"there are some things that God simply doesn't do because of His nature. For example, it is "impossible for God to lie." (Hebrews 6:18)"
1 Kings 22:23 King James Version (KJV)
23 Now therefore, behold, the Lord hath put a lying spirit in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and the Lord hath spoken evil concerning thee.
Jeremiah 20:7
O LORD, thou hast deceived me, and I was deceived: thou art stronger than I, and hast prevailed: I am in derision daily, every one mocketh me.
It's impossible for God to lie. But apparently it's not impossible for him to send lying spirits to people on his behalf, so that the people can mistake the spirits for God's word. So how do you know what you feel is him telling you the truth and not a lying spirit? Any particular method? Let me guess, it's faith.
I have to admit though, your God would make an excellent lawyer. His loophole for lying is way better than your loophole for reconciling the use of the word "fear". Now he can decieve anyone we wants to without having to lie directly. Pretty damn witty. Kudos to God.
