Beskrivelse

Can God Sin? | Christ For You James 1:16–21 | Easter 5 Can God sin? Can He lie? Can He change? Can He turn against you? Serious philosophers and theologians have argued yes — that omnipotence means God must have the capacity for evil, even if He never exercises it. But what if that were true? What if every promise came with an asterisk? What if His love for you was just a preference He currently holds — and preferences change? What if the goodness runs out? In this sermon, Pastor Rojas shows why that argument gets omnipotence exactly backwards. A God who could sin would be a God that evil has power over. The fact that God cannot sin means evil has zero claim on Him, zero foothold in Him, zero power over Him. That is not weakness. That is total dominion. What does James 1:17 tell persecuted, suffering Christians about the God they are tempted to doubt? What does it mean that He is the Father of lights with no variation or shadow? Why does Hebrews 6 say it is not merely that God won’t lie — but that it is impossible? What does that impossibility mean for your darkest night? What does it mean that your soul has an anchor inside the very presence of God? And how does the cross prove, once and for all, that the Father of lights has never cast a shadow in your direction — and never could?
