5060 Plan of salvation based on free will....
February 11, 1951: Book 57
My plan of salvation has been determined from eternity but it is based on the human being's free will. However, I do not determine the human will in order to bring it into line with My eternal plan but I insert it into the human being's free will, thus he develops in accordance with this will. For I have known about him since eternity how he will be at the end of this redemption period despite most favourable influence and all possibilities for a change of will. In no way do I have a determining influence. Completely free will brings about all events on this earth. Everything in the entire universe does not happen arbitrarily but every event is based on My wisdom which directs everything in order to lead the being to the highest possible development, in order to achieve a change of will which is the purpose and aim of earthly life. Even the knowledge on My part about the failure of earthly life for so countless souls does not prevent the scheduled course of the individual redemption periods, for the souls have to come to a certain decision, although they also have to fail and exhaust a new possibility in order to reach the aim for once. Free will necessitates such possibilities, which I have very well recognized since eternity and which is why the course of development of every individual soul is planned to the smallest purpose, irrespective of success. For I cannot determine success, although I know about it when I want to know it. But for Me eternity is like a moment, and what is not achieved in one period of development can be achieved in ever-repeating phases of redemption, yet it always has to proceed according to plan, because free will cannot be eliminated, but just as My love and wisdom can never withdraw or conceal itself either and this always creates the most favourable opportunities to develop free will in the right way. The plan of salvation from eternity only pursues the souls' redemption and their return to Me.... When I reach the aim is of no significance to Me but extremely significant to you, because for you humans, as long as you are still imperfect, the concept of time plays a part, thus you can be in an unhappy state for an infinitely long time and thus have to live through periods of suffering which end with the moment of your soul's redemption, the healing, which is My plan of eternity and which I would like to constantly promote if your will does not oppose Me. The healing process can be extremely lengthy but it can also take place in a short time, which, however, you determine yourselves. And even if I know about the success or failure this does not determine My eternal plan of salvation, for I am eternally unchanging, and what My wisdom once recognized as right will also be carried out by My strength of love, because it irrevocably leads to the aim, even if eternities pass by.... One day the world will be redeemed and all beings will be united with Me, because nothing can eternally resist My love....
Amen
