Does God Know Everything? Does He Know the End of a Thing from the Beginning?
1) Direct Answer
Yes. God knows everything, and He knows the end from the beginning.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- The Bible says, “I am God… declaring the end from the beginning” (Isaiah 46:9-10).
- “Known unto God are all His works from the beginning of the world” (Acts 15:18).
- “All things are naked and opened unto the eyes of Him” (Hebrews 4:13).
- “God is greater… and knoweth all things” (1 John 3:20).
- “Thine eyes did see my substance… in Thy book all my members were written” (Psalm 139:16).
- “Whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate” (Romans 8:29), and He “works all things after the counsel of His own will” (Ephesians 1:11).
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
Now notice, prophecy proves it. God doesn’t guess—He declares. He is the Alpha and Omega, not learning as He goes. You see, He foreknew and therefore could predestinate, choose, and guide history without being the author of sin. He can set life and death before man, let man make a choice, and still know exactly how it will turn out because He saw it before the world began.
4) Reinforcing Statement
It’s not uncertainty with God. He’s the one true God, all-knowing, and He has already seen the finish before the first step was taken.

The invisible union of the Bride of Christ
65-1125 §86
When you see the woman a by-product, not another female like her, made in that order, in order she could be deceived. God knowed ... if He didn't know the end from the beginning, then He wasn't God. If He isn't infinite... If He can't be infinite without being omniscient, omnipresent, knowing all things, eternal, so He knew all things. And He had to make that woman. The man didn't have a wife. The wife and the man was the same thing. He had the feminish and masculine spirit in himself. He had to separate, take a by...
Led by the Spirit
59-0407 §10
Now the time had come where there was not too many believers left. But God has always had a remnant of people who believed Him. And we're told that there was an old man in Jerusalem at that time by the name of Simeon. And he was a renowned old fellow. He was a teacher, a master in Israel. Let's say he'd be some eighty years old, long flowing white beard, and his hair. But he was a devout man. He was a man who believed God and was waiting for God to fulfill His promise. I'd like to stop here just a moment to say thi...
An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages
CAB 4:E-124
The eternal thoughts of God! Let me ask you, "Are the thoughts of God eternal?" If you can see this, you will see many things. God is unchangeable in both essence and behavior. We have studied that and proven that already. God is infinite in His abilities so therefore He as God must be omniscient. If He is omniscient, then He is not now learning, nor is He taking counsel even with Himself, nor is He at any time adding to His knowledge. If He can add to His knowledge, then He is not omniscient. The best we could say...
Early spiritual experiences
52-0713A §6
Now, in Jeremiah, I want to read a portion of the Word. I want to read from the first chapter, and the fourth and fifth verse of Jeremiah. And then from there, I will quote two or three Scriptures, and then try to get off the platform, within an hour, if I possible can, so you have time to go home, and get back. Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying, (Jeremiah, the prophet speaking.) Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; ... before I formed thee, I knew thee; and before thou comest forth from the...
A Greater Witness
53-1115E §40
Now, I can't see it when I'm standing like I am now, but when the Spirit of God so anoints and takes away, then I see it. And it moves out here in the audience, and the only thing... I don't see the individual, I just see the light, and I watch it. And then, as I'm watching that light, it just breaks through, and I see something take place. Then when it leaves, I try to keep on my mind what it was. Then I look and see if I can see that person--where it was at. Then I say, like, I see a person go in a hospital--had...
