God Changes HIS Mind?
You might be surprised!
I keep hearing about how God would react to the different circumstances of today. He would surely “Change His Mind” about some of the paths our modern society is going down. He would surely not condemn someone if they are “good Christians” but do not follow the Bible. We must remember that the BIBLE is God’s Holy Word. The, “Lord changed His mind”, argument some have used is the story of Jonah and the big fish. Jonah 3:10 (NIV) “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.” I do not believe that God changed his mind, He had said they would be destroyed “if they did not change their wicked ways.” They changed and He followed through by letting them live. Many people use this and other references to justify their style of living. One of the most common statements I hear is “surely He would consider the circumstances of today’s modern world and change His mind.”
Our all knowing and all seeing God has plans for us, and I am sure He knows of the modern world in which we live. He most certainly would not approve of many of the things we are doing and teaching.
The truth is we are trying to say (hoping) that He would see things our way. It is not God changing His mind. It is man changing His mind and I don’t believe that will work.
Are you ready to take a chance and disobey the Biblical teachings and hope He Changes His Mind?
