The YouTube video titled “If God Knows Everything, How Did Moses Change God’s Mind?” by Frank Turek addresses the question of whether God’s emotional reactions in the Bible are genuine or predetermined.
The speaker explains that the Bible is written from an observer perspective, and when it seems like God changes His mind or reacts emotionally, it is actually portrayed that way for our understanding. In reality, God always knew the outcome, including Moses’ prayers and His response. The video uses the example of the sunrise, which is expressed from an observer’s perspective even though we know the Earth’s rotation causes it. Similarly, God’s interactions are described in ways that we can comprehend, but it does not imply that God changes His nature or emotions.
