Quote:Bismillah:
in the Bible.
Exodus 32:14
And the Lord repented of the evil which he thought to do unto his people.
<b>My translation NKJ says "relented."</b>
1 Samuel 15:35
The Lord repented that he had made Saul king over Israel.
<b>regretted</b>
2 Samuel 24:16
The Lord repented of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, it is enough: stay now thine hand.
<b>And when the Angel stretched out His hand over Jerusalem to destroy it, the Lord relented from the destruction, and said to the angel who was destoying the people, "It is enough; now restrain your hand."</b>
Jeremaih 18:8
I [God] will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
and there are many other verses.
<b>if that nation against whom I have spoken turns from its evil, I will relent of the disaster that I thought to bring upon in</b>

God hears the supplications of His people. This is hardly repenting.
Besides isn't God of the OT the same God you worship?
