You were chosen in Him before the foundation of the world, or born again before you were born?
Great illustration, as it's a core requirement when dissecting the true meaning of an issue.
If God chooses who will be saved,and not saved,in the beginning with no choice on the part of the people,then answer this question.
Why did God put people on earth that go through suffering,and pain,and problems,if their fate is already given them in the beginning,and they have no choice concerning it.
For God could of created them all as He did Adam and Eve,and have them dwell with Him,and cut out the middle man,the earth,and the result would be the same.
For there would be no purpose for the earth if God chooses in the beginning.
For those that God chose have no choice but to choose the truth,and would be robots,seeing no other alternative.
And the ones God did not choose have no choice,but to deny the truth,and would be robots,seeing no other alternative.
So why would God not cut out the middle man,the earth,with the suffering,and pain,and troubles,create people without a choice to dwell with Him,and do not create those that would of not been chosen.
For the result is the same.For if God did not create the earth,and created them He chose to be with Him,having no choice,and did not create those He would not choose to be with Him,having no choice,would be the same as God creating the earth and choosing those to dwell with Him,having no choice,and not choosing the ones to not dwell with Him,having no choice,and the result and condition would be the same.
If they have no choice,whether the earth is created,or not,makes no difference for they have no choice,so the result,and condition would be the same,so why would God create the earth,and put people on it,that would go through suffering,pain,and troubles,if the result is the same,for the earth would serve no purpose,and God is not vain.
It appears that people are not understanding the scriptures,for the fact that we are on earth testifies that God did give us a choice,and predestined means that God already had the plan to give people salvation before He laid down the foundation of the world,not that He chooses who will be saved in the beginning,the same as the Lamb was slain from the foundation of the world,and the prophets blood shed from the foundation of the world,although they were future events.
For God calls things that have not happened yet,as though they already happened,for if it is a plan of God to happen in the future it is the same as if it happened in the beginning,for it will surely come to pass with no hindrance.
And God said He wants all people to repent,come to the knowledge of the truth,and be saved,and the Spirit and bride say,anybody can have that salvation,and Jesus lights every person that comes in to this world.
And many are called,but few are chosen,so God does the calling and choosing on earth,and if God chose in the beginning then why is He calling many,but few are chosen,and why is God working in their life but they are not chosen.
And no person can say Jesus is Lord,but by the Holy Ghost,but not all who say Jesus is Lord will dwell with Jesus,so why is God working in their life if they cannot be chosen,because many are called,but few are chosen.
God choosing in the beginning without people having a choice would make no sense for the earth to be created,and people put on the earth.
But if we have a choice then it makes sense.
Why did God put people on earth that go through suffering,and pain,and problems,if their fate is already given them in the beginning,and they have no choice concerning it.
For God could of created them all as He did Adam and Eve,and have them dwell with Him,and cut out the middle man,the earth,and the result would be the same.
For there would be no purpose for the earth if God chooses in the beginning.
For those that God chose have no choice but to choose the truth,and would be robots,seeing no other alternative.
And the ones God did not choose have no choice,but to deny the truth,and would be robots,seeing no other alternative.
So why would God not cut out the middle man,the earth,with the suffering,and pain,and troubles,create people without a choice to dwell with Him,and do not create those that would of not been chosen.
For the result is the same.For if God did not create the earth,and created them He chose to be with Him,having no choice,and did not create those He would not choose to be with Him,having no choice,would be the same as God creating the earth and choosing those to dwell with Him,having no choice,and not choosing the ones to not dwell with Him,having no choice,and the result and condition would be the same.

I'm glad you have a version of choice. However, recently somewhere you mentioned you hadn't read Genesis for years (since you were young). I hope and pray you get back into the Word and read it through regularly, increasing your knowledge, doctrine, soundness &c.

What does that symbol I highlighted in bold mean?
& means 'and'. So when he uses '&c', he's really meaning 'and see' I am always rite. Don't be fooled by him. I know every trick he has. All one of them.
This is twice(2) you've asked this.
2x37=74
7 means completion
4 is 1/10th of 40

So have you been a Christian since you were a child, or or from before you were born? Because they are two completely different things, and no Bible says that anyone is born again of the Spirit of God before they are born into this world, which is what your answer implied. It seems you are unaware of the fact that repentance and belief are requirements.
