The Logical Consistency of Systematic Theology

Are you a student of Theology? Do you admire the attributes of God in Christ? Suffice it to say, if indeed God can change his mind, then this ability within the Godhead should be incorporated within the grand scheme of logical consistency in Systematic Theology. Amazingly, most Calvinists deny that God can change his mind at all, even though this very phenomenon appears in Scripture many times.
If indeed God CANNOT change his mind, then the following are true...
Jonah is a false prophet – (after 40 days Nineveh was not destroyed)
Isaiah is a false prophet – (Hezekiah did not die)
Moses is a false prophet – (Eli’s family priesthood was not perpetual, everlasting, and forever)
Jeremiah is a false prophet – (Jeremiah was not carried away into the captivity of Babylon)
Moses is a false prophet - Ex.2:24, 3:8, 17, 12:25, 13:5, 11, (the Exodus Generation was not brought into the Promised Land to inherit it)
Nathan is a false prophet – (Solomon’s earthly throne was not an unbreakable and enduring establishment from generation to generation forever)
Seeing that all these men are TRUE Prophets, the popular interpretation of needs to be reevaluated. However, this should not be done to excuse the hoards of false prophets among "Charismatic Christianity" today! Nevertheless, my fellow Continuationists need to make their voices heard to create some push-back against the proud and haughty Cessationist Calvinists who claim the moral high-ground on the subject and rashly anathematize people while oversimplifying the issue. Furthermore, I would urge the Neo-Calvinists of today to incorporate the reality of divine repentance into their logically consistent belief system.
