It’s like a new postgraduate physics student trying to apply Newton’s Laws to quarks. While Newton’s laws provide a framework for understanding motion in everyday contexts, the behavior of quarks requires a different set of principles that are part of quantum mechanics. Newton’s laws are still valid for macroscopic objects, but do not apply to the quantum realm, where quarks operate.
The laws of reason and logic are dependent on the order God imposed on the universe. God is metaphysical. He is not subject to His creation, BUT, the fact that there IS order and understandable systems tell us that God IS understandable, to a degree. His creation reflects His self. But if you think you’ll crush Him in his own vise, you are quite mistaken. There is no epistemological dilemma you’ll spear God with
That verse you quoted doesn’t say god is a god of order. It says god is a god of peace. If he truly was a god of peace, then he would stop wars. Let’s say you’re walking on the street and see a mugging happening, the person getting mugged is not screaming for help or anything but you stop them anyway. They didn’t ask to be helped, but it kept them safe anyway. You would have violated their free will, but kept them safe and peaceful. A god of peace would violate people’s free will if it meant keeping them safe.
I suggest you look at a few different translations. The word is translated chaos confusion disorder.
Not only that but it’s absurd to say that the God of the Bible is a God of peace. In Matthew 10:34 Jesus says, “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."
The Bible itself ends with a great battle and a great celebration of victory.
This is at best a sophomoric argument.
