This doctrine is incorrect, as the following scriptures will show. The Lord can and does change His mind on things, depending on what happens.
At the very first, He became sorry that He created us.
Genesis 6:6 KJV
And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the
earth, and it grieved him at his heart.
He changed His mind about Saul's being king.
1 Samuel 15:11 KJV
It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king:
for he is turned back from following me, and hath not
performed my commandments. And it grieved Samuel; and
he cried unto the LORD all night.
And there are many other examples where He changed His mind or considered
changing His mind, based on things that happened.
Jonah 3:9-19 KJV
Who can tell if God will turn and repent, and turn
away from his fierce anger, that we perish not?
And God saw their works, that they turned from their
evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had
said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.
Exodus 32:14 KJV
And the LORD repented of the evil which he thought to
do unto his people.
Hosea 11:8 KJV
How shall I give thee up, Ephraim? how shall I
deliver thee, Israel? how shall I make thee as Admah?
how shall I set thee as Zeboim? mine heart is turned
within me, my repentings are kindled together.
Jonah 4:2 KJV
And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O
LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my
country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I
knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful, slow
to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee
of the evil.
Jeremiah 26:3 KJV
If so be they will hearken, and turn every man from
his evil way, that I may repent me of the evil, which
I purpose to do unto them because of the evil of
their doings.
Amos 7:3 KJV
The LORD repented for this: It shall not be, saith
the LORD.
Amos 7:6 KJV
The LORD repented for this: This also shall not be,
saith the Lord GOD.
Jeremiah 18:8-10 KJV
If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn
from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I
thought to do unto them.
And at what instant I shall speak concerning a
nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to
plant it;
If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice,
then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I
would benefit them.
Zechariah 8:14-15 KJV
For thus saith the LORD of hosts; As I thought to
punish you, when your fathers provoked me to wrath,
saith the LORD of hosts, and I repented not:
So again have I thought in these days to do well unto
Jerusalem and to the house of Judah: fear ye not.
2 Samuel 24:15-16 KJV
So the LORD sent a pestilence upon Israel from the
morning even to the time appointed: and there died of
the people from Dan even to Beersheba seventy
thousand men.
And when the angel stretched out his hand upon
Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the
evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the
people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the
angel of the LORD was by the threshingplace of
Araunah the Jebusite.
Jeremiah 42:10 KJV
If ye will still abide in this land, then will I
build you, and not pull you down, and I will plant
you, and not pluck you up: for I repent me of the
evil that I have done unto you.
And of course, sometimes He does *not repent . . .
Jeremiah 4:28 KJV
For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above
be black; because I have spoken it, I have purposed
it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back
from it.
Jeremiah 15:6 KJV
Thou hast forsaken me, saith the LORD, thou art gone
backward: therefore will I stretch out my hand
against thee, and destroy thee; I am weary with
repenting.
May the Lord bless this presentation of His holy Word.
