Freewill?

Freewill is understood to mean: ability to choose without restraint. I can go with this, if we are talking about the government not restraining us, or other people not restraining us. But if we are talking about the foreknowledge of God, how are we free of that? Only certain ones are able to come to Christ on those foreknown days. If others could come, then God didn’t know it for sure. But He knew, and we are not free to choose otherwise.
