'''Immanent theism''' is the principle that [[God]] is both the [[Creator]] of the world and remains immanent in the world by virtue of being its most intimate First Cause.

Immanent theism is very similar to certain other theological beliefs. The concept of [[Panentheism]], coined in the 1830s and suggests that God is both immanent and transcendent by virtue of having made the world from part of Himself. [[Pandeism]], introduced in the 1850s suggests that God is immanent in the world by virtue of having made the world from all of Himself (leaving nothing but the Universe, as in [[Pantheism]]).
