Predestination and omniscience The Socinians believed that God's omniscience was limited to what was a necessary truth in the future (what would definitely happen) and did not apply to what was a contingent truth (what might happen). They believed that, if God knew every possible future, human free will was impossible and as such rejected the "hard" view of omniscience.The Racovian Catechism (English trans. Thomas Rees, London 1818), pp. 332–346. Modern process theology and open theism advance a similar viewpoint.
