However, both of you are trying to use man's logic against God's Word. The only time we are told to use logic theologically is in Isaiah 1 where we are told to come reason with the Lord so that we can realize the state of our sinfulness.
Logic is a gift from God, and there is no difference between “man’s logic” and God’s logic. And Jesus, Himself, implored those who were seeking to kill Him to think logically and thus realize that he was indeed the Son of God.
John 10:22. At that time the Feast of the Dedication took place at Jerusalem;
23. it was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple in the portico of Solomon.
24. The Jews then gathered around Him, and were saying to Him, "How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly."
25. Jesus answered them, "I told you, and you do not believe; the works that I do in My Father's name, these testify of Me.
26. "But you do not believe because you are not of My sheep.
27. "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;
28. and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.
29. "My Father, who has given
them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch
them out of the Father's hand.
30. "I and the Father are one."
31. The Jews picked up stones again to stone Him.
32. Jesus answered them, "I showed you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?"
33. The Jews answered Him, "For a good work we do not stone You, but for blasphemy; and because You, being a man, make Yourself out
to be God."
34. Jesus answered them, "Has it not been written in your Law, 'I SAID, YOU ARE GODS'?
35. "If he called them gods, to whom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),
36. do you say of Him, whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?
37. "If I do not do the works of My Father, do not believe Me;
38. but if I do them, though you do not believe Me, believe the works, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father."
