God knew what would have happened if pagan cities like Tyre and Sidon had received special revelation. He knows the possibilities. He knew what would have happened even if it didn t come into being. Nothing ever happens that has not first been known and willed by God. And it means that whatever the circumstances in life, even while they may be puzzling and frightening to us, we ought not to panic because God never panics, He is always in control.
Divine omniscience is a comforting doctrine.
They ask people trivial questions and they rattle them off and they keep on going for more and more money. Being able to rattle off an infinite amount of answers. No, God s knowledge is much more, it is personal knowledge. We have not fully understood God s omniscience until we have come to understand that not only does He know everything that is out there, and all things that could have possibly been, but that God knows me. He knows the worst and the best about us.
