I see no one teaching it RN. Nor do you. I see a lot of discussion. You know the difference.

Thanks for the quote from a Calvinist:>). Can you find me one from a Wesleyan?? :>))

We had a Wesleyan pastor posting here for a while that was a definite proponent of the doctrine.

Vernon and xzins seem to have embraced it. People always teach from their own belief position.

I will say that it was my experience that in Wesleyan circles the denial of Foreknowledge is common and taught..that is the building block Boyde builds his system on, so it is a simple move.

I think you and I both know that it would be more correct to say that in Wesleyan circles there is a different understanding of foreknowledge. And you know that Wesley taught that "foreknowledge" was a concept for man's understanding.

God has always known everything that He knows now. He didn't know something before He knew something else.

Otherwise you're saying that God can learn. And isn't that the problem you have with Boyd?

I will let xzins speak for himself, but this is NOT the case for me. Since you obviously do not understand my position, I would appreciate being left out of your comments. Thanks for your understanding.
