Dan...
Your so confuse that you don't see your own confusion.
So you think GOD knows the future but are constantly being surprised by it?
Impressive... That is not GOD, that is fortune-teller flawed and prone to making mistakes all the time ...
You preach a failed GOD since the beginning...
HE created all good, but the devil ruined all...
HE let mankind grow but the evil made him kill everyone with Noah...
He sent Moses and killed all in the desert and by the law all became cursed...
He sent prophets and they were killed...
He sent Jesus, but HIS people killed him...
This is a god that fails since the beginning and it's constantly rejected by it's own creation... this is not a god, this is a frustrated man that can't get his children to love him and choose him... this god you preach lost all the battles to the devil and just by looking to this present time it's obvious who's winning again...
...is that the god you trust? Trusting in that god is a sin... however I know you don't because you know HE can fail right? ... you rely on your own fidelity and think that GOD does it too...
Who grants me that Satan won't win in the end? Maybe he'll surprise GOD again!!!
Your lack of understanding is impressive... you have no idea of who GOD is.
But in all this and the "if's" Jeremiah came to understand:
O LORD, I know that the way of man {is} not in himself: {it is} not in man that walketh to direct his steps.
Jeremiah 10:23
You did not...
Open your eyes Dan, in Jeremiah what didn't come to GOD's mind was to ask that from them... HE never asked that from them ... how do you have the courage to say GOD did not know this would happen? How can you limit GOD so much?
The GOD presented in Genesis was a parable just like the GOD in the law... or do you think that when HE asked Adam if he had the forbidden fruit HE did not already knew he did?
The regret in Genesis and other places is a parable just like a bush of fire, a rock that delivers water, a column of fire, etc... The GOD presented before Christ is a GOD that judges by works, is a GOD that loves and hates according to the fulfillment of the law... and it came to show that without grace all man is condemned.
But I have no hope that you understand this... you limit GOD in an impressive way.
So GOD did not now that Abraham feared him before also??? The GOD that knows the hearts did not know Abraham's heart?
About Saul... no, God did not fail with Saul or HIS people...
I will be thy king: where {is any other} that may save thee in all thy cities? and thy judges of whom thou saidst, Give me a king and princes (when they asked for a king)? {I will...: rather, Where is thy king?}
I gave thee a king in mine anger, and took {him} away in my wrath.
Oséias 13:10-11
Saul was meant to do what he did...
ALL IN THE BIBLE SAYS GOD KNOWS ALL... but that man has free will there's none.
For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
So then {it is} not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.
Romans 9:15-16
And your rejection to GOD's sovereignty is not a good sign and will not be forgiven when HE comes.
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay {them} before me.
Luke 19:27
I've showed you more than enough for you to recognize your error and for you to turn to GOD instead of yourself....
Repent Dan.
