No — God never changed throughout the Bible; only human circumstances and responsibilities changed.
Les Feldick teaches that God is immutable, the same yesterday, today, and forever. The changes recorded in Scripture are changes in administration and human experience, not changes in God's character or His attitude toward sin. As Les puts it, God didn't change; Adam and Eve did.
Hebrews 13:8 — The Bible's clearest statement that Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever, quoted by Les in the evidence.
Hebrews 13:8 declares, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever." This is the foundational biblical answer to the question: God does not change. Throughout Scripture, God deals with people in different situations — from Eden to the Flood, to Abraham, to Israel under the law — but His own character and standards remain constant.
Les Feldick is emphatic: "God has not changed." He teaches that God is immutable — "He changeth not. He is always the same." The God of the Old Testament and the God of the Mosaic law is the same God believers deal with today. While dispensations changed — Adam in the garden, the post-Fall world, Noah after the Flood, Abraham, and then the law — God Himself never changed. People changed, economies changed, and societies changed, but God did not.
Les explains that what changed were human circumstances and responsibilities, not God. Adam and Eve had one command in the garden; after the Fall they lived under the curse. After the Flood, Noah and his family received new instructions, such as being allowed to eat meat. Later, God promised Abraham a nation. Every time, Les asks, "Had God changed? No!" The same God was working through different administrations.
Les stresses that believers are not under the Mosaic law but under grace. Yet that does not mean God has changed. The God of the Old Testament and the God of the law is the same God we deal with today. The difference is that God now deals with believers on resurrection ground. Still, the things God hated in Genesis, He still hates today.
No. Les responds to those who say we are living in different times than Bible times by saying people change, economies change, and society changes, but there is one who never changes: God. God hates the same things today that He hated back in Israel's history.
In Genesis 22, God tested Abraham by asking him to offer Isaac. The angel of the Lord stopped Abraham and said, "Now I know that thou fearest God." Les draws the same principle into the life of a believer: God brings times of testing and tribulation to test our mettle. God's method of testing faith is consistent yesterday and today.
God Tests Faith Then and Now
Les uses Abraham's offering of Isaac to show that God's testing of faith — proving a believer's love — is the same today as it was in Genesis.
God Is Immutable
Les says God has not changed His attitude toward sin from the Old Testament to today; He is immutable and changeth not.
God of the Law Is Same God Today
Even though believers are not under law, the God of the Mosaic law is the same God believers deal with today; He has not changed and still hates what He hated back in Genesis.
Different Circumstances, Same God
Les clarifies that understanding who a passage addresses does not mean God changed; the God of Israel is the same God today, but believers are now on resurrection ground.
Administrations Change, God Does Not
After the Flood, at Babel, and with Abraham, God dealt under different administrations, but Les asks 'Had God changed? No!'
People Changed, Not God
Adam and Eve's exit from Eden changed everything for them, but God did not change; Adam and Eve did.
God Does Not Change with Culture
Though people, economies, and societies change, God never changes and hates the same things today as in Israel's history.
God's Sovereignty and Immutability
Les teaches that God is sovereign and immutable — Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
This verse directly states the unchangeableness of Christ, which Les quotes when describing God's immutability.
Genesis 22:12: And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me.
This verse shows God testing Abraham's faith, a consistent pattern of God's dealings with believers that Les applies today.
Yes. Les Feldick teaches that God is immutable — "He changeth not." Hebrews 13:8 says Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. God never changes in the past, today, or in eternity future.
Yes. Les says the things God hated back in Genesis and in Israel's history are still hated by Him today. God has not changed His attitude toward sin simply because human culture has changed.
Les explains that the circumstances and responsibilities changed, not God. Adam and Eve had one command; after the Fall everything was different. Later, Israel was placed under the law, and today believers are not under law but under grace. God Himself remains the same.
