Not referring to Gentiles, but the remnant of Jews during Jacob's trouble.

The Bible teaches Omniscience.

How does God prophecy things before they come to pass?

God has determined certain things to come to pass and there is nothing that can be done about it. That's prophecy. God has not determined everything to come to pass.

Yes, just as we were once dead, being in Adam, we have been made alive in Christ through faith, having been called of God through the Gospel unto salvation.

That's still referring to the Jews . We come in when Jesus prays for those that will believe because of their preaching . John 17 . Jesus Then prays for the world .

I do hate false doctrine, dispensationalism's (Pre-Trib) rapture and (Dual Covenant) theology would be on the list.

In this sense He has.

God has determined to allow some things

God has determined to restrain some things

God has determined to cause some things.

Nothing happens outside God’s Sovereignty.

But you are reading Calvinism into everything except your views. Everyone here who disagrees with you on something is a Calvinist in part or in whole.

There are actually relatively few people that are truly Calvinists. Western Christianity is very humanistic.

That’s not the issue
the issue is your hate has you false accusing and misinterpreting what others believe
Jesus did not go around misrepresenting other people like you are

Well until the forth century ( Augustine) we didn't really have this problem.
