Does Hell REFUTE an All-Knowing, All-Good God?

Описание: This video lays out a challenge for Christians who believe in both Hell and an all-knowing, all-loving, and all-powerful God. Here’s the gist:

If an all-knowing God creates people that He knows will go to Hell, then those people don’t have free will. And if they don’t have free will, then God is sending them to Hell for no fault of their own. Since that is incompatible with a good God, then, therefore, Hell is incompatible with an all-knowing and all-good God.

At the heart of this challenge is a fundamental error in thinking. More specifically, this challenge has a mistaken understanding of how God’s foreknowledge works. It assumes God’s foreknowledge somehow causes my actions. And if it causes my actions, then I’m not free.

But God’s foreknowledge doesn’t cause what will happen. Rather, it reports what will happen. That’s a really important difference. It’s not God’s knowledge of my future actions that cause my future actions. Rather, it’s my actions that ground God’s knowledge.
