Exactly. He knows all, so He knows who he will save and who will reject him.

Thanks for your post:

This would indicate election is dependent upon not rejecting Him...

I believe this would not conform with Calvinist teaching, re: Election>>Irresistible Grace>>>Salvation.

Sorry, but you've given here only a brief summary of the doctrine of foreknowledge -- upon which there's very little disagreement among denominations -- and the doctrine of election.

You're not claiming (by silence) that God has less elective power than, say, you're average American voter, are you?
