D&C 3:1–8 The Foreknowledge of God “Prophecies foreshadow events without determining the outcome, because of a divine foreseeing of outcomes.... “God foresaw, but did not cause, Martin Harris’s loss of certain pages of the translated Book of Mormon; God made plans to cope with failure over 1,500 years before it was to occur! (See preface to D&C 10 and Words of Mormon.)... Elder Neal A. Maxwell

D&C 3:1–8 The Foreknowledge of God “It should not surprise us that the Lord, who notices the fall of each sparrow and the hair from every head, would know centuries before how much money Judas would receive—thirty pieces of silver—at the time he betrayed the Savior. (See Matt. 26:15; Matt. 27:3; Zech. 11:12.) Elder Neal A. Maxwell

D&C 3:1–8 The Foreknowledge of God “Quite understandably, the manner in which things unfold seems to us mortals to be so natural. Our not knowing what is to come (in the perfect way that God knows it) thus preserves our free agency completely” (Neal A. Maxwell, “A More Determined Discipleship,” Ensign, Feb. 1979, 71). Elder Neal A. Maxwell
