So you think that the Master Chess Player with plan B, and C and D....... to infinity.....  will fail? I don't think it is a possibility.   I mean here we are postulating from the beginning that such a Being does not fail and then you bring this up? To me the whole idea is self contradictory.  By definition, God does not fail or he would not be God Of course that does not mean we will all be exalted- just that we will all have our place in the Plan according to our faithfulness.
