I’m sure you know what I’ll ask next;

If God knows, before you are even born, that you will make an evil decision that results in your going to hell, why does He breath life into you?

I can’t begin to even pretend that a man can understand God’s plan.

He does what He does.

It must serve his purposes somehow.

My thought is this. God oversees somewhat of a timeline of existence (of everything). We are a tiny point on that timeline. He can see ahead of us and behind us. During that point in time, we decide what we choose to do during that time. God KNOWS what we are going to choose and do, but He does not CHOOSE for us.
