Divine Foreknowledge
By Arthur Pink
"Great is our Lord, and of great power.
His understanding is infinite." Psalm 147:5
God not only knows whatsoever has happened in the past in
every part of His vast domains, and He is not only thoroughly
acquainted with everything that is now transpiring throughout the
entire universe, but he is also perfectly cognizant of every event,
from the least to the greatest, that will ever happen in the ages to
come!
God's knowledge of the future is as complete as is His
knowledge of the past and the present; and that because the
future depends entirely upon Himself.
Were it in anyway possible for something to occur apart from
either the direct agency or permission of God, then that
something would be independent of Him and He would at once
cease to be Supreme.
