Not a lot of work on theistic arguments has been devoted to drawing connections between a necessary being and theistic properties.
In this paper, I identify novel paths from a necessary being to certain theistic properties: volition, infinite power, infinite
knowledge, and infinite goodness. The steps in those paths are an outline for future work on what William Rowe (The Cosmological
Argument, 1975, p. 6) has called “stage II” of the cosmological argument.
