El único sabio dios: la compatibilidad del preconocimiento divino y la libertad humana

by William Lane Craig

¿Dios conoce nuestras acciones antes de que las hagamos? Y si es así, ¿los seres humanos tienen realmente libre albedrío? El Dr. Craig sostiene que ambas nociones son compatibles, mostrando cómo la Biblia enseña el preconocimiento divino de los actos humanos libres, y revela dos maneras de «reconciliar la omnisciencia divina con la libertad humana».

Reviews

[Miguel Cisneros Saucedo · Rating 2 out of 5]

Excelente. Cumplió con mis expectativas.

[Alejandro Pérez Vera · Rating 2 out of 5]

La verdad es que aunque Criag dice que es de lectura fácil, realmente no lo es, debe leerse de forma muy concentrada y conocer algunos términos para no irse perdiendo entre las líneas de este libro.

[Kingsley Layton · Rating 5 out of 5]

A very thorough and quite brilliant collection of arguments from WLC that particularly help in the Middle Knowledge debate.

There are not many publications which directly address anti-Molinism, but this book does a great job of defending Molinism and goes further by offering a rebuttal to John Feinsberg's anti-Molinism works.

I would love to see/read/hear WLC doing this particular strand of apologetics more regularly.
