***Does God know who will receive faith in Christ, and who will not, and yet does God create both those categories of men anyway?***

The difference between preknowledge and predestination still escapes the Reformed eh? God creates all men; not all reach out for His Grace. God is not the author of sin. It is up to each man to reach out.

What is it about Calvinists that prevents distinguishing between foreknown and foreordained?

But you didn't answer the question.

Does God know who will receive faith in Christ, and who will not, and yet does God create both those categories of men anyway?
