if we assume that there is only one God and that he is all knowing - then why did he send different prophets?

Answer 1

In his dispensation to forge the Israelites into his "chosen people." But the Israelites had a choice to follow or not.

Answer 2

I am a little confused by the question, but will give it a shot.

1. I know there is only one true God, no assumption involved.
2. His Word tells me He is all knowing, no assumption involved.
3. What does sending different prophets have to do with Him being the only true God and the fact that He is all knowing? The prophets were sent for instruction and oftentimes warnings. They were sent over many different periods of times, under various circumstances.

Not sure I have answered your question as I do not really understand it, but hope this helps. Go in peace.

Answer 3

Because man need to be educated through various Cycles, like an individual man progresses from childhood to adolescence, from youth to adulthood. All the different Prophets bring the one Plan of the One True God for various levels of advancement.

Answer 4

Prophets were sent by God to tell the people what God wanted them to know at that time.

Answer 5

Peace!
God is a loving and merciful God. He wanted to give the Israelites all the chances to repent. The book of Jonah tells us of a prophet who was able to convince some Jews to repent.
Have a blessed day

Answer 6

Just because GOD knows everything doesn't mean that he decided to tell US all of it at once; thus, the occasional prophet is useful to clarify and expand on the original :-)

Answer 7

Different prophets were sent at different times to warn the people. They weren't all here at once.

Answer 8

because there were different nations and every nation was good in something ,so God almighty sent each prophet supported with miracles in order 2 let each nation worships Him

Answer 9

That's a lot to assume, especially since there is absolutely NO evidence or proof to support the existence of god...

Answer 10

I don't assume anything nor do I accept anything told to me.The existence of a supreme being or beings is probable but nothing anyone has written or told stories about convinces me that they know anything about that supreme being or beings.
