Greg Boyd

Greg Boyd is a theologian who argues that genuine free will and divine foreknowledge can coexist without conflict. He suggests that for humans to have real freedom in their decisions, God must allow for possibilities, meaning God's knowledge of the future is not strictly predetermined. Boyd proposes an open view of God’s foreknowledge, positing that while God knows all possibilities, the actual future is shaped by human choices. This perspective emphasizes God's relational nature, suggesting that He interacts dynamically with creation rather than controlling every event, ensuring that human free will remains intact in the context of divine omniscience.
