Romans 3:6

Romans 3:6
Time and again I've come across the perspective that we somehow have the right to judge God or to choose which god we will serve. But if God is small enough to be judged by us humans, then He is smaller than us and not worth our service and adoration. If there are multiple gods for us to choose the one we like the best, then we will inevitably come across situations where the god we've chosen is weaker than some other god and unable to help us no matter how devoted we may be.
The reality (whether we like it or not) is that there is only one God and He judges us. For us to try to judge Him would be like some object we've made turning around and telling us how to spend our time, how to use that object, and which friendships we are allowed to maintain (see Rom 9:21). Whether we like it or not is irrelevant. God created us and everything in the universe; He is REALLY big and powerful; and He is the one who judges us.
