Dave Hunt Tells Us What God Cannot Do
In an article entitled "What a Sovereign God Cannot Do" (we could stop right there and talk about that phrase alone) Dave Hunt tells us many, many things that he believes God can not do. Among them is this:
"It is impossible that the power of choice could challenge God's sovereignty..."
Did you hear what you said? It's like saying "it's impossible for a challenge to God's sovereignty to challenge God's sovereignty", or, "God is the boss, but only if I say so."
Would you like to be the person to walk up to the throne and tell God that he must respect your decisions?
To learn some more things a (supposed) sovereign god can not do, see the article:

No, no, no. You're getting it all wrong. God can sovereignly choose to respect our own sovereignty, allowing us to be sovereign over our own lives in a way that then allows him to be sovereign based on what we choose to do or not do, as viewed through the "corridor of time." So, he's totally sovereign, only it's kind of limited by our own sovereignty, which isn't really a limitation because God sovereignly chooses to respect our sovereignty. Don't you understand?
Yeah, me neither.
Now, if you want to talk about whether or not God can create a rock so big he can't lift it, well then...
"The free-will of man is the most marvelous of the Creator's works"
Wow...!! What passage of the Bible did that come from???
NONE!
"For God so loved the world that he gave us a glorious Libertarian Freewill, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life" -Pelagius 3:16
