God Can't Do Everything

God can't do everything. There are even some things humans can do that God cannot do.

That is not an insult to Him.

  • God cannot lie (Titus 1:2) because He is truth.
  • God cannot be tempted by sin (James 1:13) because He is goodness and love.
  • God cannot die because He is eternal (Psalm 90:2).
  • God cannot force us to obey Him and maintain free will (Joshua 24:15).
  • God cannot change (Malachi 3:6) because he is the Ultimate of all goodness.
  • God cannot learn because He knows all (Hebrews 4:13).
  • God cannot grow because He is perfect (Psalm 18:30).
  • God cannot ignore sin forever because He is Just (Acts 17:30).
  • God cannot act in an unloving way because His nature is love (1 John 4:8).
  • God cannot be overcome because He is all-powerful (Job 36:22).


Yes, there are some things humans can do that God cannot.

That in no way should be considered a point of pride.

There is a God. We are not He.
