Is time a factor in foreknowledge? If so, then how can God, who is beyond time, have foreknowledge? If God is beyond time everything would be immediate and before him, would it not?

"If God is beyond time everything would be immediate and before him, would it not?" 'immediacy' itself is a function of time, therefore not applicable. The best we can do is utilize our limited language (it can't describe aspects outside of time) and our limited understanding (the same reason) and accept the concepts that the Scriptures reveal to us with the limited language that it utilizes.

God is both immanent and transcendent.
