 One worry about this approach is that once Jesus prophecies at a particular time that Peter will deny him, God’s atemporally eternal knowledge seems to be “introduced” into the past (as David Widerker says in Widerker 1991), and the advantages of the atemporal eternity view seem to disappear. For we are still left with trying to explain how Peter’s denial could be contingent, given that the prophecy has already occurred. It seems that either Peter’s denial is not free or the past can be changed somehow.
