I just don't get how we can have free will in a universe where God already knows what will happen because that means it was always going to happen. [Spirituality & Religion]

Your eyes saw me before I was put together. And all the days of my life were written in Your book before any of them came to be.

Psalms 139:16

If everything i'll ever do is written down before i'm even born, then how do i actually have free will rather than just the illusions that i am acting under free will along a path set before me?

I like this article. It sums up the conclusions I came to myself a while about about God not being able to have free will either.

Hmm that's a very interesting perspective on it. I hadn't thought about it that way.
