How can he not?
Doesnāt mix with
If you look closer this time you would see that it was you who has put limitations on God in the first place, not me.
Heās All Powerful and All Knowing, he always gets exactly what he wants every time
If you then look even closer again a second time, you might see that God doesnāt need to contradict himself either - that was just you contradicting yourself all along, inshaAllah
Iād like to see where that appears in the Bible?
But Jonah 3:10 clearly shows where God clearly changed His mind. That drives the Calvinists absolutely bonkers.

Yes this is why I donāt believe in the bible as uncorrupted. How can God be defeated by Rabbis? This makes a mockery of Monotheism in my opinion.
That was not a defeat. That was VICTORY!
1 Cor 15:55, āO death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?ā
1 Cor 15:57, āBut thanks to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.ā
Salman al Farsi was a fire worshipper then he became a Christian and finally he accepted Islam. He constantly searched for a pure Monotheism, was enslaved, didnāt care about anything but worshiping one God alone.
Once you accept Monotheism and the theological and philosophical implications of it, you can never go back to anything that associates partners with God without dissonance. If God can be wrong he canāt be God. If God can be caught in a contradiction he canāt be God.
By saying he is not bound by logic or science?
Donāt tell God what He can or cannot be.

I agree God is bound by logic, but science is different.
sciĀ·ence
noun
1. 1.
the systematic study of the structure and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation, experimentation, and testing of theories against evidence obtained.
God cannot be bound by a study. We are trying to figure out how things work that God created.
Bound by whose logic? Human logic?
How can god be bound if heās all powerful?

Letās assume I know everything. If I do something illogical, I would say that I made a mistake.
God is all knowing, and thus would not make a mistake. Thus God can be said to be āboundā by logic.
I am open for you giving me an example of how God could be illogical.
Whose logic is god bound by?
I suppose I am a logic purest. And probably more logic minded than any one you know. I just donāt believe anyone owns logic.
So logic exists outside of god?
I would believe that nothing is outside of GOD

Do you believe god is bound by logic? Can he do things humans would find illogical?
Its impossible for man but with GOD nothing is impossible
It was also explained to me once and i am paraphrasing
in order for GOD to be the creator and all knowingā¦he has to be outside of TIME, SPACE and MATTER
No, by contradicting yourself, by misapplying logic and limits
Not failed, instead All Powerful
Not experiment, instead All Knowing
Shirk not necessary, He doesnāt need a son
