Why can't God lie or sin?
God can do whatever he wants....I mean who is going to question him? If God wants to rob some lady and have sex with her in the alley in China town, then kills her....who is to say "God...you did bad!"?
No one that's who. God can lie if He wants, He can steal if He wants, murder, cheat, fornicate...no one can challenge Him. I mean look what happened the last time that happened(talking about Lucifer being thrown from Heaven incase you didn't know).
God can lie and sin, but He chooses not to so He can set a good example for us. agree/disagree?

I totally agree with last sentence. Yes God can do what he chooses but he chooses to set a good example for us.
I believe God is pure(can't stand sight of sin) and then theres the Devil ( sinful and trying to led us into temptation)

Well, first of all, God is perfect, and lying, stealing, murdering, and raiping are 4 of the things the 10 commandments say NOT to do. And God wrote them, and He said they were His law, and He's perfect, so He aint gonna disobey His own law. Although, I suppose He could break them but He is perfect, so that's something to think about.

God cannot go against his perfect nature. While God has the ability to do all of the things that you mention, He cannot do those things because then He wouldn't be who He is.
2 Timothy 2:11 The saying is trustworthy, for: If we have died with him, we will also live with him; 12 if we endure, we will also reign with him; if we deny him, he also will deny us; 13 if we are faithless, he remains faithful-- for he cannot deny himself.

God tricks people so he can send them to hell.
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12
"Therefore God sends upon them a strong delusion, to make them believe what is false, so that all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness."
God makes the Pharaoh choose not to release Mose's people so he can do terrible things to the Egyptians.
The LORD said to Moses, "When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then say to Pharaoh, 'This is what the LORD says: Israel is my firstborn son, 23 and I told you, "Let my son go, so he may worship me." But you refused to let him go; so I will kill your firstborn son.' "
Exodus 4:21; 7:3

Mercy, it's just too early in the morning (just after 7 AM here) to wrap my mind around that question. God is perfect and wouldn't want to do any of those things. Lucifer being tossed was more because he tried to make himself an equal to God.

God cannot do anything that contradicts His nature, which is sinless perfection.

People appear to have the ability to invent a god with whatever attributes they wish it to have
