Prove me wrong! You're the one saying God changes, I've not even indicated He has, nor have I indicated His plan has evolved, again that's your misguided assumption. Your assumptions are not proof of anything nor do they negate my statements. False are your above ^ statements.
Okee Dokee then, we'll just say that everyone after Adam received a free video tape from god telling the whole message from abraham to jesus (and joe smith if they were of the mormon bent). Therefore god did not change his level of communication with man. They all knew the rules and exactly how to enjoy a closer relationship with him.

Quote:I guess that works with anyone doesn't it? Obama didn't change from a pro-openness and freedom politician to a NSA loving secrets president because he had planned to do so all along. While arguable from his point of view, it is not arguable from the point of view of the observer, same as god.

From the point of view of man, god has undeniably changed.

.. From your point of view God may seem to have changed, if however you understood the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation you would know He has never changed...
If god materialized in my room as a red butted orangutan I might know that too, but alas that's not going to happen.(unless I accidentally ingest some LSD)

Quote:So the people of the previous generation, god chose not to tell them the "laws that would lead to a better relationship with Him", why not? How fair is it to be judges without the better guidelines of what is required?
If a teacher gave homework and told the latecomers more info on its requirements, would that be fair to the earlier students? No!

There were no Israelites before Abraham, they will be judged by what they knew at the time, that is what I believe. The same goes for those before the law was handed down, but that came after Abraham. God has not let us know all about how He will judge, and it may very well be better that way.

How could it be better that way? How could that be possible and stay true to god's nature?

NO, no, no, God didn't need to know, the omniscient God already knew. It was a sign for all other people and to the Israelites. Don't ask me why I do not know why He chose to do it that way.
How today, that's a good question that Christians need to ask themselves every day. Today God says we as Christians are to live a life that sets us apart from the world, so our belief in Christ and the Holy Spirit's guidance will help us do this, that's as long as we listen of coarse. It matters because when we live as Christians should we are a witness to the lost world and the world will see us as followers of Christ.
Couldn't you ask him why he wanted to separate his people with silly rules and rituals next time you pray? Surely he'd tell you. God has no reason for secrets does he?

Couldn't god have identified and separated his jewish people in the same way you say that modern christians should be separate from the world? Why did god change his mind about the method he wanted his followers to be identified, first by rules and rituals and then by goodness and piety?

I know many well educated Christians, from scientist and nuclear engineers to teachers and professors ect. ..

There are a lot of educated, professional people that smoke cigarettes too.
Smoking cigarettes is very stupid thing to do on many levels. Therefore people that smoke cigarettes are stupid. They may not be stupid in every conceivable way, but they are stupid.
