you're not disagreeing with me.
and if Jonah's statement had been a conditional one, you'd be right.
however, it was not. Jonah said Nineveh would fall. Period.
I'm not calling it a contradiction. I'm not calling him a false prophet. I'm saying that applying the strict rule of all of a prophet's predictions coming to pass is not accurate.
As your bot states... "A false prophet is one who presumptuously speaks in God’s name things that God has not said, and these things do not come to pass because they were not divinely inspired."
We know that Jonah was speaking with divine inspiration. But not because 100% of his statements were accurate.
There was no conditional clause in his statement. He didn't say 'Nineveh will fall unless...'
As your bot states, sometimes a prophets statements are meant to inspire change. A prophet always says what needs to be said, and most of the time, that is the truth.
But you've been arguing that at no time can real prophet make a prediction that does not come to pass, and, based on the Bible, that is not true.
Scripture interprets itself. To understand one verse, look at the rest of scripture. Any verse given out of context can be misleading. So even though the test of a true prophet is that their word comes to pass, there is still an allowance for predictions that do not come to pass.
Careful, fren. Let your bot do all the heavy lifting, and you may eventually forget how to think..
I disagree with you about not disagreeing with you.
We will have to agree to not agree about disagreeing.
We are bork. You will be asininemilated.
So Jonah, a real prophet, made an unconditional statement that didn't come to pass, and somehow mathematics broke in a way that allows you to stay at 100%?
I understand that it was, in fact, conditional... ...but in the way he stated it, it was not. He gave no condition.
Therefore, not 100%. according to the Bible.
No matter what you do X + \frac{Y}{Z} = 42
