*The $5 Paradox: Can God Change His Mind?* "A five-dollar (US) reward to the first person, who can solve this Dilemma: Critics of Christianity often point to 1 Samuel 15:29 (_"He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind; for he is not a human being, that he should change his mind."_) and Numbers 23:19 (_"God is not a human being, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?"_), which explicitly declare that God is not a human being and He does not change His mind (relent/repent). They argue that God's perfect knowledge means His plans are entirely unchanging. However, in Exodus 32:14 (after the Golden Calf incident) and Jonah 3:10 (after Nineveh repents), the Bible explicitly states that God did change His mind (or relented) from the disaster He said He would bring. _"Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened."-Exodus 32:14_ _"When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened."-Jonah 3:10_ Your Question: 1. How do you defend this apparent contradiction? 2. Explain the theological concept that bridges this gap and show why God 'changing His mind' doesn't violate His unchanging nature." *****(Money can be sent through PayPal, Direct banking in Jamaica, Wise Money Transfer recipients----if they're other ways to send $ let me know & hopefully I can do so). ****One more thing....it's open ONLY to my followers.
