Are laws as old as God???

  • Still having problem with "God can't make a contradiction

    You Said that God can't make two plus two five, or He can't make a circle a square. Does it mean that mathematical rules are ,eternal, self-exsitant or necessary (vs.possible) like God Himself?
    I tend to believe that God Himself made all laws of nature and science(even rules of mathematics), and He can break them if He wants. I think it was Him Himself who decreed that two plus two must be four etc. He could do otherwise.

    God has chosen certain things to be, and those choices are eternal.

    Yes, God made the Truth, but God will never change the Truth.  God is eternal - He does not change.
