Does God know everything, or is He just really good at guessing? On the Ask A Christian Podcast, I, Nate Cunningham, wrestle with the brain-bender of God’s omniscience. Some say He’s learning on the job—others, like me, figure He’s got the cosmic cheat sheet. Spoiler: the Bible’s not shy about flexing God’s all-knowing cred. Let’s dive in!

Does God Know Everything? The Basics

Isaiah 46:10 says God’s calling “the end from the beginning”—sounds like He’s got the script before the movie drops. But then Genesis 18 has Him “checking out” Sodom, like He’s playing cosmic detective. Does God know everything, or is He just faking it ‘til He makes it? I lean hard on John 1:1—the Word was God, not “God’s intern still figuring it out.” Still, doubters love the “open theism” card—cute, but flimsy.

Why It’s Not Just Nerd Talk

Listeners chimed in—one guy’s like, “If God knows, why pray?” Fair point, but knowing ain’t the same as rigging. Does God know everything and still let us flail? Yep—free will’s the spice in this divine stew. What’s your angle—omniscience or divine improv?

God’s omniscience isn’t up for debate—He’s got the playbook, and we’re still tripping over page one.
