Can God Be Wrong?


Can God be wrong about the future? If the answer is no, then even considering our free will, and our responsibility for what we do, people won’t do anything other than what God already knows they’re going to do. So, that means the future is already fixed. But how is the future fixed?

If God does it, then you can be confident that there is a good purpose behind all you see, even if you can’t see it now. But if God doesn’t do it, then God wouldn’t have a planned-out purpose for all the evil that happens. God just learns what happens, and then reacts, causing good to come from evil.

But that would make the universe bigger than God, because God would be dependent on other things. And that God may be the biggest thing in the universe. But that God can’t be God, because you can imagine something greater. And that God is smaller than the God of the Bible.
