Lie:


Hbr 6:17 Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed [it] by an oath:
Hbr 6:18 That by two immutable things, in which [it was] impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us:
Hbr 6:19 Which [hope] we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the veil;

Re: What is one thing that impossible for God to do, but man does quite well?
hate, sin, destroy etc
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 30814020


yes it is true God cannot sin
as for "hate"-
"There are six things that Jehovah does hate; yes, seven are things detestable to his soul: lofty eyes, a false tongue, and hands that are shedding innocent blood, a heart fabricating hurtful schemes, feet that are in a hurry to run to badness, a false witness that launches forth lies, anyone sending forth contentions among brothers"-Proverbs 6: 16-19
as for "destroy"-
"Jehovah is not slow respecting his promise, as some people consider slowness, but he is patient with you because he does not desire any to be destroyed but desires all to attain to repentance"- 2 Peter 3:9
so Jehovah has and will destroy the wicked
but for the thing it is impossible to do;
"...upon the basis of a hope which God, who CANNOT lie, promised before times long lasting"- Titus 1:2

God can't Love???- 1 John 4:8 says; "God IS love"

It's not just confessing, though, is it? You have to change yourself after in order for it to be forgiven by God, right? Or can you sin, be sorry about it, but continue and God pardons it?

In my view, men are much more forgiving of sins overall (even though I don't have much personal experience with God and this view of him is only going off of the Bible).

For instance, it's considered pretty much fine for people to be lustful in our society. We laugh about porn. So many people are into it (and personally, it's my major stumbling block). But then Jesus says that it's a sin to look at the opposite sex with lust in your heart. I am sorry about it, but it's like an addiction...I repent, but then I return to it.

I forgive all people for everything...I would accept every person into heaven (at least theoretically...I feel like all people at heart are deserving)...but will God forgive me of what's clearly written as this sin? Going off of the Bible...seems unlikely!

The deception of immortality;
"Now the serpent proved to be the most cautious of all the wild beasts of the field that Jehovah God had made. So it began to say to the woman: “Is it really so that God said YOU must not eat from every tree of the garden?” 2 At this the woman said to the serpent: “Of the fruit of the trees of the garden we may eat. 3 But as for [eating] of the fruit of the tree that is in the middle of the garden, God has said, ‘YOU must not eat from it, no, YOU must not touch it that YOU do not die.’” 4 At this the serpent said to the woman: “YOU positively will not die. 5 For God knows that in the very day of YOUR eating from it YOUR eyes are bound to be opened and YOU are bound to be like God, KNOWING good and bad.” Ge3:1

the Bible says we have to make changes to be forgiven-
"Repent, therefore, and turn around so as to get your sins blotted out, that seasons of refreshing may come from the person of Jehovah"- Acts 3:19
"What! Do you not know that unrighteous persons will not inherit God's Kingdom? Do not be mislead. Neither fornicators, nor adulterers, nor men kept for unnatural purposes, nor men who lie with men, nor thieves, nor greedy persons, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit God's Kingdom. AND YET THATS WHAT SOME OF YOU WERE. But you have been washed clean, but you have been sanctified, but you have been declared righteous in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ"- 1 Corinthians 6:9,10

If God is really omnipotent than by definition there is nothing he can't do he equally powerful in all aspects and contains all power that is the the power of good and the power of evil.

God cannot Sin, nor does God ever change His Mind

"And hallow my sabbaths; and they shall be a sign between me and you, that ye may know that I am the LORD your God." Ezekiel 20:20

"Ye shall keep my sabbaths, and reverence my sanctuary: I am the LORD." Leviticus 26:2

"Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?" Psalm 77:13

"My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips." Psalm 89:34

"For verily I say unto you, Till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled." Matthew 5:18

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning." James 1:17

Modern Christianity Rejects God's Sabbath, for the Day that the Beast/Little Horn power set up in place, Even though God changes Not, The people who apparently worship Him are more than Happy to swap their Gold for things of Brass instead

Most Christians embrace changes when it is written:
be ye separate and touch not the unclean thing.

Jhn 8:44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 18535219


Really? You can forgive someone who continually wrongs you or lies to you and thinks saying "sorry" makes it ok. That's the definition of an a-hole.

Saying sorry and asking forgiveness is an undertaking to try not to do that sin or crime again, even among men. Otherwise it's meaningless. The whole Jesus thing was that he had to make the sacrifice for us, because man wasn't capable of being truly sorry for his own sins.
