Maybe to us humans the future is comprised of a combination events which are known ahead of time and events which are yet to be determined, however, to God the future is fully known beyond probability to the point that He knows what a person is going to choose to do before that person even knows himself/herself what he/she is going to do.

Daryl, that's only possible if the future is fixed. The future cannot be different than God knows it to be. If we perceive it to be different than it really is (e.g. it has possibilities, it's not certain), that just goes to show our ignorance; it doesn't alter what the future is like.
The future actually is some way, either fixed or open. Our perception of it does alter what it really is.
Does that make sense?
Those who wait for the Bridegroom's coming are to say to the people, "Behold your God." The last rays of merciful light, the last message of mercy to be given to the world, is a revelation of His character of love.
