Divine simplicity
But you may ask, are not many accidents attributed to God, such as wisdom, justice, goodness, mercy, and similar attributes, from which He is called wise, just, merciful, and good? I respond that all these are not said of God in the same way as they are of us. For those names signify certain accidents in created things, but in God they denote His very essence, which due to its all-encompassing perfection and various operations, assumes various names. Because such perfection cannot be signified by a single name, nor grasped by a single concept. — Louis LeBlanc, On divine simplicity

@Sage Ray there can’t be real distinctions in the divine essence. I hold to the scotistic method of formal distinction, which when applied to the divine essence, there can be formal distinctions applied to the energies, which allow for a distinction in the mind, without compromising the divine simplicity leaving it with just formal rather than true and real.

@Sage Ray scotism holds to the same view of divine simplicity as so do the thomist and augustinians. Some minor differences in each sect and way of explaining some things but to its core, it’s the same. Also, God’s will is immutable, so Im not sure on what you’re trying to imply with “we can’t know God”
Charismatic Calvinist
I’m a Pastor. I’m overwhelmingly reformed in my soteriology, lean Lutheran in my sacramentology, but also ragingly charismatic-Pentecostal in my view of spiritual gifts.

Voluntarism
For Duns Scotus, man's will is rational by nature and does not derive such an essential characteristic from the intellect. Just as a thing cannot be separated from its own nature, so will and rationality are inseparable. Since no true rationality is possible without freedom, and since freedom is the proper characteristic of the volitive activity--knowledge in itself is not free, for it is necessarily determined by the object-it logically follows that the highest degree of human perfection lies in the will rather than in the intellect. — Bettoni commentary on scotus
