The hypothetical question is often asked —
“Can God make a rock so big that He cannot lift it?”
We would have to say “no” because “nothing is impossible” for God. (Matthew 19:26) He is “all powerful” —
Jeremiah 10:12 — “He has made the earth by His power;
He has established the world by His wisdom,
and has stretched out the heavens by His understanding.”
This may surprise you . . . but there are several things that God cannot do that are contrary to His very nature:
1. God cannot lie because God cannot sin.
Titus 1:2 — “In hope of eternal life, which God, Who cannot lie, promised before the world began.”
James 1:13 — “Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God; for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempts He any man.”
2. God cannot break His promises.
Numbers 23:19 — “God is not a man, that He should lie, neither the son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and shall He not do it? Or has he spoken and shall He not make it good?”
3. God cannot change.
Malachi 3:6 — “I am the LORD, I change not.”
Hebrews 13:8 — “Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever.”
4. God cannot forgive sin without the shedding of innocent blood… HIS!
Hebrews 9:22 — ”…without the shedding of blood, there is no remission.”
1 John 1:7 — ”…the blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son, cleanses us from all sins.”
5. God cannot let anyone into heaven unless they sincerely believe in His Son, Jesus Christ, as their Savior.
John 3:36 — “He that believes on the Son has everlasting life; and he that believes not the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him.”
6. God cannot let anyone into heaven unless they have been “born-again.”
John 3:3-5, 7 — “Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto you. Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
vs. 7 — “Ye must be born again.”
John 3:16 —
“For God so loved the world (you), that He gave his only begotten Son (Jesus), that whosoever believeth in Him (in the fact that He came to earth to save all of mankind from their destiny of eternal torment in HELL by going to the cross and taking the sins of humanity on Himself so they can go to Heaven) should not perish (go to HELL for the rest of eternity), but have everlasting life (Spend the rest of eternity in HEAVEN).“
