Abstract

The aim of research is determining divine omniscience with human free will. As human beings make different decisions in various circumstances, God also changes his aspect of pre-planned things according to the circumstances of human beings. This theory shows flexibility in God's decisive power according to circumstances. For measuring the research used different theories data for determine the contemporary philosophical inquiry. Process theology is a significant philosophical theory that helps explain how Divine omniscience and human free will can be reconciled. The dynamic relationship between God and humans is at the center of this theory. According to this theory, God and people have a kind and compassionate relationship rather than one that is harsh and domineering. God is able to modify his plan in light of people's free will. This idea clarifies the flexible aspects of God's decisions, which promote a stronger relationship between God and people. Libertarianism is another significant and contemporary philosophical system that has to do with balancing human free will with Divine omniscience.
