Jerry Walls

Jerry Walls is a philosopher who explores the relationship between free will and divine foreknowledge, particularly in the context of Christian theology. He argues that God’s knowledge of the future does not eliminate human free will; rather, it coexists with our ability to make genuine choices. Walls suggests that if God knows our future decisions, it does not mean He causes them, preserving our moral responsibility. He emphasizes that true freedom requires the capacity to choose, irrespective of divine foreknowledge, allowing for a meaningful relationship between God and humanity while maintaining personal accountability.
