This is from an unpublished manuscript of BH Roberts. It almost ended up in a church manual, enjoy:

"This Light then, the Light of Truth and named for us men "the Light of Christ"--"which proceedeth forth from the presence of God to fill the immensity of space,"--is also God, even the Spirit of God, or of the Gods, for it proceeds forth or vibrates, or radiates from all the Gods--from all who have partaken of the One Divine Nature--hence "the God of all other Gods"--mentioned by our Prophet of the New Dispensation (Doc. and Cov. sec. cxxi) "the God of Gods," "the Lord of Lords," proceeding from MANY yet ONE! Incarnated in all personal Deities, yet proceeding forth from them, to extend the one God into all space that He might be in and through all things; bearing all the powers in earth and sun and stars; world-sustaining power and guiding force. Bearing all the mind and spiritual attributes of God into the immensity of space, becoming God everywhere present-- omni-present; and everywhere present with power--omnipotent; extending everywhere the power of God; also All-Knowing; All-Seeing; All-Hearing--Omniscient! Bearing forth in fact all the attributes of Deity: Knowledge, Wisdom, Judgment, Truth, Holiness, Mercy--every characteristic or quality of all Divine Intelligences--since they are one; and this Divine Essence of spirit becoming "the Light which is in all things, that giveth life to all things which is the law by which all things are governed, even the POWER of God, who sitteth upon His throne, who is in the bosom of eternity, who is in the midst of all things." United in this Divine Essence, or Spirit is the mind of all Gods; and all the Gods being incarnations of this Spirit, become God in unity; and by the incarnation of this Spirit in Divine Personages, they become the Divine Brotherhood of the Universe, the ONE GOD, though made of many. "
