In Christianity, the primary way immanence is employed is with Jesus representing god incarnate, and through the holy spirit (two of the three entities of the holy trinity).

Immanent God
God's immanence is usually contrasted with god's transcendence. Immanence is the spiritual and philosophical tradition which declares that god is present in everything we are and do and see - he is omnipresent, literally, not only everywhere, but in everything. God manifests himself in and by the existence of the material world. Immanence is compatible with pantheism, panentheism, and many traditional monotheistic religions (including Christianity) which put value in the idea that god is always there, that his presence is felt throughout the universe and permeates our everyday experience of the physical world.
