1 | Why didn't tHe relent from His anger? | 2 Kin 23:26 | Searcher56 | 13375 | ||
Why didn't the Lord relent from His anger? What was it Manasseh did so bad, God did not reconsider? Why didn't He consider the reforms of Josiah (vv 1-25), like He did when Ninevah repented (Jon 3:10)? |

True, Manasseh was a very wicked King. You will also find mention of God making this statement in regards to others in the Bible such as Saul, Edom and so forth. Yet, you will also see him forgive David of all his terrible sins. The differnece is in the heart. One heart continued in rebellion and was only sorrowful for the punishment and what would be suffered. The other heart cared deeply about God's opinion and loved the punishment, knowing that God was correct and would heal and remove the evil in the heart. The difference is that one dispised the punishment and the other did not. | ||||||
3 | Why didn't tHe relent from His anger? | 2 Kin 23:26 | Reformer Joe | 13392 | ||
That doesn't answer the question of why God did not change his mind when hhis grandson Josiah implemented nationwide reforms. The fact is that God had had enough (1 Kings 21:10-15), and his will was that Judah would be judged. An important lesson for us: Do we fully understand how patient God is with us, but also how much he absolutely abhors sin with a wrathful, holy hatred? My guess is that most people do not get this at all. --Joe! |
