Sinopsis

Calvinists are accused of committing a modal fallacy by equating certainty with necessity in understanding how God's foreknowledge relates to His eternal decree and free will. By certainty, God knows what free creatures are going to do because He foresees it although they could have chosen otherwise. God knows what they will do without decreeing what they will do. By necessity, God knows what free creatures are going to do because He has inexhaustible foreknowledge and decreed what they were going to do before He foresees it thus rendering it infallibly to occur in that they could not do otherwise. How does God's omniscience and foreknowledge relate to human freedom and His eternal decree? www.seancole.net
