Taking the Bible as a whole, not taking one verse or passage and adapting it to fit my needs, it seems to me that he did. He created man in his own image which seems to mean he gave us the right to choose. Then he didn't like the choices we were making and flooded all but one family. (erasing a mistake?) Then he made Ten Commandments which he replaced with his Son and now Christians have only one commandment - BELIEVE. (erasing another mistake?)

A little out of order there- God gave man commandments -rules- if you must to protect us way before the flood. And could you imagine going to Sodom and Gomorrah and having the men of the town try to have sex you? Almost breaking down the door to get to you...
Jesus never took the place of the ten commandments- Jesus did take the place for the sacrificing of animals to atone for sins. Christians have all 10 commandments to obey- and to believe in Jesus.
Everyone always thinks the Christian life is easy- and all we do is sit around and talk about others and try to impose our beliefs on them- Wrong-
We have problems, disappointments, deaths and diseases to cope with.
The only difference between believers and non- believers- we are saved- But the cost was huge- Jesus had to die so that I could be forgiven.

bible was written by people.who were listening to the prophets and translating thei speech into something they could understand.
he gave us the right to choose.and told usthis is right and that is wrong.don't do wrong.utherwise there's punishment on to u.
and after we chose to not believe or worship him he sent message with Prophet Noah telling everyone worship God and None onto Him. but people did not listen so he punished them.
the he gave the jews the freedom and limited them by ten commendments and lots of miracles that they actually did not notice. they kept decievivg Prophet Moses and God.
and than Prophet Jesus came and preched to believe none but God .
God is the Almighty And the most powerful.If He was able to make mistakes then u and me woulkd not b such a wonder.and the universe would not go in the hurmonious way.and the son would go one day from east and the other from west.

First, would you make a tape recorder to say the following if you were god, "i love you god, i love you god, i really love you" IF YOU KNEW the reason was that thing you made had no choice, of coulrse not, God when He made folks gave us A choice, now you may think you can choose between good and evil but thats not true, you CAN NOT choice not to do evil, when Adam and Eve first sinned they changed natures, and because they are your parents you now have a nature which responds to satan, the ONLY CHOICE you have is to pick Jesus Christ, other wise YOU HAVE NO choice at all. The world was flooded because it was so taken in by there choices of evil that God HAD to step in, as He will soon again, want more info, free bible lessons www.itiswritten.com EMAIL me also [not messanger] wgr88@yahoo.com God bless you

No, God is perfect. It is upon God's will for us to make mistakes, there can be no mistakes for He who created the heavens and earths.
If you really want to see the truth don't look at your self and your mistakes look at how balanced and perfect the other creations of God are.
Take a look at the way everything is organized, and you'll see that the Creator is perfect. It is the creature that is imperfect, and that was by God's will.
Hope you'll be able to see that

No he is not erasing mistakes and he did not make any he did regret making man in his own image because man did not and does not live up to his image, But as far as mistakes i think when Noah went into the ark he could have left the mosquito's out side to drown

No, God did not make mistakes. When He made the first human beings --Adam and Eve--, He made them perfect, without sin. Since the day the human race decided to rebel against their Creator, and thus sin entered in our world, the human race is bieng lowered. One example is that Adam heighted about 6 meteres, and lived about 930 years. How much do we height now, and how many years do we live? See? We're just paying the consequences of sin. God warned us that if we sin, we would die, and sadly we actually die --since the day we're born-- little by little. Since God is the source of life, and sin produces separation between God and us, and thus separation from the Source of life, the normal consequence of sin is death
Let's remember that rebellion was the human race's decision, not God's. He didn't make a mistake, we did. And so, 2,000 years later, evil had spread out so quickly, that it was too dangerous to leave the men alive. How many faithful people did God find in the times of Noah? Only Noah and his family? Actually not. At the beginning of the construction of the ark, there other people who believed God's message through Noah, and helped him to build the ark. But, as the years passed by, and more people got fun of them, their faith fell, and joined the ones who were making fun of Noah and his family. Finally, the only ones who were saved were Noah and his family --including his sons' wives--, but because they decided to trust God. Anyone could have been saved, if they had only believed God's Word, but they didn't. It was their decision, and God always respects our decisions, though the results might be too painful for Him.
If God had not destroyed those people with a flood, how long do you think Noah and his family could have survived? Or for how long could he remain faithful? Of course, God has power to keep them faithful, but as humans we fail, and sometimes we get away from God. You see? Sin is like a cancer. If you don't cut off the leg, it will spread out to the whole body. God could not take the risk of letting inmorality to reach Noah and his family. God saved them just at time: they were the only faithfu familyl in the whole world!
About the Ten Commandments, you know, this theme is a little controversial. The Bible tells us that there are two laws: the Moral Law of God --the Ten Commandments--, and the ceremonial law --the law of Moses. The law of Moses, was the civil law for the Israelites and also contained commandments about sacrifices, ceremonies, feasts; which pointed up to Jesus Christ as our Saviour. In other words, the ceremonial law described through symbols the sacrifice of Christ for humanity. Once the symbols found their fulfillment in the Person they represented, the law of Moses was "nailed" to the Cross. For example, we're not longer to sacrifice lambs for our sins because the Lamb of God already died about 2,000 years ago for our sins.
But the Moral Law of God --the Ten Commandments-- did not come to existence in Mt. Sinai neither was abolished on the Cross. That Law is eternal: It has always existed and always will be! Sin is the transgression of the Law. Christ did not come to abolished that Law, because that would be like giving us licence to sin, and we all know that God hates sin, but loves the sinner. Jesus saves us from sin, not in sin.

God never has & never will make a "mistake" as u call it. Rather, He gave mankind "choice" & because of the fallen angels, we don't always make the right choices. Sin will take u further than u want to go, cost u more than u want to pay, & keep u longer than u want to stay. For more info, check out http://www.gotquestions.org & type in ur keyword for a search.

beleive it or not the 10 commandment were in effect since creation. Jesus does not replace them. He replace the Laws of Moses which were ordinances, like feasts, sacrificing a lamb, and circumcision.

Yeah he committed lots of mistakes to be believed to be God.
Even the holy spirit which guides the pope committed mistake lol.
The pope even apologises which means the holy spirit misguided him.
What a shame!
