My Bible sparked this logic, and please don't point out any thought up fallicies of the Bible, that is an old debate and I'm quite secure in knowing my Bible is the true inspired Word of God.


John 14:8-10
Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and we will be satisfied."
Jesus replied, "Philip, don't you even yet know who I am, even after all the time I have been with you? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking to see him? Don't you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I say are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me.


No where does anyone say that God changed. For if God changed, it would make it easy, he wouldn't have had to send Jesus to atone for our sins. He would just have gone back on His Word. But Since God is Perfect so is His Word and therefore cannot go back on anything He commands or teaches.
