  • @JLRfalconpunched He can however remake the meaning of any word or statement thereby making it logically possible

  • Wow! Great answer!

  • They are objective because they are established by Himself, the supreme authority, the only one able to establish and declare such. He is the source and basis for them.

    Your arguments are thoroughly unconvincing.

    We are speaking about the eternal omnipotent omniscient omnipresent Creator God.

    not harry potter.

  • Well here is the last response, actually. I meant to say he wouldn't be objective, not subjective >_>

    Sorry Mr. Piper for uh.... Making this into a battleground, but it had to be done. If you actually support people like this lunatic, maybe I shouldn't be apologizing.

  • This is my last response. He wouldn't be subjective if he was changing the laws to fit his will.

    Really though, Harry Potter can change these laws himself, he can fly on a broomstick and all. Perhaps you should venture into those scriptures.

    Cya.

  • I have done no such thing.

    My contention is that God is able to defy your own ability to reason. He is not bound by your perception of logic.

    He is omnipotent, obviously He would be able to do both.

  • In a way yes, God never lies. He can easily do things which defy your understanding. He established the laws of the universe, He can create new ones, remove old ones, twist existing ones, or even outright break them.

    God determines reality itself.

  • From the looks of this piss poor response, you've submitted yourself into defeat. You are the one who mentions logic, and this is the most logical statement of them all.

    If your God creates a rock he cannot lift he is weak. At the same time if God can lift any rock, he is not powerful enough to make something more powerful, meaning he does not have ultimate power.

    The only way for you to get yourself out of this one is backpedaling, which you can't do given your perfect Bible.

    You lose.

  • There's more issues than that. If the bible is true then there should be people like yourself and kim jong ill. Everything we would expect to find, we do.

    Indeed I would believe in God no matter what, even to the death ... my entire life will be dedicated to the furtherance of the Gospel.

    Good luck defeating the muslims.

    Anyway, it's prophesied that these times would come ... and indeed God will eventually put an end to the rebellion. To the shame of all those who have turned from Him.

  • So basically:

    

    "God can do it. I don't know how he could do it, but he could definitely do it. He told me he could."
