I think the point is that He's not limited by time, so unlike us He doesn't have to "wait" to see it happen. Kind of like how I said this in the other thread:
That's how I understood it anyway. Though I guess we'll have to wait for Chad to explain, as he could have meant something different.

That's God as well, seeing us making our choices. Except that's how it is for God at all moments of time. Not just in the present.

"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
