 The idea, then, is that God’s power is not the maximum, or limit simpliciter, of an ordered series of instances of power, but the limit case of power. This implies that God’s power is not an instance of power any more than a zero-place predicable is a predicable. No doubt this will surprise the perfect-being theologians, but, in mitigation, it can be said that God’s power, though not an instance of power, is that to which the ordered series of power-instances points, and is therefore something to which the members of that series stand in a definite relation.
