It must be said that God's
existence can be proved in five
ways. The first and most obvious
way is based on the existence of
motion. It is certain and in fact
evident to our senses that some
things in the world are moved.
Everything that is moved, however,
is moved by something else, for a
thing cannot be moved unless that
movement is potentially within it. A
thing moves something else insofar
as it actually exists, for to move
something is simply to actualize
what is potentially within that thing.
Something can be led thus from
potentiality to actuality only by
something else which is already
actualized.
