[QUOTE="aiki, post: 75946699, member: 178791"] Why will God never want to sin? But isn't this to say, essentially, that sin is something God cannot do? It sounds like you're making here a distinction without a difference. ??? It is one thing to say, "God [I]will[/I] not sin"; it is quite another to say, "God [I]cannot[/I] sin." If God does not [I][U]ever[/U][/I] want to sin, like a lion does not ever want to eat a chocolate cake, is this not because of the nature of who He is? The lion does not ever want to eat chocolate cake, only antelope, and zebra, and such like, because, in its essential nature, it is a meat-eater. Likewise, God does not ever want to sin because, in His essential nature, He is perfectly holy, righteous and just. Can you explain how your view concretely and reasonably diverges from this one? As you've stated it so far, I don't see that it does... [/QUOTE]
