The objections from Scripture fail; the real difficulty: foreknowledge seems to make every event necessary
All the arguments drawn from Scripture against God's eternal foreknowledge, by which he knows certainly and distinctly whatever creatures will freely do at any time, are therefore empty.
We must now consider how the freedom of creatures in acting can coexist with that eternal foreknowledge of God. There is no small difficulty here, one that has long exercised the minds of learned teachers. Since God's foreknowledge cannot be mistaken, what God foresaw would happen cannot fail to happen. So everything happens necessarily, and the human will cannot fail to produce and elicit the acts God foreknows from eternity that it will produce. In that case the freedom of human actions seems to vanish entirely. For how can something be called free if it is impossible for it not to happen, or to happen otherwise?
Latin
XXII. Vana sunt ergo quaecunque ex scripturis proferuntur adversus aeternam Dei praescientiam, qua certo & distincte novit quaecunque sunt a creaturis tempore quovis libere agenda. Sequitur jam ut videamus quomodo creaturarum libertas in agendo cum aeterna ista Dei praescientia stare possit. Non parum enim hic est difficultatis quae pridem ingenia Doctorum exercuit. Nam cum impossibile sit Dei praescientiam falli, fieri non potest quin eveniant ea quae Deus eventura praevidit; adeoque omnia necessario eveniunt, & impossibile est quin ipsa hominum voluntas eos producat & eliciat actus, quos ab ea producendos Deus ab aeterno praenoscit: & sic videtur prorsus perire actionum humanarum libertas. Etenim qua ratione liberum dici poterit, quod impossibile est non fieri, aut aliter fieri?
