God repenting

Hey Bro. John:

I have a question regarding what you wrote in the blog “The Law was Prophetic”  It came to my mind as I was reading this:

“God has never had to go back and correct anything He has ever said or done!”

Would God repenting for wanting to destroy His “stiffnecked” people (and speaking this to Moses) be considered “correcting anything He has ever said?”

Exodus 32:14: “And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.”

Thanks!

Sandy

The key, Sandy, is that God didn’t have to to that.   He had not made a mistake and then was trying to correct it; He was showing mercy because he is good.
