saying that the pharisees were vipers would hardly be technically the truth you know . . . .
Isaish spoke the words the Lord gave him to speak when Isaiah prophesized to the Hebrews. Since nothing in Scripture contradicts the prophecy that Isaiah spoke then it can be assured that he spoke the truth.
In the case of Jonah, he was told if Nivevah repented of their sins then they would be spared. Since they did repent and were spared then the prophecy was true. God knowing all things, however, knew before hand that Nineveh would repent and thus added the stipulation when he gave the prophecy to Jonah.Stand up for what is right, even if you have to stand alone.

So are you implying that Jesus lied?
Are you saying you have evidence that Isaiah lied?
First of all I did misquote from Jonah. The actual even that caused God to change was this.
When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he had compassion and did not bring upon them the destruction he had threatened.
Secondly I did not set the standard. Where do you get the impression that I set the standard.
So did the homosexuals all die or did they repent and stop being homosexuals before the late '90s? Is there reason that God should have changed his mind about what Benny Hinn claimed God told him?Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

God had compassion on them because they repented.

I'm saying that you don't have conculsive evidence that he was always 100% accurate in his prophesies. [/quote]
As we both know Parables and hyperbole are analogies and exaggerations that highlight or explain a greater truth. When I walk outside and say "It's hotter than heck out here" that is not a lie althought the temp really isn't hotter than heck (however hot heck) but to quarrel on my or Jesus' usage of hyperbole is a bit silly. With Jesus, he did not sin or else he would have been unacceptable as the paschol lamb. Since he was acceptable then we can state without doubt that he didn't lie.
As for Isaiah, I would stick by my assumption that because God spoke through him that all his prophecy will come to pass. To even suggest that God my not tell the truth is a path a don't care to tread which is what you are doing when you suggest that Isaiah my not be 100% accurate in his prophecy. Now I must counsel you to be causious.
Now lets take a look at the Lords words concerning a prophet in light of Jonah and Benny Hinn.
Deuteronomy 18:7-20
The Lord said to me: “What they say is good. I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. If anyone does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account.
But a prophet who presumes to speak in my name anything I have not commanded him to say, or a prophet who speaks in the name of other gods, must be put to death.”Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

How do you knowthat Hinn did not utter the words God gave him to speak?

No way could it be Hinn or Robert Tilton or someone like that. You think they'd claim the world is coming to an end? Who's gonna send them a check if they think Armageddon is gonna happen before it can be cashed? Now if fools stopped sending their last buck to Tilton as some bogus faith seed offering it might be Tilton's Armageddon. ;)
