God doesn't fail in the big picture, having a plan and knowing the beginning from the end. But He's also not directly responsible for all the evil in the world, or He wouldn't be much of a God. The human will is involved and He did not create us to be sinners, and then blame us for being sinners and then decide to send some of us created sinners to eternal torment anyway, and the rest to heaven or He'd be even less worthy of godhood than satan.Grace saves because God cannot fail. He saves us before our wills ever come into play.
There's a reason why Scripture tells us that God desires none to perish, knowing that some will. Or that we should pray thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven-because of the real possibility of it not being done. When God commanded Adam not to eat of the fruit, did He want Adam to eat of it? Did He will Adam to eat of it?
