God cannot tell a lie.
“God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? Or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?” Numbers 23:19 KJV
Comparisons can prove equality and inequality as well as attest to the similarities and differences between the superior and the inferior. “God is not a man, that he should lie,” is a subtle comparison upholding one fundamental truth; that the infinite God and Creator should never be equated to anyone, because He is holy.
