He simply knows the numbers. Knowing the numbers doesn't affect which numbers are drawn. But any other combination of numbers are impossible because his foreknowledge is based upon what will happen/happened not because of his knowledge of what will happen. His knowledge of "x" is because "x" happened. His knowledge of your act is secondary to your act. If your act is"y" his knowledge of your act is "y". If your act is "z" his knowledge of your act is "z".

If His knowledge is "z" your act cannot be "x".  Your act can only be "z" because once you do "z" he knows it.

Conclusions (Heaven/Hell) are based upon data (your actions.) If the data doesn't support the conclusion then the concludion is wrong. God doesn't make wrong conclusions. If his conclusion is I will go to Hell then his conclusion is based upon what he knows I did in the future after I did it. Therefore, I can't do anything to change God's conclusion because that would prove God wrong.

Sooooo close.

It's not a conclusion, it's knowledge of an event after it's happened. Like you said, this "is based upon what he knows I did in the future after I did it." You're looking at it as A, B, C. A is your thought of an action, B is the action, C is the repercussion. You look at it that way because that's how you understand time. A-C.

He doesn't. Your A, B, C all happened, to Him, at the same time.
