What does the Bible say about the Father's will?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible teaches that the Father's will is for all whom He has given to the Son to come to Him and receive eternal life.

The Father's will, as articulated in John 6, centers around the sovereignty of God in salvation. Jesus states, 'All that the Father giveth me shall come to me' (John 6:37). This emphasizes that those whom the Father has chosen and given to the Son will inevitably come to faith in Christ and will not be lost. The will of the Father is not arbitrary; it is purposeful and effective, ensuring the salvation of His chosen people. Furthermore, Jesus confirms, 'I came down from heaven not to do mine own will, but the will of Him that sent me' (John 6:38), showing the unity of purpose between the Father and the Son in the plan of redemption.
