Since necessary existence is positive, it must follow from Godlikeness.

In which Jesus is a paradigm individual rather than the unique bearer of godlikeness.

Moreover, Godlikeness is an essence of God, since it entails all positive properties, and any nonpositive property is the negation of some positive property, so God cannot have any nonpositive properties.

That was Anne Askew, the criminal, the condemned--Anne Askew, who was an atheist only for this, because she did not believe in the king's vast elevation and godlikeness, and would not subject her own free soul to that of the king.
