Does God know our actions before we do them? And if so, do human beings truly have free will? William Lane Craig contends that God’s foreknowledge and human free will are compatible. He demonstrates that the Bible teaches divine foreknowledge of human free acts, and reveals two ways of “reconciling divine omniscience with human freedom.”

Not all theologians are content with the doctrine that God foreknows the future free acts of individuals. Hence two sorts of denial of this doctrine have been issued: (1) denial that God has foreknowledge of such events, and (2) denial that there are any truly free acts.
