Can God make a rock so heavy, that he himself cannot pick it up?

Only if he decides to not be able to pick it up, his word is final and never changes. 🤔

@MartinTheFirst: then he can't make it too heavy?

@FunReader55: he can make it too heavy if he wishes to, but it's very rare that he would put a limit like that on himself. It says in the bible that the people who will go up to heaven to rule by jesus side, all the 144.000 of them as said in the scripture, will be given the gift of eternal life and they CAN never die again. And then when he speaks of the other people who will rule as kings on earth for an eternity, he says they WILL not die. Meaning that he could kill the people on earth if they acted out. However he cant kill the ones who become kings, meaning thats how much he trust the ones who goes to heaven. The devil wanted the gift of eternal life where he cant be removed, but he weren't given it.

@MartinTheFirst: hey man, i'm not doubting God and love your faith. the question is worded in a funny little way of pointing out, let's say cracks, in the concept. as the two choices are exactly opposed to one another therefore they cannot both be done. one must fail for the other to succeed!! but again, i am not in anyway knocking God!! just a little joke!!

@FunReader55: Haha I know it's just a interesting question. I believe that the only way he can not do something, is if he chooses to never do it, and when he chooses to never do it it's final, and therefore, technically, he can't do that thing... but in his power he still could... ya know? It's like he has the power to do everything, but he has thoughts that limits him if he sees it as a neccessity
