I think your response is largely consistent and is helpful for me to understand your point of view. So thank you for that.
I find this part about the things God cannot do interesting. We often point to the logical and orderly nature of Earth as something that points to a creator. If God is bound by rules that He himself cannot break, is that evidence for something beyond God?Doesn't God's omnipotence mean He can anything? No, I don't think so. God can do anything that is logically possible for Him to do. And He can do anything that corresponds to His nature as the "Greatest Possible Being" that we see described in the Bible. But Scripture tells us God cannot lie, He cannot be unfaithful to Himself, He cannot tempt Man to evil, and so on; there are things God cannot do. Creating a world where fewer than the very maximum who could freely come to know and love Him actually do, would contravene His good and loving divine nature, which is impossible.
