Listen "Does God Ever Change His Mind?"
Episode Synopsis
Does God ‘change’ His mind?
It seems unlikely. Why would a perfect, all knowing God change His mind? On the other hand, there are several verses that suggest He does. In Jonah 3, the Bible said God ‘relented’ from destroying Nineveh. In 1 Samuel, God himself said He ‘regretted’ making Saul king. If God doesn’t change His mind, then why do these verses make it sound like He does? Is there an answer?
Questions That We’ll Address:
1) Is God’s nature subject to change, growth, or development?
2) Can God ever ‘regret’ His own choices, or ‘repent’ from His prior actions?
3) What is ‘anthropomorphic’ language? How does that term apply to this topic?
