Thomas Oord (ThomasJayOord.com) wrote a book entitled “God Can’t.” It’s an articulate presentation of Open Theism, a belief that supposes for freewill to exist, the future is unknowable, even to God. So if God doesn’t know the future, this would mean limitations in his power which goes against what most believe about God. At the same time, this posture is more suitable to make sense of all the pain in this world. It goes like this: It’s not that God allows evil, but rather because He gave us freewill, He doesn’t know the evil we’ll do and thus can’t stop it. This is an intriguing discussion in which Jack Hoey and I try to make sense of this theology as well as poke holes in it. Although I do not hold this view, it’s certainly not as far-fetched as it may appear at first glance.
