If God were outside me then God would be not God but one of the things that exist. To suppose an objective God is strictly speaking an indirect negation of God.

67. Of only one thing can it be asserted that it is not possible not to be, only one thing’s being is completely indubitable, apodictic necessity (necessarium apodicticum): the being which, strictly speaking, is above being.

 

68. »To be« - this expression could be referred to Metaphysicum Absolutum in an analogical way only.

 

69. If I say that God »exists«, God is supposed to be an ideal objectivity, and it is a desacralisation - that is to say a blasphemy.

 

70. If God were outside me then God would be not God but one of the things that exist. To suppose an objective God is strictly speaking an indirect negation of God.

 

71. Strictly speaking we cannot say whether God exists or not. Only in realisation will God be what God actually is; otherwise He is a possibility: the possibility of Myself. God in a sense does not exist but »may exist«.

 

72. God creates from himself, in himself and to himself: He creates into himself.

 

73. Not only can God do anything (omnipotentia) but also He does everything (omniagentia).

 

74. God is infinitely beautiful because He is infinitely similar to himself.

 

75. The omnipresence of God does not mean that He is in everything and pervades everything but that everything is in God.
