Is God a timeless God? One
standard argument against the supposition that He is that it appears to be
incompatible with God’s posited omniscience. If God is timeless, He cannot know
truths involving temporal indexicals, such as the one I express right now by ”I
am sitting now”. In this article, I discuss this argument and consider some
replies to it. I focus on the denial of the view according to which knowledge
expressed with temporally indexical true statements is relevantly different from
knowledge expressed with corresponding statements without indexicals.
