What is this?  |
"Middle knowledge" seems to be lack of knowledge of the attributes of the true and living God. With a wounded adam,instead of a dead adam added into the mix.
On the link posted by David I found this by William Lane Craig.

But what exactly is the problem with God's condemning persons who adhere to non-Christian religions? I do not see that the very notion of hell is incompatible with a just and loving God. According to the New Testament, God does not want anyone to perish, but desires that all persons repent and be saved and come to know the truth (11 Peter 3.9; 1 Timothy 2.4). He therefore seeks to draw all men to Himself. Those who make a well-informed and free decision to reject Christ are self-condemned, since they repudiate God's unique sacrifice for sin. By spurning God's prevenient grace and the solicitation of His Spirit, they shut out God's mercy and seal their own destiny. They, therefore, and not God, are responsible for their condemnation, and God deeply mourns their loss. |
This is the same lie that says God does not send anyone to hell, they send themselves. This middle knowledge god wants to save but cannot. He seeks but cannot save. The wounded sinner is sovereign and as usual he makes his choice how and when he will be saved,if at all.
It is one thing if a person has not heard the truth and prayerfully searched the scriptures for it. These teachings look to be slickly crafted to attempt to undermine the sure foundation of the Grace of God.
