God's knows and understands all things about people, nature, animals and the universe. See Psalm 147:5; Isa. 46:10; Psa. 139:1-6. The eyes of the Lord are in every place keeping watch on the evil and the good (Prov. 15:3).

So, if that is the case, then God forknew who will be the ones that will accept Him as personal Saviour. Does this then means that some are chosen and other's not?

I am waiting in anticipation.

YES.

God is Omnipotent (All powerful)
God is Omniscient(all knowing)
God is Omnipresent( Everywhere)
God is Omni-benevolent (All loving/caring)

I believe that God knows but he has created us with freewill. He knows who will choose him and those who will reject him. His grace and mercy is available to all.

His grace is sufficient. I choose Christ today and always.

In Islam we also believe that God (Allah) is Omniscient. We also believe that one of His names is The All-Knowing.
When we think about free will we must know that: 1-God created everything, 2- He is completely just, and 3- He is not simular to any of His creations; He can see, but His sight is not restricted like ours, there is nothing like Him.
God is not restricted by time, or space. While we would have to wait to see who will enter Paradise, and what our next action will be, He does not. He is Perfect, He is complete.

Exactly.

What Christians don't face is that the presence of Prophesy in the bible indicates that the future is fixed like the past. There are millions and millions of things that have to go just right in order for prophesy to be fulfilled.

In order for Judas to fulfill prophesy and betray Jesus, he had to be born, his parents had to be born, their parents and so on. Each life had to go exactly right, so that Judas could even exist, then his life had to go perfectly so that he would meet, fell the way he did, and betray Jesus. There are far too many tiny factors that could have gone differently and completely changed Judas' path, negating prophesy.

Therefore, according to the Bible, all actions are fixed, there is no free will, and God is cruel.

God knows the end of the Universe and every thing that happens . God is outside of time, in another dimension. It doesn't mean He has chosen ..He just knows who will chose Him.

it is universal in philosophy because of the fact the classic "difficulty of Evil". the only reason it remained an energetic, workable, "difficulty" for such numerous years is by the skill of the church in Western Society. the only logical question on your answer is "no". This answer, besides the undeniable fact that, heavily isn't common via Christians and different theists, because of the fact they are consistently prepared to step outdoors of the parameters of formal good judgment via asserting something like, "properly, there is not any way we would desire to all understand what God's intentions are." "we gained't see the great image." and so on. To be a Christian is to settle for specific concerns on faith, whether or no longer they are illogical.

Yes. But God did not do the selecting, we did. Just because God knows what we are going to do, doesn't mean we are void of making the right choices or free will.

Actually you have it right

Some are chosen and some are not

You know your bible.

But we do not know who will and who won't
