In essence, He would change. Scripture teaches that God does not change. According to James, there is no variableness nor shadow of turning in God (James 1:17).
Jan 4, 2022 · Because He is holy (Isaiah 6:3; 1 Peter 1:16), He cannot sin. Because He is just, He cannot merely overlook sin.

Truly our God is an awesome God—unchanging, eternal, unlimited in power, in majesty, in knowledge ...

Even before this world came into existence, God has existed from time everlasting (Psalm 90:2); He is above the conditions of time and space. As an absolute self-existent being, He sustains no such relations to time and space as those sustained by every finite being. To God, there is no tim...
God is so constituted that He cannot change; He is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Psalm 102:25-27; Malachi 3:6; Hebrews 13:8). While all creatures change, God is perpetually the same. God has never been changed in His essence, not even in His incarnation. God remains everlastingly, eternally, the one unchanging God. God’s immutability is s...

God is omnipotent in creation (Genesis 1:1-3; Isaiah 44:24), omnipotent in salvation (Jude 24-25), and omnipotent in the resurrection (John 10:17-18). But it is important to note that although God has the power to do anything, He cannot do anything that is contrary...

Firstly, God can do anything consistent with his perfect nature (Rev. 1:8, 19:6). But he cannot do anything contrary to his nature. For instance, he cannot: Lie (Heb. 6:18) Be tempted to sin (Jas. 1:13). Deny Himself (2 Tim. 2:13). Secondly, God’s omnipotence does not mean that he must do all that he can do. It simply means that he has the ...

Aug 12, 2014 · No, God can’t do anything. Clearly the Bible affirms God’s power. Job 9:4 says, “His power is vast.”. Psalm 24:8 refers to the Lord as “strong and mighty.”. Isaiah 40:26 says that out of His “great power and mighty strength” God brought forth the universe. Don’t these passages indicate there is no limit to God’s power?
