No, I imagine one who doesn't set us up to fail a task we are unable to complete by his own hand and then punishes us for it. Because one who did would be unworthy of any glory or worship.
I didn't imagine God in any form of failure. You've failed to present him as anything but. So if you are truly meant to exalt his name, then you are the real failure.
It absolutely does if coupled with omnipotence as choosing not to act is to permit what happens.
Even if that wasn't logically obvious to any body who took the time to think it through. God's Will being ordained long before creation is well established biblically, both in the old and new testament.
Regardless of anything else. God sets every atom in place in perfect systematic understanding of their interactions. To introduce randomness to his perfect system with some sort of "free will" wouldn't even work, since the consequences of Free will would already been known to him, and alterable or avoidable at his pleasure.
Even the act of granting free will is by definition deterministic for an omnipotent omniscient being.
Definitionally. You don't know what the words responsibility, sin, grace, will, fate, or God's nature refer to.
But sure. God gets tricked all the time, isn't omniscient, and is the father od chaos.
Like I said, believe what you will. But the God you imagine is a God of failure, not one of glory.

Oof, now the only God worthy of worship is an imperfect one. Again, enjoy the God to whom men are mysterious I guess.
Omniscience doesn't mean predestination. I'm sorry you cannot grasp this very simple difference.
