It's almost like anything He did or could have done would have been right by definition.
seems like simple enough of a concept, is it difficult for grasp? Similar to the idea that God will not tell a lie.
Interesting questions.
Was Jesus talking to himself on the cross? "Father, why hast thou forsaken me?"
In the story of Abraham and Isaac (Genesis 22.5), was God lying about wanting Abraham to sacrifice his son? "Hey, just kidding" sayeth the Lord.
This, or any other post that I have made or will make in the future, is strictly my own opinion and consequently of little or no value.

if one actually reads the scriptures then clearly not.

not lying at all. There is no reason to not believe that God did not tell Abraham to sacrifice his son. However, "wanting" Abraham to sacrifice his son is simply a speculation with little support from logic, reason, or evidence.
