Middle Knowledge is the idea that God knows which choices you will make in every possible circumstance so He ordains which circumstances you will be in so that He can get you to make certain choices. This idea implies that God is only sovereign over a person's circumstances, but Scripture teaches otherwise. God controls everything from the smallest of particles to the largest of galaxies. He ordains whatsoever comes to pass, not just what circumstances you will be in. God not only determines the circumstances that you will be in, He determines exactly what your heart will be like. He determines everything that you think, say, and do and He guarantees that those things will come to pass. He knows exactly what choices you will make because He determines what your choices will be. God's plan determines what you will think, say, and do. Man's choices do not determine what God's plan is going to be like.
