Modified Omniscience: Study of Swinburne's theory of Omniscience

Abstract"Omniscience" is an attributes of classical theism that affects how it is understood in other doctrines of classical theology, such as immutability, God's Free Will, and man's Free Will. Swinburne, the contemporary English philosopher of religion, argues that the classical notion of Omniscience is not coherent, but incompatible with human free will, God's free will, the first- person propositions, the Tense propositions, and ultimately the scripture; therefore, he has gone beyond the classical notion of "Omniscience" and has provided a more modified explanation of this concept.He believes that because the knowledge of God is limited or because of logical rules; Or because of plans that God has not yet decided; Or God Himself has limited His knowledge, He does not diminish His worship. But Swinburne's modified of Omniscient theory does not seem to be compatible with other attributes of God, such as creative. It can be said that Swinburne has erred in stating that knowledge is limited to Propositional knowledge and considers knowledge of God to be of that type; because in addition to Propositional knowledge, intuitive knowledge can be obtained and God's knowledge can be considered as such. Because Swinburne considers God to be temporal; When God has imposed this restriction on himself, there can be no preference to a specific time.
