Bible Note: Joe, Thank you for your input! As I typed in my response to daffy, I look forward to seeing some of the postings on this, not seeking opportunity to challenge anyone or begin a debate, but, it has been a question in mind for many years. I looked in different translations because, as I typed in my answer (to daffy): "when I read Romans 9 I see that God has pre-destinated and pre-ordained everything.", I have always wondered why it is written "God changed His mind". I have always been of the mind that "I will not question the Lord my God", and still am, so I have never asked about this until now. Here are the results from the translations I looked into: NIV - "relented" NASB - "changed His mind" AMPLIFIED - "turned from" NEW LIVING TRANSLATION - "withdrew from His threat" KJV - "repented" NEW KJV - "relented from" 21st CENTURY KJV - "repented" ASV - "repented" YOUNGS LITERAL TRANS - "repenteth" DARBY - "repented" Also you write "so it is best to think of "God changing his mind" as an apparent change in time and space....." I have two things to say in response; First of all, and please, please, please do not take offense, when someone says, or types in this case, to me when discussing the word of God "so it is best to think...". I always question, Is this man's wisdom? Is there scripture to back what is being said/written? Second, I do not understand this part "...as an apparent change in time and space.....". Thanks again Joe for your post. I have read some of your posts since I've been a part of this forum, and, have learned from them. In Jesus, Cyclist I will bless the Lord at all times! His praise shall continually be in my mouth! |
