This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Does God make mistakes?

01:18

Well, this is a question that many will ask because of a problem they have.

01:25

They basically think that God is like us. Let's first think about what a mistake is.

01:31

First off, mistakes are a result of the fall. A mistake is when you do something that is wrong.

01:39

So what you're really asking is, can God do anything that's wrong? But once you say something is wrong, you then have to say, well, what's the standard?

01:47

You have to go back to a standard to make right and wrong. So the question is, if someone's making a mistake, it means that they've done something wrong, which means there must be a standard in which to compare.

02:01

What is the standard that we have to compare? Well, the only standard that's absolute, universal, and immaterial would be

02:08

God Himself. God Himself is the standard. And therefore, if we're going to compare everything when we say we make a mistake, we're doing something wrong.

02:19

But when we talk right and wrong, we need a standard. And if that standard is God, well, I think you see where this answer is going.

02:25

No, God cannot make a mistake. Now, there's things where people say, but I think that God should do things this way.

02:34

What they're doing when they do that is they've set themselves up as the standard, and they want to replace

02:39

God and put themselves in that place. Well, we have to always go back to say, what is the issue?

02:45

And you want to ask, what is the standard? If the standard is God, then He can't be wrong and can't make a mistake.
