Hey, that's one I'd like to know, too. Please share.
I'm traveling and away from my books so I'm just going by memory. Try his Systematic Theology v.1 in the section on being and finitude. I'm almost certain it's in vol. 1, less certain about where.
Yes--try p. 188 of systematic vol 1.
PS. I enjoy the blog very much.
