Last time I said that God knows everything, but that he didn’t learn what he knows. There’s never a time when God doesn’t know something and comes to know it later. God knows everything there is to know about himself, and everything there is to know about the universe. To take God’s omniscience even further, he doesn’t just know all that there is. He also knows all that there could have been. For example, when he created the universe, he could have created different kinds of creatures. If you had made different choices yesterday, things might be different for you today. The weather where you live could have been different today. There’s an infinite number ways things could have been, and God knows them all.
