I’m going to do a few short posts using scripture that our God does not change when it comes to truth. If someone repents such as Nineveh did he will hold off His wrath, but that was a condition of the warning from Jonah in the first place.
However God is not like man that he is wishy-washy or changes His mind or His truth.
Numbers 23:19 – 19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?
One of the reasons I say this is because there are certain religions that will change their so called truths as time goes on. If something isn’t viewed as politically correct a modern day prophet suddenly has a revelation and it changes it all. However, does God say in His Word that it works that way?
1 Samuel 15:29 – 29 He who is the Glory of Israel does not lie or change his mind; for he is not a man, that he should change his mind.”
Pretty much another identical verse. God doesn’t change His mind on His promises. That’s one of the reasons we can trust Him. We can take Him at His Word.
If God changed things around 180 degrees and something meant the opposite of what it did before, how would you know He wasn’t going to do it again? Yet that happens today in the name of convenience for people.
Tomorrow we’ll carry on with this theme.
