In this study, we aim to show Luis de Molina’s view about human freedom and how it is discussed regarding different existential situations, namely infancy, sleep, insanity and ignorance, in his work Concordia liberi arbitrii cum gratiae donis, divina praescientia, providentia, praedestinatione et reprobatione (1588). We also discuss the significance of education, medicine and religion in the development of human being in Molina’s thought.
