This goes against the common notion that the Creator is timeless and unchanged. God today is the same is He was 10 million years ago, etc. 

His divine nature doesn't change, simply his abilities are limited for a time/reason.

An example from Christianity is Christ, when he took the form of a man, he was able to suffer pain, which is not something Holy God is normally understood to do. But he limited his divinity for a moment. It doesn't change the fact that he could've broken free from that form at any moment, but he chose not to do so, because he had salvation in mind. (Philippians 2:1-11 as an example of this)

The key word here is chose.



Omniscience is a part of God's divine nature.

And I'm saying that putting his thoughts to rest, for a moment, does not change that. He knows all things, but he doesn't consider idea A or B when making a specific decision if his will is not to think about it.

I edited my post, the example I gave should help.

You can give me easy replies, but they will never answer your questions....
