>No, there is a distinction between a command to take some action and whether that action is actually undertaken.
You have shifted the goalposts; you implied previously that God actively decreed things that were against his will to happen whereas now you've softened the point and seem to have ceded that there are things that happen that God doesn't will

Regardless, it's pretty blatantly a lie for God to say that things "didn't enter his mind" when he literally decreed them to happen, or for him to claim that he has "longed to gather" Jerusalem under him when he really has predestined them to go astray; this is obviously absurd two-faced behavior and presents a picture of a deity that says one thing and does another, that claims to despise evil despite being the cause of it all - as a certain someone said, it is better to let your "yes" be "yes" and your "no" be "no" than to become mired in this ridiculous Calvinist pilpul of God having two separate contradictory wills

You went into a tangent about a bunch of other shit that doesn't have anything to do with the conversation but none of it's really relevant to the point so I'll ignore it
