For Sécretan, all necessities, even logical ones, are relative; God created logical, mathematical, and moral truths: truth and good are divine creation. The order of the world is necessary because it is a free effect of divine will: everywhere necessity rests on freedom and presupposes it. The absolute is God with respect to the world because divine attributes exist only with respect to the world.
