God controls it in as much as he set everything up in the first place. He made all this stuff. And he knew what route it would all go down before any of it started, making any other "possibilities" redundant; and meaning he chose which choices get "picked". Every single one.
He set up a domino rally, essentially. He made some of the dominos feel like they had some choice, when really they didn't. If there are genuine choices to be made, you cannot know the outcomes in advance. That's just a logical absurdity. The information is not available. Saying God is magic or whatever doesn't cover it, if you're just going to ignore logic.
