Please explain to me the difference between going 'against logic' and going 'outside' logic. For humans, how is this difference presented?

Your post #357 put it easiest:

it's quite possible for Him to act in a way, that to us, appears illogical or contradictory.

Against logic: "All lawyers are liars. I am a lawyer."

Outside logic: Gen 1:3 "And God said, Let there be light: and there was light."

"logic" itself was 'recognized' by us humans; and our understanding is flawed.

1Corinthians 13:9-12 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away. When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

Isn't our understanding yet still as children?
