Yeah I get it. He doesn't have to wait to see it happen because it's already present to him. Doesn't change the fact that you will do what he determined to do and you will not do what he did not determine you to do.
It's not what "He determined I would do." It's what He's literally seeing me do at the moment that I'm doing it.
Listen, it's impossible to wrap our heads around it because we literally don't have the ability to comprehend time not being a factor. All we can do is explain it in words, but it will never truly make sense to us because we exist within time and can't imagine a dimension without it.
"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."
