One book project I hope to get to in the future is a volume presenting Open Theism within a Latter-day Saint framework, including answering, not just biblical "proof-texts" but also those from uniquely Latter-day Saint scriptures that some have used against such a view.
One such text is D&C 3:3 which reads:
Remember, remember that it is not the work of God that is frustrated, but the work of men.
However, when one reads this text in his context, it is not talking about meticulous foreknowledge and providence on the behalf of God (the revelation was given as a result of the loss of the book of Lehi--unless one wishes to argue that God wanted such to happen, one cannot appeal to it to support such a model of providence and foreknowledge). Instead, in its context, it must refer to the general plans of God (e.g., the coming forth of the Book of Mormon; that God will be victorious in the end, etc are a "given"; just the exact steps are "open" if you will). Support for this view is found in v. 16 of the same revelation:
Nevertheless, my work shall go forth, for inasmuch as the knowledge of a Savior has come unto the world, through the testimony of the Jews, even so shall a knowledge of the Savior come unto my people
Here, the Lord tells the prophet that, notwithstanding the loss of the book of Lehi, which was "not in the plan," so to speak, God's work will still go forth--that is, the general "plan" of the coming forth of the Book of Mormon and the gospel to the people.
Such parallels the analogy Open Theists often use to describe how we understand God's planning and foreknowledge--God can be likened to a master chess player who knows for a fact he will be victorious in the end, but the exact "moves" he and his opponent will make are still "open" and not "fixed."
