For the understanding of which we must observe, that it is one and the same undivided knowledge, by which God without any the least alteration, understands things whilst future, when present, when past, and this I affirm to be ascribed unto God formally, because 'tis in him, and that by way of real identity with his Essence, and all his other attributes.

But now this knowledge undergoes several appellations, which are attributed unto it by extrinsical denomination, from the various condition of the things known, so long as the things themselves are to come, it is called Fore-knowledge, when they come, co-knowledge, after they are gone and past, after-knowledge: D. Twice against Jackson pag. 313, 314. I deny not then, but that the formal denomination of foreknowledge is extrinsical. Gods knowledge is so denominated in regard of its preexistence unto the thing known: but that which is affirmed of a thing only by way of extrinsical denomination, may be ascribed thereunto properly, which brings me unto a second Quaere.

Twisse against Jackson pag. 313, 314. I deny not then, but that the formall denomination of foreknowledge is extrinsecall.
