The fall of logical positivism and his verification principle and renewal of metaphysical discourse in middle decades of 20 century has caused a good room for improvement in other philosophical fields in analytic school of thought like philosophy of mind, metaphysics and philosophy of religion. In fact, this metaphysical turn in the last third of 20 century has been a reaction to the radical approach of logical positivism and his verification principle. So, in this time, theological teachings and issues about religion again became the canon of philosophical discussions and analytic philosophy of religion find his room between fields of analytic philosophy. Development of religious discourse caused a good room for some analytic theologian-philosophers to reconstruction theology based on methods and tools of analytic philosophy. They established a new approach in systematic theology called analytic theology. The omniscience is one of the most important theological teachings that indicate to the comprehensive and infinitive knowledge of God. scripture is The source of this theological teaching. Analytic theologian have proposed several definitions of omniscience. They point out the requirement between omniscience and essential knowledge and infallibility of God.
