say for instance the only way for it to be disproved if we had a time machine.
we could observe our future self eating something then go back to your own present time a few minutes later and
chances are would we or would we not eat the same thing or do the same action.

but even still there is the uncertainty principle with things so who knows.

I'm not sure what you are trying to say here. Sounds like word salad to me. Anyways.....temporal beings(i.e. beings subject to time) who have the freedom between two choices will commit to one choice or another before they actually complete the action that fulfills their choice. Commitment comes first then action. Now there might be a time delay between commitment and action. I do not see how this time delay eliminates the choice. I do not see how it is different if that time delay is one nanosecond or a googleplex of years. Maybe if it is a googleplex of years new informantion will come into existence which would cause a free being to change its mind. But God, as you described Him, is not subject to new information so it simply does not make sense that God would change his mind.

If you think God could change his mind on a whim or simply because....then God hasn't committed to a choice in the first place.
