For a long time, this expat 90s film was rumored, I'd only seen the trailer, but it seems while we were sleeping the full movie was finally released, on Vimeo about a year or so ago. Highly recommend watching, such great times will never be again;

My Prague Spring My Prague Spring is an award-winning film that vividly humanizes a resilient people who have survived a tumultuous history. In the spring of 1990, a Czech-American…

God can do anything? The Bible includes miracles affecting nature (sun standing still, resurrection, prophecy of future events), but never a retroactive change. God cannot change the past.

Using AI is a great way to research the holy books. Here’s the breakdown:

1. The Bible presents the past as fixed

Stories are told linearly, and once something happens, it remains part of the narrative. Even when events are forgiven or redeemed, they are not erased.

Example: King David’s sin with Bathsheba is forgiven, but the historical event is never undone.

2. God foreknows and predestines, but does not rewrite

Several passages describe God as knowing everything beforehand (e.g., “declaring the end from the beginning”), but this is about complete knowledge, not retroactive editing.

This is what theologians call:

Foreknowledge

Providence

Sovereignty

None of these involve time travel or past modification.

3. Some passages are misread as God “changing His mind”

In a few places, God appears to “relent” or “repent” (e.g., with Nineveh or Moses on Sinai). These describe:

God changing His planned course of action, not changing events that already happened.

It’s a relational, responsive description — not a revision of prior history.

4. Important distinction: God can wipe away sins, but not the historical act

Forgiveness and atonement are portrayed as:

Cancelling guilt

Restoring relationship

…but never erasing the actual event. Even forgiven figures have their stories preserved.

5. No biblical examples of time reversal or timeline alteration.

So I've found something god cannot do.
