracles, and in some views also the
soul, or more general things like
resurrection,
immortality,
grace, and
salvation. Otherwise what is or is not divine may be loosely defined, as it is used by different
belief systems.
