theistic
This term describes a specific philosophical or religious stance that posits a personal deity who is not only the creator of the universe but remains active within it. It carries a formal, academic tone and is typically used in theological debates or scholarly discussions regarding the nature of existence and divinity.
It is distinct from deistic, which refers to a belief in a creator who does not intervene in the world after the act of creation. While theistic implies a relationship between the divine and the human, deistic suggests a distant, clockmaker-style deity.
