Theistic finitism

Theistic finitism, also known as finitistic theism or finite godism, is the belief in a deity that is limited.^[1]^[2] It has been proposed by some philosophers and theologians to solve the problem of evil. Most finitists accept the absolute goodness of God but reject omnipotence.^[3]
