Do you think it would be possible - assuming you believe in GOD, - for him to create a puzzle so difficult that he couldn't solve it no matter how hard he tried?
[I do realize that by using the words "himself", and "he" is imposing gender limitations on the almighty, unfortunately I've been socialized in misogynistic, male dominant American society ]

This problem is logically equivalent to Godel's incompleteness theorem, or to the Halting Problem first identified by Alan Turing. It is also equivalent to Russell's Paradox. The question is unsolveable as phrased, because the assumptions are erroneous.
The fundamental error here is in assuming a set that contains all other sets, incuding itself and the null set. Godel's conclusion was that no system could be both complete and self-referential.
I may have the details a little off, but this is the essence of it.

No..for thru God,everything impossible was made possible. He is just far too awesome,everything was and is created by Him so nothing is unsolvable for Him. He allow situation to happens for us to grow..don't you guys realise that?? If He keep on spoon feeding us,we can never be independent and would not know that it is throught His strength,wisdom and Him that we can sail throught life in a much smoother and exciting journey.

Yes, and in fact it already happened and it all started with- "Let there be light."
We have been alive for many thousands (if not millions) of years, and God has yet to "solve" this puzzle.

No I don't think that there is a puzzle that he can't put together. Since he help make all the puzzle out there.

This is more philisophical than religious...It is impossible for anyone to create a question, puzzle, or riddle in which they do not inherantly know the answer

No, because god is the ultimate. So there for god can not create any thing that is better than the ultimate. And it also says that god is the absolute person. And nothing or anything is better or "harder" than him.

no - He is the all knowing. we are the ones who don't know how to solve the puzzle, He is the creator of the puzzle Himself.
