"Generally, when you get to the point where you try to support a non-Biblical belief by saying, “God can do anything,” it is a clear sign it’s all you have - meaning nothing Biblical."

I said "God is Almighty and can do anything."

He is omniscient, knowing all things; always existed and always shall exist; creator of all things, visible and invisible; almighty, Love Itself, and the list goes on, as He is infinite. He is One God in Three Divine Persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

That's what my Catholic Faith is based on. Everything stems from there, and everything in summary returns to it. Not written verbatim in the Bible? Perhaps not. But it is the sum and substance of Scripture.

Peace be with you!

If that is the basis for your faith, then you have no need of the Scriptures for any reason. You can just say, “Well, God can do anything!!”

You can claim pizza in your shoe makes you spiritually alive. Others may call that claim into question because God revealed everything we need to know for salvation and Christian maturity. You will simply reply, “God is Almighty and can do anything!”

Actually, there are many things God cannot do, but we’ll save that for another discussion.

And...

If all you have is “God is Almighty and can do anything,” then there is no point discussing anything with you at all that we know about Christ through Scripture, anything about the Church, anything about the future, anything about our faith. You are clearly not interested in that, from your declaration. OK then.

So I agree, there is nothing else that can be discussed spiritually or Biblically with you.
