The Foreknowledge of God
Author: Gordon C. Olson
Publisher: Aletheia Pursuits International
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 71
Book Description
"And now with all due respect to those who honestly and prayerfully differ, I must commit the whole investigation to God, with the conviction that I have sought only His glory in it all, that He might withhold any false statements from the full comprehension of the reader, and magnify what truths are herein presented. We are before our great Maker as but dust, and know so little of His greatness, who has declared, "there shall no man see Me, and live." It must also be borne in mind that I am only endeavoring to present evidence to show that the doctrine of absolute foreknowledge lacks proof, and not to establish another doctrine in its place. Evidently fuller evidence is required to establish a new doctrine, than to simply refute the old one. It would certainly be a basis of fellowship if the brethren of the Lord would merely express a doubt on the doctrine of the absolute foreknowledge of God, and cease to regard it as a fundamental part of revelation—as indeed must have been the position of the Apostolic Church." -Preface

The Mechanics of Divine Foreknowledge and Providence
Author: T. Ryan Byerly
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1623567882
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
How exactly could God achieve infallible foreknowledge of every future event, including the free actions of human persons? How could God exercise careful providence over these same events? Byerly offers a novel response to these important questions by contending that God exercises providence and achieves foreknowledge by ordering the times. The first part of the book defends the importance of the above questions. After characterizing the contemporary freedom-foreknowledge debate, Byerly argues that it has focused too narrowly on a certain argument for theological fatalism, which attempts to show that the existence of infallible divine foreknowledge poses a unique threat to the existence of creaturely libertarian freedom. Byerly contends, however, that bare existence of infallible divine foreknowledge cannot threaten freedom in this way; at most, the mechanics whereby this foreknowledge is achieved might so threaten human freedom. In the second part of the book, Byerly develops a model for understanding the mechanics whereby infallible foreknowledge is achieved that would not threaten creaturely libertarian freedom. According to the model, God infallibly foreknows every future event because God has placed the times that constitute the history of the world in primitive earlier-than relations to one another. After defending the consistency of this model of the mechanics of divine foreknowledge with creaturely libertarian freedom, the author applies it to divine providence more generally. A novel defense of concurrentism is the result.
