As I read continuously in the scripture, and coming to the knowledge of the truth of God's soveriegnty, I have a question about His will. I'm hoping that someone has some insight. I personally have not done a whole lot of study into this matter, and I'm looking for some guidance.
Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
I see that this word for will in the original language is thelēma strong's 2307. This is not the same word used here:
1Ti 2:4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
This word for will is thelō / ethelō, strong's 2309.
My question here is can anyone expound to me what the difference is on these words? Especially when we compare the soveriegnty of God that says His will, will be done to what 2309 is. I hope that I am making this question clear that I have. Jesus says that he that doeth the will of My Father which is in heaven, but yet we know that God's will is always done. I'm just looking for an exposition on the differences, or where and how I could do a study on this.
Thanks so much,
Jason
