Nov 5, 2014: Eclectic Orthodoxy: Greg Boyd and C. S. Lewis on the Open Future
Greg Boyd just posted a short article on his blog: “Does the Open View Limit God?” His thesis is simply stated: open theists do not limit God, as they agree with classical theists that God knows everything that can be known; therefore the open God is properly described as omniscient.

Aug 21, 2007: An Appraisal of Folly: An Answer to Greg Boyd’s Argument from Demonically-Influenced Infirmities
Read Boyd’s argument here. When people disagree over theological issues it seems like the opposing parties skip over the good points and focus only on the bad. I want to point out that I think Boyd has made a some good points about demons and their ability to influence the natural world. I also like his point that just because something can be explained scientifically does not rule out the supernatural aspect about it. That being said, I still have to take issue with Boyd’s hypothesis, and I will only relate a few observations in response.
