101 Things That God Can't Do: Day 1- God can't lie

God can't lie. That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to lay hold upon the hope set before us. Hebrews 6:18

I heard a pastor once state: “Either God is who he says he is, or he is not”. That statement has always stuck with me. If you truly believe God is God, then you must believe that he will never lie to you. That does not mean that all your wishes, dreams and hopes will be fulfilled, for they may not be in God's will. Know this though, God will never lie or deceive you.

When God said we are made in his image, he was not lying. When God said he first loved us, He was not lying. When God said He is preparing a mansion for us, He is not lying. When God said He will never forsake us, He is not lying. When Jesus said He is the way, the truth and the life, He was not lying. The word immutable means unchangeable. In this world where the great Deceiver is running rampant, it is comforting to know that our Creator cannot lie to us and that will never change. It is this attribute of God which solidifies our faith.
