God is both timeless and omniscient. Of course He knows who will win the race, but He does not choose the victor or declare that the race need not be run.
"Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. - 1 Corinthians 9:24
Your error is in believing those who say Catholics do not know or read the Bible or is typified by the ones that do not. "These are not the driods you are looking for" will not work on all of us.
Peace be to you.
Without God’s free grace, no man wins the race or even wants to win it.
RC think they choose their inheritence themselves. Read your Bible. God chooses our inheritence for us.
