Thomas P. Flint develops and defends the idea of divine providence
sketched by Luis de Molina, the 16th-century Jesuit theologian. The
Molinist account of divine providence reconciles two claims thought
to be incompatible: that God is the all-knowing governor of the
universe and that individual freedom can prevail only in a universe
free of absolute determinism. The Molinist concept of middle
knowledge holds that God knows, though he has no control over,
truths about how any individual would freely choose to act in any
situation, even if the person never encounters that situation.
Given such knowledge, God can be truly providential while leaving
his creatures genuinely free.
