The First Fiat of God

CREATION

Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the birds of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth.”

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God
he created him; male and female he created them.

And God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth and subdue it; and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth.”
(Genesis 1)

The LORD God formed man of dust from the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.
(Genesis 2)

So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, and he ate. Then the eyes of both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons.
(Genesis 3)

When God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. Male and female he created them, and he blessed them and named them Man when they were created. (Before Original Sin)
When Adam had lived a hundred and thirty years, he became the father of a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth.
(After Original Sin, Man lost his pristine Likeness to God, and his Image of God was dimmed and distorted.)
(Genesis 5)

WHAT FOLLOWS IS BASED UPON THE BOOK OF HEAVEN BY LUISA PICCARRETA

God made the universe to serve as a dwelling place for man, and man’s soul was made to serve as dwelling place for God. One day Luisa Piccarreta was thinking about God’s great love as He was forming the body of Adam before the infusion of Adam’s soul into that body. She realized that God loved Adam before he existed, and that as God was forming Adam’s body, He loved him with a love like that a father has for his newly born child. Responding to her thoughts, Jesus explained to Luisa that while the Holy Trinity was forming man’s body, and before beathing life into him, They behaved as parents do with their sleeping child. Full of tenderness and love, they kiss him and hold him tightly to their bosom; and all the while the sleeping child knows nothing of this. The Holy Trinity, enraptured with irrepressible love, gave many, many hugs and kisses to Adam’s body even before giving him his soul, and They provided warmth for his body by the breath and palpitating heart that They created for him. Jesus continued speaking to Luisa and told her that the Divine Will is the revealer of the work of Creation, and that the Divine Will alone can let man know the secrets of Divine Love hidden in Creation.

He told Luisa that Adam didn’t know everything and didn’t know how many ingenuities and loving touches that the Holy Trinity used in creating his body and his soul, and that as Adam’s life began to unfold, They, little by little, gave him surprises, letting him know how much They loved him and how many secret kisses They had given him.But later, Jesus told Luisa that Adam withdrew from Their Will and by doing so he lost the revealer. As a result of his losing the revealer those who came after Adam and Eve never knew how much the Holy Trinity loved him and the so many things They did for him when They created him.

Before creating Adam, the Blessed Trinity looked at the whole Creation, and bursting with love They exclaimed, “How very beautiful are Our works—but We will make man the most beautiful of all creatures!” And They concentrated everything in him and found Creation within and around him, enclosing in him the sky of reason, the sun of intelligence, the swiftness of wind in the thought, the extension of space and dominion in the will, motion in the soul, where They placed the sea of Grace, the heavenly air of Divine Love, and all the senses of the body and exclaimed, “O man, how beautiful you are!” But, not ready to stop, the Holy Trinity infused within this first man the great Sun of their Divine Will and gave him the grand gift of speech, enabling him with words and deeds to be the eloquent herald of his Creator. And seized by so exhuberant a love for him that the immensity of the Blessed Trinity engaged him everywhere and in every instant. Their all-seeingness found him in everything.

Their power sustained him and brought him everywhere. Their life and motion beat in his heart, breathed in his breath, worked in his hands and walked in his feet. With infinite wisdom, They poured out Their love, Their power, Their Will in him and didn’t want anything in return except that he would love Them and would freely live in Their Will, recognizing how much They have loved him and what They have done for him. Man had always been the ideal of the Blessed Trinity. Man would be the place where They would unfold Their creative work, Their life and Their eternal love. This is the work of divine incomprehensibility, unknown and not understood by humans, who are incapable of explaining it. These are ancient, heavenly mysteries—hidden secrets known only to God the Holy Trinity, before which man must bow in adoration to Their incomprehensible Being. The story of God’s love for man even before creating him is astonishing. The Adorable Majesty of the Holy Trinity wanted to establish man as king of the all Creation by granting him dominion over everything and lord of all Their works.

This would require Them to endow man in such a way as to posssess within himself everything that They had spread out in Creation. Thus, the vocation of man to be king of the skies, the sun, the wind, the sea and all else would require him to possess within himself a sky, a sun, etc., so that Creation would be reflected in him and he would be reflected in Creation and be its lord as God had intended. Man could not be such a king and lord if he had no eye full of light to enjoy and take as much of the light of the sun as he wished, or if he had no hands or feet to allow him to walk the earth and take what it produces, or if he were without lungs to breathe the air, and so on with the rest of his faculties. By not living in the Divine Will, man puts into disorder all the acts that God had ordered in him from eternity.

God loved Himself in man and loved the continuous series of His acts that were to be done in man. And when God brought man into existence in time, He wanted man to be in full accord with what God had done. But such capability in man required him to possess the Divine Will which would give him the divine virtue to do in time what had been confirmed and done without him in eternity by the most Holy and Adorable Trinity. The whole human problem began when Adam withdrew himself and humanity from possession of the Divine Will and Its single act which formed the real, not mystical, Life of the Holy Trinity in him as in Heaven.

He lost a Gift that was Divine, and a Divine Redeemer would have to restore It to humanity, which the Incarnate Word did 2000 years ago. Then Jesus prayed for that restored Gift—the possession and life of the Father’s Kingdom—to come. And indeed, It has come with the life of Luisa Piccarreta, whose writings in the Book of Heaven provide the knowledge of It and how to take possession of It and live in It, thus, finally solving the human problem in a new era soon to come in the Third Christian Millenium for those who want It.

The Second Fiat of God

REDEMPTION

“They deceive themselves who think that our Supreme Goodness and Infinite Wisdom would have left man with only the benefits of Redemption, without raising him once again to the original state We first created,”

thus said Jesus to Luisa Piccarreta on behalf of the Holy Trinity.

———————————————————————-

The Writings of Luisa Piccarreta are unique in Church history and explain to us with great clarity the Original State of Man as he was created by God. It is a matter of Divine Faith that the first humans Adam and Eve were created in a state of holiness, and that this reality is contained in the Deposit of the Faith; nevertheless, that Original state has never been sufficiently and properly understood or explained until our times. In the 16th century, the Fathers of the dogmatic Council of Trent declared that they did not know the Original State of Adam and Eve, but agreed that they possessed Sanctifying Grace and were promised immortality if they remained faithful to God, that they had the gift of integrity, and probably had infused knowledge and certain other preternatural gifts.

The Church has always understood that all mankind was wounded by the sin of Adam (Original Sin) and that Heaven was closed to mankind, until the promised Redeemer should come and reopen Heaven to the human race. The Church has also understood that the doctrines of truth given to the Church, contained in the Scriptures, the New Testament and Tradition, are subject to development in their understanding under the influence of the Holy Spirit, who enlightens the minds of popes, councils of bishops, theologians, mystics and others. So, now we have the most wonderful enlightenment about the divine purpose in Creation, the original state of man, the primary purpose of Redemption, the authentic meaning of the Lord’s Prayer and the manner and time of it’s fulfillment.

The Writings of Luisa Piccarreta, especially in the work, which Jesus gives the glorious title: “The Kingdom of the Fiat in the Midst of Creatures—Book of Heaven—the Call to the Creature to Return to the Order, the Place and Purpose for which he was created by God” is an immense gift to the Church of immeasurable value, because its explications shed light upon great mysteries contained in the Deposit of the Faith, which have never before been sufficiently and properly understood. These divine explications provide the knowledge and understanding which enables souls to cooperate with the action of the Divine Will to return to the original state of man and all that state’s manifestations, to return to the purpose of Creation and thus let Redemption have its full effect even in the realm of Time.

Let us now discuss the reason Our Lord did not reveal the Kingdom of His Will when He came to Earth. Jesus told Luisa why He did not speak about the Kingdom of his Will or make it known when He was on earth. He told her that He wanted to test creatures. He wanted to give them lowlier things than what was given to man in the Creation. He wanted to give people remedies and other good things to heal and help them due to the sickness they had inherited from the original sin of Adam. Man was healthy, spiritually and bodily, in the beginning before sin, and could live happily in the Kingdom of the Divine Will, but when Adam lost this original state of health and happiness by withdrawing from the Divine Will to do his own will, he fell sick and passed this bad inheritance to the human race. So Jesus came as a Divine Physician to see if mankind would accept his medicine and remedies for this fallen condition. And after man having been tested in this way, Jesus would have surprised him by bringing to light the hidden mystery of his Will contained in his Prayer to the Father that His Will come to earth so that It could be done as in Heaven where all are perfectly healthy and happy.

Jesus also pointed out to Luisa that when He came from Heaven to earth, people were very illiterate about the things of Heaven. If He had wanted to speak about the Divine Will and about living in It, they would not have been able to understand it.

So, in the “Book of Heaven” we learn that Jesus began to suffer from the first instant of his Incarnation in the womb of Mary, and that after his birth, He spent the first 30 years of his life, his hidden life, repairing the loss of the Gift of the Divine Will, which had been given to Adam, and did all that was necessary for the restoration of the Gift of the Divine Will to mankind. Then, in the last three years of his life He concentrated on the Redemption—preaching the Gospel of Redemption, suffering and dying on the Cross. And with his Resurrection, He planted the seeds of resurrection of the bodies of human beings on the last day at the end of time.

Shortly before his most sorrowful Passion and Death, He marshalled all the acts of his life around Himself and prayed to his heavenly Father that His Kingdom would come—that is, to let the Kingdom of the Divine Will be returned to humanity at some future time. This was the Pater Noster or Lord’s Prayer, which Jesus taught to the Apostles and from them to us. With this, Jesus shows us that God has not changed his purpose for man to live in the Divine Will as was intended in Creation, and that what God began He will finish; otherwise He would not be acting in a way worthy and proper to God.

The Saints imitated the exterior life of Jesus as made known in the Gospels. Some did so in a most excellent manner, but they knew next to nothing of Jesus’ interior life—what his soul was doing united to his Divinity. The Church has known that Jesus had an interior life, but not how this unfolded within Him. But the time has now arrived for souls to begin the imitation of Jesus’ interior life, and He has made this mystery known and explained in the “Book of Heaven.”

The Third Fiat of God

SANCTIFICATION

The Third Fiat of God will give to God the satisfaction of the realization of his ideal in Creation. He will have legitimate children as his constant companions wanting what He wants and doing with Him what He does. Their souls will flow with him everywhere and they will become the voice of all created things giving Him divine love, adoration and gratitude for themselves and all created things.
Watching with divine contentment these children who live one same Life with Him, God will be fascinated and enraptured at the sight of His own Will reigning and operating in them. Their every act will be animated and directed by the Divine Will Itself, transforming their acts into divine and eternal acts, worthy of legitimate sons and daughters of a Divine and Eternal God.

These children will have the ever growing capacity to constantly receive from Him the innumerable, divine treasures and understandings of His Eternal Kingdom. They will come to know what God was teaching Adam in the beginning and go on to learn and receive the pearls of knowledge and mysterious gifts that were intended for Adam had he not sinned.

The children of the Third Fiat of God will fulfill the purpose of creation and imitate the interior life of Jesus letting God do in them the same things that the soul of Jesus did united to his Divinity, doing with Jesus whatever the Father does just as Jesus did. If the Father thinks, these souls will make his thoughts their own and will have no other thoughts than those of the Father. If the Father gazes, if He speaks, if He works, if He loves, if He conserves Creation, if He provides prime motion to all motion, these souls will gaze at what He looks upon, repeat His words, work in the hands of the Father, conserve with Him all Creation and provide prime motion to all motion. They will do nothing without Him and do all that He does with Him.

They will live inside of Him and become reflections of his perfect likeness. All their interior will be as interwoven with the interior of the Father all transformed and lost in God. Their souls will become theaters for God, who will take great delight in watching the ineffable divine marvels and enrapturing beauties of the Divine Will acting in these souls.
The acts of these elect souls will multiply forever, penetrate everywhere, and embrace all eternity, and God will finally rest in souls and they in Him.

The Divine Will is immense and circulates in everything, giving life and order to all. As the children of the Divine Will enter into It, their souls become dispersed in It, they become bi-located everywhere, taking dominion of all as did Adam and Eve in the beginning. Their acts acquire divine nobility, divine splendor, divine sanctity and do with God everything, all at once.
The souls of the true children of the Divine Will will become the most humble, the most aware of their own nothingness, and they will know that all that happens in them is the reception of the single act of God operating in them, Who does everything in them. There will be no illusions or deceptions or the slightest desire to be known or esteemed.

They will give God full freedom to do whatever He wants to do in them and will be abandoned completely to his Will in everything.
The Third Fiat of God will be Heaven on earth, and God will receive his greatest Glory. All that the souls of the Third Fiat do will be done in the conquering and meritorious mode of Faith, to be continued in Heaven in the enjoying mode of the Beatific Vision of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, where only One Will reigns in perfect oneness, perfect happiness, perfect beauty, perfect order, perfect harmony, perfect holiness, perfect wisdom, perfect power, and perfect Love.
