The necessary consequence, therefore, was, that God must separate from the liberty which He had once for all bestowed upon man (in other words, keep within Himself), both His foreknowledge and power, ...Tertullian does not deny Divine Foreknowledge; nor do I insist on God's overriding man's freedom. Would Tertullian say that God cannot override it? He merely does not want to, -- separates his power from man, -- just like I said in 2202.

I took your comment in 2202 to mean that God's "plan" was in fact, as FK said, dependant on man's decisions "in a mathematical sense". The fact that God has foreknowledge doesn't mean He is bound by man. He is bound by Himself only.
