Will God change to keep up with today's society? (Jesus Christ, Earth)

[SoulTYPE]

The times and conditions have changed over the last 2 decades. We are experiencing more wars, poverty, natural disasters, and other things similar. Also we are being taken over by the technology age. Computers will soon run the world.

Will God "change" His ways to cope with the difficulty of the changing times? Will God be forgotten or changed by technology? Will His "ways" differ from many years ago to match the condition of current times?

Will He cease the tsunamis or other disasters from occuring? I know He is supposed to come to this world, but it may be too late soon..

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Mal 3:6 "For I the LORD do not change; therefore you, O sons of Jacob, are not consumed.

Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever.

When he returns, there will be 1000 years of Peace, no crisis, earthquake, famine, just paradise.

God will be drug kicking and screaming into this new age as he has been all the previous ages.

It won`t be pretty but thats how it will happen.

Great thread title Soultype.

Actually I think GOD is anticipating for us to catch up.

[Hope]

With everything that's constantly changing in this world and in this universe, as a Christian, what's most comforting to me is to know that the God I believe in never changes. He is beyond us in every way, ahead of us in every way---He has no need to change in order 'to keep up with us.' Carrderro put it perfectly. It's us that need to do the 'catching up'!

For me, having this constant One to turn to, is the most reassuring thing in this often chaotic modern world. He an unchanging, immoveable Rock. He never gets old, He never gets 'out-of-date'. He is timeless. And nothing in this world, I truly believe, will ever make Him obsolete.

Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever.

Fair enough. But as the Bible has lost a little translation over the ages..and the fact that God has said that many years ago may somewhat be altered.

God’s very name, Jehovah, means "He Causes to Become." This implies that Jehovah causes himself to become the Fulfiller of all his promises. When Moses asked God his name, Jehovah elaborated on its meaning in this way: "I shall prove to be what I shall prove to be." (Exodus 3:14) Rotherham’s translation puts it this way: "I Will Become whatsoever I please.

So Jehovah chooses to become, or proves to be, whatever is needed to fulfill his righteous purposes and promises.

Does this mean, then, that God’s personality or standards change? No. Regarding God, James 1:17 says: "With him there is not a variation of the turning of the shadow." How could God meet the challenge of varying circumstances while remaining unchanging himself?

The example of caring parents who shift roles for the sake of their children illustrates how this is possible. In the course of a single day, a parent may be a cook, a housekeeper, an electrician, a nurse, a friend, a counselor, a teacher, a disciplinarian, and much more. The parent does not change personality when assuming these roles; he or she simply adapts to needs as they arise. The same is true of Jehovah but on a far grander scale. There is no limit to what he can cause himself to become in order to fulfill his purpose

Jehovah’s personality and cardinal qualities—love, wisdom, justice, and power—have not changed. He told the people of Israel: "I am Jehovah; I have not changed." (Malachi 3:6) This was some 3,500 years after God’s creation of mankind. True to that divine statement, a close examination of the Bible as a whole reveals a God who is unchanging in his standards and qualities. There has been no mellowing of Jehovah God’s personality during the centuries, since no such mellowing was needed.

God’s firmness for righteousness, as revealed throughout the Bible, is no less nor his love any greater than it was at the beginning of his dealings with humans in Eden. The differences in his personality seemingly demonstrated in various parts of the Bible are in reality different aspects of the same unchanging personality. These result from the differing circumstances and persons dealt with, which called for different attitudes or relationships.

the Scriptures show clearly that God’s personality has not changed over the centuries and will not change in the future. Jehovah is the supreme embodiment of constancy and consistency. At all times he is dependable and trustworthy. We can always rely on him.

G-d will change in as much as our interpretations of His will are going to change. I think our views of Him may change as we continue to evolve and understand more of the world around us and in that way He will "change".
