Bismillah:
Quote:That is correct. God cannot sin of course and do anything unholy or tolerate anything unholy....
exactly this is what we are trying to say CC, God ALSO cannot become a man for the following reasons:
- <b>God is immortal; human beings are mortal</b>. You cannot have a <i>‘God-man’ </i> i.e. an immortal and mortal being <b>at the same time</b>. It is meaningless.
- <b>God does not have a beginning</b>. Human beings have a beginning (Jesus was BORN of a virgin on spicific day). <b>You cannot have a person, who does not have a beginning and yet at the same time having a beginning.</b>
- God has no end, human beings have an end.
- God is Divine, human beings are not. you cannot have God who is a Divine and human who are not at the same time. if God decided to become a man, that means he decided to become <b>less divine.</b>
- So an entity cannot be both: <b>God and a human </b> <b>at the same time</b>. For if God retains His divine powers then He is not a human because <b>humans do not have divine powers</b>. And if God were to become a mortal, which is a human quality, then <b>he is no longer God, for God is immortal. </b>
- Later on that same human being cannot become God, because it is not possible for human beings to become God. If it was so, you and I too would become God and attain divine powers.
That is the reason why <b>God will never take or rather cannot take human form</b>. The Qur’an speaks against all forms of <b>anthropomorphism. Anthropomorphism is illogical.</b>
