Is god bound by logic?

Ah, Lord God! Behold, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you.
—Jeremiah 32:17

That means any task can be done, which would includes setting himself an impossible task. Obviously, that breaks logic. So, he couldn't create a stone so large he couldn't lift it, as a physical example. Could he make a 4-sided triangle. Could end his existence, or make 5 equals of himself.

More fundamentally, he cannot choose to exist and not exist at the same time. That breaks logic, hence ^.

he also can choose to forget things permanently:

I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins.
—Isaiah 43:25

for a deity advertised as constantly consistent and unchanging, that's a logical contradiction right there.

Please bring less childish arguments to the table, we've been through all those so many times it hurts to read them.
By the way welcome to the forum, it's nice to meet you.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
