I think that the doctrine of "Ex Nihilo" which is derived from scripture, is stating that God created everything from himself. That there was nothing outside of God, with which he was working.........? The doctrine of ex nihilo is creation out of nothing (literally). Unless you think god is nothing, they don't quite match.
OTOH, being created out of god also opens up troublesome lines of inquiry as well. As per your ongoing description...god is a being limited by what is logically possible from which life (among other things - but definitely not all things-) originates. You fit that description pretty well yourself................
