I'm no theologian, but I believe that God lives outside of space and time. He has a synopic view of
all of Space-Time. He therefore sees
our future completely. God Himself
has no future, since he is outside of Time and is eternal.

I, too, am out of space -- and out of time.

That is on target. Since He created the universe, He also created time. He therefore can access any time He wants in any order He wants and therefore has complete knowledge of the past, present and future. C. S. Lewis had a good explanation of this in 'Mere Christianity'. Also, to help clarify the concept of existing outside of space and time, one might try reading Edwin Abbot's 'Flatland'.

Yeah, sort of, a better question is "Is there a future?", another one is "Why is there a future?". No one's proved time exists, yet is is a very convenient algebraic aid in physics, engineering and "planning".
By saying prove that time exists, I mean where is the ruler in hand that measures an inch of time?
