Over 11,000 Verses that reveal God changes His Mind

‘The following 11,000 verses include changes in the
mind of God, adjustment in the actions of God because
of some action by man, and emotions expressed
by God. I have reasoned that God’s actions must be
viewed as a change if the particular action of God
is in response to men. The action was, then, something
God probably would not have done if man had
not acted in a specific way. Each consecutive action
by God following such a change would have to be
viewed as confirming the original change.

The passages listed may not appear to you to indicate
change or new decision upon your first reading
of them. Be sure, however, to check preceding
verses. A command of God which follows a new action
or new direction by God would have to be viewed
as a change. In other words, any action which follow
a change of mind would have to be a new action even
though that new action in itself does not appear to
be a change of mind.

Statements made by God in succession, especially
if contradictory in nature, attest to the idea that not
only does God change His mind but that He lives
in time. In fact it could be argued that any statement
made by God, if made at a specific point in time,
would indicate God indeed lives in time. To live in
an “eternal now” situation God would have to be doing
contrary actions at the same time, and this is
ludicrous. Furthermore, different emotions would be
impossible if God were not in time. God could not
experience anger and no anger toward the same person
at the same time. Thus each emotion fairly substantiates
that God does live in a form of succession.

Each change or adjustment evidences that God
does not know what the future free choices of man
will be; otherwise these would not be genuine adjustments,
changes, or responses. God would only be
play-acting if everything was certain to Him. Our
lives under such an arrangement would be about as
exciting to God as watching a soap opera for the
twentieth-thousand time. Nothing in the script could
change.

Following, then, is the massive evidence supporting
these theories. An asterisk * indicates that a particular
verse strongly supports the above concepts.

These passages represent about 8,339 new decisions or
changes of mind by God in His relationship to man. Either
these represent new decisions by God or He always knew what
man would do in each given circumstance. Man’s actions would
have to be certain events in God’s mind. If they are certain
events then man would not have freedom since God’s knowledge
of each event would exist prior to man’s choice and existence.
Another, alternative would be that man would have to be as eternal
as God. If God always knew man’s choices and man originated
the choices, then man would of necessity have had to exist
prior to this life and coexisted with God in order for God to foreknow
all events of this life. This conclusion is absurd since it
would make all of life one long play. Some have concluded that
God is timeless or lives outside of time. This argument is weak
since it is lacking in solid Biblical evidence and logic. Successive
moments are necessary for a thought process. Successive moments
are what make up time. Many believe this is something
you cannot understand but if so, how can one say “I understand
because I don’t understand”?

The following is a list of New Testament passages, approximately
3,307. Many of these are from the lips of Jesus.
Either He was play-acting or was originating new decisions in
response to individuals. To say that He was limited by humanity
can be objected to by the fact that all that Jesus said and did
(John chapters 14-17) was of the Father.
