Jesus to Luisa: 

Therefore, there will be a difference of degrees in the Kingdom of my Will according to how much creatures will want to take from Its goods. But the first degrees will be spurs and paths in order to reach the last one. For you, then, who must make It known, there is all the necessity to live in the last degree."

July 26, 1926

 

So the saints of the past have taken from de Divine Will (in which all are inmersed, even hell -see March 20, 1932), as much as they knew. The following quotes point to that: Jesus talked to them about how excellent it was to do His Will, that He wanted to restore our nature, etc, but the time was not ready for the pouring of this Gift: Luisa had to come. In the above quote, He is talking of the different degrees in the Kingdom of the Divine Will. With the following quotes one could say there were different degrees of comprehension of God's Will and His desire in history ohe Church. So because the Gift was not poured until Luisa, none them could have lived in the DW.

, .....since I was to call you in a way all special to live in my Divine Will, to make It known to you and, through you, make known to others the Sanctity of living in It, so that It might reign on earth, it was necessary that I centralize in you the whole of the human sanctity, in order to consummate it in you and to give rise to the true Sanctity of the living in my Divine Volition. Sanctity in the human order was to be the footstool, the throne, of the Sanctity in the order of my Divine Will....So, to the very Life of my Fiat, formed in you, I could entrust all of Its knowledges, to be able to form as many other Lives of It in the creatures. . And besides, I was to do with you what I did with Myself: when I came upon earth, I observed all laws, I submitted Myself to all sacrifices of the ancient law in a perfect way, as no one else had observed up to that time; and after I completed everything within Me, consummating in my Humanity all the laws and sanctities of the ancient world, I abolished them and gave rise to the new law of grace and to the new sanctity which I brought upon earth. So I have done with you: I centralized in you the pains, the sacrifices, the battles of the present sanctity in order to complete it and therefore be able to start again the new Sanctity of living in my Will – that is, the Fiat Voluntas Tua on earth as It is in Heaven.  May 9, 1929
