I stated that, for God to transcend the natural world, that means he transcend the laws, the logical order, and so on, which apply within the universe. This transcendence is one of primariness, not one of exemption.
It does not mean that God is "exempt from the logical order that applies to the universe", since he is the primary transcendence of that order, and it only applies because of that very fact, and it does not mean that "God is forced by the universe to follow the universe's order". It's the universe which follows Gods order.
