This is not a question of God’s power. It is a question of God’s character and will.

God cannot lie.

• Titus 1:2

• Hebrews 6:18

• John 4:8, 16 – God is love.

• John 8:12 – God is light.

• John 14:6; I John 2:21 – God is truth.

God cannot fail.

• Premillenialists claim that Jesus failed and had to setup the church instead.

• Isaiah 42:1-9 – Jesus would not fail!

God could not remain in the grave.

• Acts 2:24

• Hebrews 2:3-4

• John 10:18

God cannot accept man in his sins.

• John 8:21

• Ephesians 1:7

• Hebrews 9:22

• Matthew 11:27-28

• Matthew 18:19; Acts 2

• I Corinthians 15:58

• Philippians 3:13-14

• I Peter 2:5-12

God cannot condemn man in his righteousness

• Mark 16:16; I John 1:7

We have noticed some things that God cannot do. In each case it was His nature and character that made it impossible for Him to do those things.
