Experiential knowledge cannot be reduced to intellectual knowledge. This has important consequences for the doctrine of divine omniscience: if God cannot undergo experiences and is intellectually omniscient only, there is some knowledge He does not possess. This is not a minor restriction on God’s omniscience, and makes a satisfactory solution of the problem of evil virtually impossible. Therefore it is argued that God must be able to undergo experiences and must be experientially as well as intellectually omniscient. %U https://www.aup-online.com/content/journals/10.5117/NTT1992.1.003.SARO
