“Thou Art a God of Truth, and Canst Not Lie”
It is not just that God will not lie; he cannot. It is contrary to his divine nature. Nor can he be anything less than absolutely and infinitely knowledgeable, just, merciful, and kind. For the people of God to believe anything else is to place themselves in a precarious position in regard to their being able to exercise faith in God unto life and salvation (see Lectures on Faith 4)
