Does and should God break His commandments? - Page 2 - Religion, God, and Theology

There doesn't have to be. Aside from the general principle that a sovereign is by definition above the law, nowhere is any law of God presented as other than something for man to follow.

A+.

If people ever stop making category errors on here the whole forum will dry up....lol.

OP try asking yourself "Who is going to enforce a commandment on God?".

If your answer is nobody then that should make it clear to you that God is in a class by himself.

Show any documentation for your foolish assumption for man or God.

Concerto - I agree with this, but I do think that there are some distinctions. For instance, God created certain kinds of laws that he cannot break, being a perfectly just/good being. To break them would be to change the very fabric of morality. I think Muslims believe God can perform good or evil as He wills, but that trait is not prescribed to the Christian God.

The 7th You shall not commit adultery.
God is said to use Mary, another man’s woman, to reproduce what some would call a bastard son as it was born out of wedlock.

since it was "out of wedlock" as you point out...she wasn't "another man's woman." so it wouldn't be adultery.

there are similar problems with most of your examples. please stop posting, you make atheists look ******ed.

I do admit that I am closer to them than silly theists.

As to your point. Is it a sin to father a bastard son and then just leave it?

Ok. It is not a sin or immoral to not take responsibilities for our offsprings.

The women will like your philosophy. Not.
