Molinism and God's Eternal Decree

from Philosophy: 10-minutes in the doorway · host Professor Owen Anderson, Philosophy

The Jesuit Counter-Reformation offered Molinism as the way to explain God's foreknowledge and defeat the Reformation. The problem is that the "God" of Molinism is contingent, and the "free will" of Molinism is incompatible with counterfactuals of freedom. The God revealed in both scripture and general revelation is the God of the Reformation, who is eternal and decrees all things that come to pass.
