It is not possible to say that God knows because God planned, because then you can posit an instant in which God did not know.

He has always been God.....always omnipoent, omniscient, and omnipresent.

God elected me in Christ.

Then you would posit that we are just as eternal as God is?

It does not follow that because God is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnipresent we have eternally been in God's mind.

Because he knew you would cross the finish line, or according to the purpose of His will?

Does God's knowledge include that which He plans?
