A Christian Approach to the Philosophy of Time

Page 10, 2^nd paragraph, starting on the 7^th line, “Surely God’s knowledge does undergo temporal sequence….” Wow. And this guy wouldn’t argue something that he didn’t think compatible with EO.

Hmmm. I still have questions. It’s SO mind-boggling.

At bare minimum, we have no analogy by which to conceive of God's thought if it doesn't involve temporal sequence. And that alone would mean "knowledge" and "thought" language, as applied to God, would be meaningless. I like that about Hartshorne. He's about intelligibility and what that requires.
