The book "My God Knows My Future" is a challenge to the hermeneutical presuppositions of the theological movement called "open theism," also known as the open view of God. Open theism's basic premise is that God does not know future because the future does not exist to be known.The book "My God Knows My Future" breaks down the four a priori and faulty assumptions upon which open theism rests, that have led their proponents to make the wrong conclusion about God's foreknowledge. Their four faulty premises are: First, God's knowledge is limited to the present. God experiences like people, in a linear sequential manner. Second, God's knowledge of the future makes him an accessory to evil and necessarily eliminates human free will. Third, biblical prophecy is not absolute because many prophecies have gone unfulfilled. Fourth, while openness theologians reject the existence of the future, even as non-causal information, they still insist that God can preordain future events without knowing how those events will emerge or the consequences that will result from them. The book "My God Knows My Future" argues that these four presuppositions, among a few others, are unsustainable within "open view" theology.
