Re: Impossible for God to lie.

The biblical text clearly states that it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore anything else written in the holy scriptures never refutes this statement in anyway.
Unless the statement that it is impossible for God to lie was, itself, a lie. You can't argue that it couldn't have been a lie because you already agree that other contradictory statements in the Bible wouldn't refute that statement; in other words, they would be lies.
So the question becomes that considering you already admit the Bible contains false statements one way or another, how would you know that the false statements are the ones claiming that God can lie rather than the ones claiming that he cannot?
