"The Seventy's Course in Theology, Fifth Year" by B. H. Roberts is a theological work written in the early 20th century. The text centers around the themes of Divine Immanence and the Holy Ghost, exploring the relationship between God and humanity as mediated through spiritual presence. It examines complex theological concepts, including the necessity for individuals to actively seek knowledge and understanding of divine truths in contrast to passive acceptance of beliefs. At the start of the work, the author provides an introduction that serves both as a farewell to a specialized theological curriculum for the Seventies and as a prelude to the exploration of divine immanence. Roberts emphasizes the importance of intellectual and spiritual effort in understanding God’s nature and presence within the world, refuting notions of complacency in faith. He highlights the friction between faith and intellect in theological discourse, arguing for a reasoned and active understanding of spirituality, particularly focusing on the idea that God is immanent and active in the universe rather than distant or detached.
