God cannot lie, his nature is holy.

“Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God's elect and the acknowledgment of the truth which accords with godliness, in hope of eternal life which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began” (Titus 1:1-2).

Did you even read what I wrote?

Did I say He can lie?

Evidently you guys think lying is a good, a thing that is an ability. I am arguing that lying AND wanting to lie is a defect, a failure, an abortion, a freak, NOT an ability but a disability. God has no disabilities. Whatever He wants to do He does.

That doesn't mean he does -- or wants to do -- what sinful man wants and does. But that is not a "cannot." It is a glorious CAN, for with Him it is always Yes,
