openness of God

The openness of God refers to the belief that God is inherently relational and responsive, actively engaged with creation and open to human choices and prayers. It suggests that God's knowledge includes all possibilities and that the future is not fixed but partly shaped by human free will. This view emphasizes that God’s love and justice involve ongoing interaction, allowing for real relationships where humans influence outcomes, and that God's plan unfolds dynamically as history progresses. It portrays God as both sovereign and relational, continuously involved in the unfolding story of creation.
