Hello, I have the question of whether God's actions and what he does are requisite to his attributes and character. In other words, if God did not do xyz which he does, would that be against his mercy? And if against one attribute, then is it against the others? Also with the gospel, I was wondering. So I believe that it is false that there is any scenario..especially since God says otherwise..where we get to the end of life and actually our Creator says, that gospel thing was actually not true. I trust it is false that either God wants to and does not save true believers in Christ, or that he does not want to do so. God both wants to, and does save. I was struggling along the lives of, how should I respond if hypothetically the gospel wasn't true but there is a Creator whose help I need. Any logic, scripture passages (and of course Scripture is reasonable, and uses logic) that you would refer me to specifically? I find that the faith that saves me, or belief that saves, is not only that God COULD be saving me but can, not only could be telling the truth but is. And in harmony with Scripture.
Also I know that God agrees with all truth but I would appreciate if before responding you would consider whether you hold to the Apostle's Creed and affirming the sanctity of life and the one man/one woman marriage definition, and opposing racism, basic ethics such as that. Because I believe that these are tests that help distinguish true faith.
Syllogisms appreciated.
Another question I had is about, if God changed hypothetically, or if his actions were other than they were, would this necessarily be a change from a state of perfection to non-perfection in the latter case? God says he does not change so at least changing would be reflecting that he lied, which it is impossible for God to do..
