Bible Question (short): God repented |
Question (full): Joe, Granting that all of your statement is right. Because your believed is different from mine, my believed is that God has a particular plan but not all things what happened to human beings it is because God designed it. What I mean Joe, is If I am going to eat steak in my breakfast and not beacon, because I want beacon and not because God who plan that I am going to eat steak and not beacon. This is my stand. If I am not mistaken (correct me if I am wrong) Your believed is from the beginning everything that will happened to anyone because it was God's plan. Meaning if in this year 2001 when someone become a prostitute becuase it the plan of God to them. And there is no single happened to anyone outside God's plan. You quoted verses that supported your stand and I saw it. But I think it is goes to particular plan of God, for example the Birth of Jesus the same with when he was crucified. I believed on this. What I am trying to explain here is not all things was dictated by God for example for being Bad of too many in the time of Noah that's is why God take action for that consequences. But I think it is not part of His plan that too many will disobey Him but because of the devil that trying to make people as evil as he was. You stated in your post that Flood in the time of Noah is a part of God's Plan right: My problem here Joe is before the Lord God destroy the the man through that flood he repenteth. My question is why God repenteth? Do you think it is in the Nature of God that when his plan succeed is going to repent? Because God succeeded in His plan that too many people disobey, that is why He can bring flood to them? maybe you can say I post this question in my own and it is because of my wrong interpretation? Ge 6:7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. Ge 6:6 And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. It was mentioned "And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart." Why if is really a a God's plan to destroy the people why it grieved His heart? Again my question is it is really the nature of God that if His plan succeed it is Grieved His heart? If really designed this things to happen He should be very happy. Ge 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth. In Ge 6:13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; It was mentioned the end of all flesh is come before me; Why God not mention that "my plan is already succeded to bring flood to people". In Ge 6:12 And God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth. If this God's plan why it seems that God didn’t like it that is why He punish them. It is His plan of course God will happy because His plan succeeded. I posted like that Joe, because as all I know God's is Love. Sa 15:10 Then came the word of the LORD unto Samuel, saying, 1Sa 15:11 It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king: for he is turned back from following me, and hath not performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and he cried unto the LORD all night. If it really plan of God that Saul is turned back from following God, why God repented? He succeeded his plan here also. He should be very happy. 1Sa 15:35 And Samuel came no more to see Saul until the day of his death: nevertheless Samuel mourned for Saul: and the LORD repented that he had made Saul king over Israel. If part of God’s plan that Saul is turned back from following God, He should not repented. That is my point Joe, in my own understanding I could not accepted that the Lord God will repented every time that his plan succeeded. In addition Joe, If really a part of plan of God that in the time of Noah too many people will disobey God what is the purpose of this verses. 1Ti 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. God want all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. Johnny |
