Among Protestants, the Remonstrants by common consent approve middle knowledge

Protestant views on this matter also vary. First, those in the Netherlands called Remonstrants seem by common consent to approve of middle knowledge as described so far.

They acknowledge that God foresees not only what will absolutely happen, but also whatever would happen freely in any order of things in which God might choose to place free agents.

Latin

XXII. Quod spectat autem Protestantes, variae quoque sunt eorum hac de re sententiae. Et primo quidem illi qui in Belgio Remonstrantes vocantur, videntur communi consensu scientiam illam mediam qualis hactenus descripta est probare, & agnoscere Deum non solum quae sunt absolute futura praevidere, sed etiam quaecunque libere futura essent, in quocunque rerum ordine Deo placeret agentia libera collocare.
