quote:
1) God is hostage to is own holiness. Sin cannot be swept under the carpet anymore than God can create a immovable-by-him object. God being hostage in the ways he is, is a good thing - it means there is such a thing as absolutes.
Actually God can create such an object in a simple 2-step process. First He'd create an object - megalith or feather - it doesn't matter. Second, He'd promise not to move it.
Good work, iano. I can't think of much to add at this time. Jesus died and rose from the grave in order to make salvation possible.
