    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    God wants a relationship with us where we are free to learn from Him. learning requires making mistakes and discovering that these were mistakes. Learning leads to the realisation that we do not know very much at all, and even what we think we know may be "off" a little or a lot, and may need to...

    Becomes Trump a dictator?

    Sadly, there are family I have who have been saturated with 9 years of anti-Trump media reporting, from the media channels they trust, but we know find were funded by the deep state through USAID to "get Trump", whose automatic reaction to the name Trump is recoil and disdain and "evil little...

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    The literal trqnstation of the words in this proverb are: Ha-GaDoRaL (The lot) YUTaL (Hiphil Imperfect: is being cast) Ba-HeYKh (into the lap) U-MeYHoVaH (and/but Yehovah) MiShPaT-oV (His judgement) KoL (whole) MiShPaT-oV (His judgment). Is it really obvious that this means that God knows...

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    CSI is defending a position that God knows every detail of history and has known it from before creation even started. So when CSI says "God knows what man does not know," as a supporting argument for that view, I did not think CSI meant "God knows some things that man does not know." I think...

    Becomes Trump a dictator?

    Well, Trump's policies are far more congruent to biblical principles than Harris' were, so you would be either a Trump voter or a no-show.

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    Arguably, someone who thinks God is able to achieve His ends only if He knows every detail of history, even before he starts the world, thinks God is not smart enough to problem-solve unexpected challenges to His plans and overcome those glitches to nevertheless achieve His planned outcomes. I...

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    Yes He did. He knew before I said it. He could read the neurons pathways that were preparing me to say it. But I don't think He knew from all eternity past that I would say it.

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    You said, lrs68 said: "Isaiah said God is the only God who knows the END from the BEGINNING. If God knows how things will END that means He knows everything in between the end and the beginning. For God to know the END before something begins that is DIVINE FOREKNOWLEDGE of the FUTURE. You...

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    To accuse someone who thinks God does not foreknow exhaustively from eternity past all future events of thinking "too little" of God, you should be able to prove God does know more than the other person agrees He knows. It is not more virtuous to allege too much of someone that to allege too...

    PaulThomson said: Please highlight the parts of the biblical citations in your previous post that directly declare exhaustive divine foreknowledge of the future. You did not do what I asked? You ran away to another illogical assertion.

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    Absolute control over a person is not intimacy, I have never seen a relationship of intimacy where one person is trying to control every aspect of the other person's development.

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    PaulThomson said: And yet you are binding God to having to know all the future based on human rationale. Nothing in those texts says that God exhaustively knows the future. The only way to to get to Exhaustive Divine Foreknowledge from those texts is to add presuppositions from human rationale.

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    He observes the formation of every aspect of the formation of each person and is recording it as it happens, according to Ps. 139. Nature also uses the process God invented, although the process has degenerated somewhat due to mankind's degeneration, and so throw up some noticably malformed persons.

    Becomes Trump a dictator?

    He did not say, "He who thinks he's saving the country is above the law." He said, "He who saves his country does not violate any law.' Are you a @ResidentAlien from a non-English-speaking country?

    Is Open Theism Heresy?

    I'm an Open Theist and I believe God is intricately involved in every aspect of our world. In Him we live and move and have our being. I experience God by trusting Him and seeing my life play out according to His promises for those who trust Him. I experience God through conversation, with...
