Of course you know exactly what I am talking about. God can do anything in keeping with His character. For you to question my comment is because you want to argue about a point that should have been understood. I do not see that we have to give fully explained theological answers to everything. If we did some of our posts would be pages long. I assume the posters here have a certain amount of Bible background to understand the statements made. (Except you of course.)
Just to please you here are some things God cannot do:

So, when God says "God is not mocked, WHATEVER a man sows is what he reaps" (Galatians 6:7,8) then that means God would have to become a liar to interfere with the sowing and reaping processing.... which is why He gave us the High Priestly ministry of Jesus Christ since God knew we would still sin... on purpose sometimes, at least until we grow up... after we got born again which is what 1 John 1:9 is for that some today claim was not written to Christians.
So, from the perspective that God decided His entire Kingdom would function on the seedtime and harvest principle which includes His own actions... there are some things God cannot do because He would have to be a liar to do certain things.

God seems to have a great deal of tolerance for sin, in the sense of allowing it to happen. Consider all of the things he has allowed to happen: slavery, the holocaust, land theft, murder, drug-dealing, corruption, exploitation of nature and the weak.
Yes, our nation (and the whole world) needs spiritual renewal, but that has always been the case. There was never a time when our nation was not in need of spiritual renewal.

That is because He created this world for man to live in for a season of time and gave man dominion over it.
But, that season of time is drawing to a close and judgement is at the door.

That is because God has given man free will. It is because man chooses to sin. God is NOT tolerant of sin at all. It will be dealt with at the judgement.
