Contradiction with Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: this suggests God does not change His mind, contrasting with Jeremiah 18:7, where God indicates a change based on actions.
Numbers 23:19: God [is] not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do [it]? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Contradiction with Malachi 3:6
For I am the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed: this implies God's unchanging nature, which seems to contrast with the conditional statement in Jeremiah 18:7.
Malachi 3:6: For I [am] the LORD, I change not; therefore ye sons of Jacob are not consumed.
Contradiction with James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning: this verse suggests God's constancy, opposing the notion of reversal in Jeremiah 18:7.
James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Contradiction with Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever: suggesting an unchanging divine nature, conflicting with the idea of potential change in God's actions as seen in Jeremiah 18:7.
Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 15:29
And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he is not a man, that he should repent; this portrays God as unwavering, which contrasts with the conditional potential for change in Jeremiah 18:7.
1 Samuel 15:29: And also the Strength of Israel will not lie nor repent: for he [is] not a man, that he should repent. [Strength: or, Eternity, or, Victory]
Paradox #1
The possible contradiction in Jeremiah 18:7 could be regarding the idea of God's unchanging nature. Some may see a conflict in how this verse suggests that God is willing to change His plans for a nation based on their actions, which might seem inconsistent with the belief in God's immutability. This could raise questions about how God's eternal plans and human free will interact.
Paradox #2
Jeremiah 18:7 talks about God deciding to uproot or destroy a nation or kingdom. A potential contradiction or conflict arises when comparing this with other verses where God is described as unchanging or where He promises never to destroy certain people. This might seem inconsistent to readers who are trying to understand how God can change His plans or decisions.
