The Creator's will

Hi Muhammad,

I have often asked people how do you know the will of the Creator? I see you have also contemplated that question and found an answer.

A Christian at http://www.voiceofjesus.org/thewill.htm has given what I think is the best answer.

For this is the will of my Father, that everyone that sees the Son, and believes in him, should have everlasting life; and I will resurrect him at the last day. (John 6:40)

The writer Edgar Jones says the will of the Creator is that we are standing with those who will be redeemed on the last Day. He says that Isa made it very clear that only those who see the son and believe in him will be in that crowd.

To believe in the son means that you beliive he is the Messiah and the son of Allah.

I know this presents a problem to Muslims because the Sacred book of the Muslims says it is a blasphemy to say Allah has a son.

It seems like a chasm that you will not be able to cross. Isa said his words are spirit and not just normal words. He said all who obey his words will have eternal life. Not just some of his words but all of his words. He said all who are of the truth will come to him. There are 109 English translations available free at www.biblebureau.com

If you are truly of the truth you will be drawn to his words.

peace
Robert
