Divine Nescience of Future Contingencies a Necessity

By L. D. McCabe, D.D., LL.D.

Prefatory Note.

"Buy the truth, and sell it not," is the voice of inspiration. Prov. xxiii, 23. Truth is very costly; it costs labor, patience, persistency, popularity, and multitudes of prejudices. But it ought to be bought at any price, and sold at no price. "I came into the world to bear witness to the truth," said the Redeemer. How sacred a thing must the truth be, if such a messenger should come from such a place, through such a distance, over such difficulties, down to such a world, to be its unchallenged witness.

I wish now to prove this proposition: Divine Nescience of Future Contingencies is a Necessity.
