All things that exist can be considered sets due to the fact that they are entities unto themselves.
I don't think it's clear why everything is a set. How does being an entity onto itself make a thing a set?
Moreover, the question arises as to whether or not God may be purely defined as a mathematical object. Perhaps we can simply say those properties of God that may be expressed as a set? And so the 'God' that you are equating with Reality is a sort of limited version of God that allows you to examine some of His properties.

An equivalence relation between God and Reality suffices to demonstrate that God is real.
Realness is a property that you must prove is preserved by an equivalence relation.
For example, I can imagine a solid torus. The solid torus is homeomorphic to a coffee cup. The coffee cup is real, but the torus is not real (I've imagined it). So you need more if you want to show that God is 'real'.
