Logical Solution | Comment 86 of 110 |
God created EVERYTHING. That includes logic. Thus, he is not subject to that which he created save for His own will. Since such an action serves no purpose in the big scheme of things, God will not.

God is also not subject to time, having created time. Since God doesn't change, this includes the changing of His will, which at the moment does not include worthless display.

Thus, in a sense it is possible to say He cannot violate his own will.

Solution: No.
