No, because if he already knows what will happen before hand there there was no free will to make that decision in the first place. You can either have one or the other.
Mostly unrelated though, i am apparently 6 years late for this news but it, i like the way the dutch do things.

| God made homosexuals to test their faith! Just like how he made fake dinosaur bones! |

People have too much pride in themselves and live as if sin is more enjoyable than God. |

It certainly IS more enjoyable, hence why it makes God rather angry :p |

May you come to the knowledge of the kind and compassionate God who loves us more than a mother breastfeeding her child. |

Free will and predestination do sound mutually exclusive, but there's a place for both views though. My pastor debunked me after I said only predestination is legit. |

So, in some alternate reality where God permits or even mandates homosexuality, you (being who you are, right now) have no problem making hot-man love to the man you love? You're actually withholding your boy-toy action figure from another man because God prohibits it? You'd prefer to taste some Richards and tack some Cox to your last-name but, because the Bible tells you so, to a guy you'll say, "hell no?" |

yeah I'll respectfully decline because I have to represent God with the utmost respect. Everything God laid out in the Bible should be understood with common sense, so to do it with another man isn't a good look. |

So, basically, if the Bible allowed homosexuality, you'd totally be into that to the exclusion of the opposite sex. |
