Why is God unbeatable?
score:1
Accepted answer
And what we have said is even more clear if another priest like Melchizedek appears, one who has become a priest not on the basis of a regulation as to his ancestry but on the basis of the power of an indestructible life. (Hebrews 7:15-16)
God is the uncaused cause. Your question has no answer. God is indestructible, unchangeable, righteous and loving. That is what He is. There is no "why" that can be answered about the matter. God exists as He is, and that existence is by nature something that cannot be overcome. If God is perfect love, then any who oppose him are not love, hence must be vanquished that the objects of God's love may be saved from their evil.
One may object that it appears that God does lose and often. This tied up in God's timing and patience. God permits temporary setbacks as part of His plan, but promises that when that plan comes to its fruition, all adversaries will be defeated, including Satan, death, Hades and Leviathan. Because of this, God's unbeatable nature, like all His attributes, must be accepted on faith.
