As I was driving into work this morning I heard Warren Wiersbe on Back to the Bible talking about things God can't do. At first blush that might sound like an invitation to the atheist's old chestnut, "Can God make a rock so big that He can't pick it up?" (By the way, no He can't.) Instead it is a reminder that we have a God whose character is perfect.
Here is the beginning of my list of things God's character will not permit Him to do. Please send me others that I have missed.
1. God cannot do evil or be tempted by it. James 1:13
2. God can't lie. Hebrews 6:18
3. God can't get tired. Isaiah 40:28
4. God can't change. Malachi 3:6
5. God can't break His promise. Psalm 89:34
6. God can't take on a job that is too hard for Him. Jeremiah 32:17
7. God can't remember sins He has chosen to forget. Isaiah 43:25
8. God can't stop loving His own. Jeremiah 31:3
9. God can't learn anything new. Psalm 147:4-5
10. God can't allow anything to separate us from His love in Christ. Romans 8:38-39
