Does God Know The Future? Book

Does God know what we will choose to do in the future? If God knows the future, do we have a free will? Does God live outside of time? Is this idea biblical? If God knows who will be saved or lost, does it do any good to preach the gospel? Does God Know the Future? offers answers to these important questions from a radically biblical perspective, with intellectually satisfying arguments and easyto- understand practical application. Divided into biblical, philosophical, and practical sections, Does God Know the Future? addresses all the major elements of the foreknowledge vs. free-will question. Does God Know the Future? is a valuable tool for anyone interested in the "open theism" discussion. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Gilbert Bilezikian, Professor Emeritus of Wheaton College, says: "Does God Know the Future? was a necessary book. Before the term 'open theism' was ever invented, Michael Saia had already conducted a lifetime of careful research relevant to the current discussion. The results of this pursuit have now been made graciously available in Does God Know the Future? This book constitutes the most thorough presentation available on the subject of the 'openness of God' theology. In it, the biblical basis for the openness teaching is clearly described, and the arguments propounded against this teaching are systematically examined and critically evaluated. Because the contents of the book have been targeted to include a general readership and because its tone is irenic, it will benefit a wide public who may be aware of the present debate without knowing where to turn to receive simple answers." Michael R. Saia had a teaching ministry as a missionary for seventeen years.He and his wife traveled extensively, teaching in missionary training schools, churches, and seminars.Mike is a published author with a book on counseling that won the "Book of the Year" award from Cornerstone magazine. Mike, his wife, Carol, and their son, Michael, live in Washington State.
