I'm new here and aware of the bible discussion forum. I didn't want to post anything there without making sure. Some forums don't allow adult topics in bible discussion subforums, or they have separate subforums.

I don't see any forums for questions, so sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but are there any subforums where bible related adult topics are allowed? If so what is the appropriate subforum to post in?

Yes his character never changes in promise and morality, but he does change his mind. As for 1 Samuel 15, it is the same message as in Numbers. God is not a man that he should change his mind, notice that it also says he should not lie. God doesn't act outside his morality. Man is right in his...

Of course he does. That's a rather silly reason for thinking he can't change his mind. The Bible simply doesn't say he can't. In fact it says he can. And if you would like me to refer to you where such can be found: God changed his mind - Jonah 3:10

No. It can't be anymore plain. He said he would destroy Nineveh. Nineveh turned. God changed his mind and didn't. If he didn't change his mind he would have destroyed Nineveh regardless. There's absolutely nothing scriptural about God not being able to change his mind. You're trying too hard...

So then it's apparent that it's anthropomorphic when you want it to be.

So by your logic "the Bible says God created all things, but thats anthropomorphic language, he didn't really create all things". God changed his mind - Jonah 3:10

It's a very strong argument, because it can't get anymore plain. And a very simple one in response to such a robotic response, which is the actual weak response, that as well makes God look weak in that your logic attempts to strip God of his free will. And in that communication he repents -...

Too bad the Bible doesn't say that. You might as well say that about everything else God does.

That is beyond unrelated. The text is very plain about him changing his mind in regards to the judgment he said he would bring. "And God repented" - Jonah 3:10 KJV Other versions translate it as "God changed his mind" and "God reconsidered" Sir Lancelot C. L. Brenton english translation of...

If God doesn't change his mind, then completely remove the verses that say he does. Saying that "he can't because he's all knowing" is very weak attempt to get around it, and even further the attempt rips God of his free will to make choices. God changing his mind simply means he made a...

Repent Hebrew and Greek Except ye repent: Chapter 11 - Does God Ever Repent

Of course, but that doesn't mean he doesn't change his mind. He did so in Jonah 3:10. He changed his mind (repented) about what he would do to Nineveh because "he sas Nineveh's works that they turned from their evil way". There's no reason to assume changing your mind means you learn something...

And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not. Jonah 3:10 KJV Jonah 3:10 KJV shows that >turning from sin is works (eph 2:8-9, Romans 3:28, 4:6, Titus 3:5) >God repents As for...

It's very salty

All good. No worries. Forgive me if I could have made my point clearer.

How have I condemned anyone? I didn't throw those verses out. Someone else did slandering me. I simply responded with the referenced verses. I love how people always accuse someone of condemnation once context is brought to the table.

23Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.24Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a...

Repentance means to change your mind. Turning from sin doesn't save, Jonah 3:10 clearly calls it works. Jonah 3:10 also says God repents. God doesn't sin. Repentance is turning from unbelief to belief. http://www.jesusisprecious.org/articles/acts_20-21.htm
