On this supposition science is not full of empty words, nor of mere creations of our reason, but of necessary relations represented in a necessary being, and known by it from all eternity.
The necessary relations of things, independently of their existence, must have a sufficient reason; and this can only be in necessary being.
We conclude, from our reflections upon this, that there must be beyond the contingent world a necessary being in which may be founded that necessary truth which is the object of science.
Nevertheless, space is so conceived of, for all parts of space are equally capable of being produced to infinity.
And this is the case with phenomena, as regards that in them which is referable to mere sensation.
The pure cosmological proof demonstrates the existence of a necessary being, but at the same time leaves it quite unsettled, whether this being is the world itself, or quite distinct from it.
If a rotary pump leaks, the efficiency is not impaired so much as in a piston or plunger pump, all that is necessary being to run the pump at a high speed.
So when I say of a thing it is contingent, I simply deny it to be necessary being, and I could not deny a thing to be necessary being if I had no intuition of necessary being.
Therefore the existence of contingent beings absolutely requires the existence of a Necessary Being, which always was in existence.
A necessary Being, on the contrary, essentially must be; it cannot not be; it is absolutely and essentially its own existence.
Thus we must finally come to a being that was not produced, or a necessary being.
A necessary being is inferred to exist, because the past series of events cannot contain all the conditions of an event, unless the unconditioned is to be found among them.
A necessary being is denied to exist, because the series of merely conditioned events contains all the conditions that there are.
All that is intelligible is either necessary being, or contingent existence having its cause in necessary being.
For it is not reducible to act except by a prior cause which is then itself actual, necessary being, and ultimate cause.
The above list will hopefully provide you with a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "necessary being" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this group of words.
