I thought it would be fun to have a thread specifically dedicated to Scripture that supports the Open View. Please add to the list at your leisure. If you’d like to debate about any particular verse or passage, please open a thread using the Scripture reference as the title.
First up...
Genesis 2:19
“So out of the ground the Lord God formed every animal of the field and every bird of the air, and brought them to the man to see what he would call them; and whatever the man called every living creature, that was the name.”
This tells us the motive for God bringing the animals to Adam—in order to see or “find out” how Adam would choose. If God knew Adam’s choices as settled already, Scripture is incorrect when it describes God’s motive in bringing the animals to Adam.
