- W2316455894 abstract "Gordon Knight recently challenged my assumption, which I made for the purpose of organizing and classifying certain theological disputes, that a specific set of three propositions is logically inconsistent (or necessarily false). In this brief rejoinder, I explain Knight’s objection and show why it rests upon a misunderstanding. In a previous article I assumed, for the purpose of organizing and classifying certain theological disputes, that the following set of propositions, call it set A, is logically inconsistent: (1) It is God's redemptive purpose for the world (and therefore his will) to reconcile all sinners to himself; (2) It is within God's power to achieve his redemptive purpose for the world; (2) Some sinners will never be reconciled to God, and God will therefore either consign them to a place of eternal punishment, from which there will be no hope of escape, or put them out of existence altogether. In calling set A logically inconsistent, I did not mean to imply, of course, that it contains a formal contradiction; I meant to imply only that the conjunction of (1), (2), and (3) is necessarily false, or metaphysically impossible, or not possible in Plantinga=s broadly logical sense. If that is true, then at least one of these propositions is false and we can therefore classify theologians according to which of the three propositions they finally reject. Nor is it usually very difficult, I suggested, to identify which proposition a given theologian rejects. According to Gordon Knight, however, it is a mistake to regard set A as necessarily false. In a recent response to my article, Knight makes two assumptions for which he provides no argument: first, that something like a conflict of desires is possible for God, and second, that God=s redemptive purpose for the world (logically) could come into conflict with some other overriding purpose. From the perspective of these assumptions, he then diagnoses my Aerror@ as" @default.
