"Do you know the story of Jonah . God told him that he would destroy a city unless they repented . Jonah went to that city and preached that they all faced destruction . Then God took mercy upon them after they had repented . Jonah felt like he looked like a fool , because he promised punishment and retribution and none happened ... Why did n't you include this as an example of a 'failed ' prophecy as you are determined to take things out of contect ."
"My list was simply one off of a website . I 've read through the Bible once but ca n't say that I was able to pick out flaws in it through my own reading . I was glad to see that someone with much more time and a keener eye was able to list out a few valid flaws on those websites . I remember the story that you speak of only vaguely . I suppose I should look it up and read it again if you could mention the passage . Anyways , the way you describe it , Jonah went to the cities , gave them a warning , they repented which canceled the warning , and therefore nothing happened just like God said . Jonah may have felt stupid , but the story makes perfect sense . All the loose ends are tied up . I guess you will have to expand on why you believe this is a failed prophecy ."
