No. Knowledge is not causation.
God can’t intervene in history since that intervention could be construed as “causation”; again, history is just a rerun.
I never said He can't intervene. Scripture and history are full of instances where He has intervened. Note what's missing though--His forcing people to make decisions He wants. He persuades, He talks, He smites (in the OT), but He never forces someone to change their mind.
Also note that I am NOT saying He is unable to do this. I am claiming that He is unwilling to do this. Big difference.
History is not "just a rerun." We need to make these decisions on our own--so that we KNOW we are responsible. This is not for His benefit--it's for ours.

What about Paul?
