Divinity
In religious terms, divinity or is the state of things that come from a supernatural power or deity, such as a godsupreme beingCreator-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 apparitionsvisions, propheciesmiracles, and in some views also the soul, or more general things like resurrectionimmortalitygrace, and salvation. Otherwise what is or is not divine may be loosely defined, as it is used by different belief systems.
