I believe he is benevolent and omnipotent at the same time. There was a time when Jesus himself was tempted by the devil to commit sin in the desert. He was tempted 3 times by the devil. But Jesus` will proved to be more powerful and he refrained from sin. So therefore God may be tempted and do it, but he does not since he has principles as well. Side: Yes

In the sense of making a square circle God can do no such thing; for those are the characteristics of those things. Just as God cannot make a married bachelor for it would defeat the definition. Therefore, because the innate characteristics of God are without sin, then to sin would be directly contradictory to the properties at hand. Therefore, being omnipotent, by definition, requires a lack of not being able to be not omnipotent. However, for because God has made those things real, He has displayed the capabilities of a square, etc. However, in the case of God and sin: sin is the lack of God, by definition. Therefore, the innate act of sin is the act of not being like God, which means that God cannot be unlike Himself, which is contradictory to logic. Side: No

GOD is defined as (in Christianity and other monotheistic religions) the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being. This definition implies that there is nothing that GOD cannot do. and Do you think God can be sinful in any situation? Side: No
