Of course it's necessary. Your actions are only being known, not planned, and not controlled.
Why could you not choose what you want to do, and still have a God know what you chose?
It's not predestined.
I don't see the connection between knowing what someone will do in a situation, and your knowing being the cause of it. I had a cat that came running every time it heard a can opener. I knew he would do it.. but he certainly could have decided not to.
