What is the Will of God?

What is the will of God? The apostles, Peter, Paul, and James, all wrote of the importance of knowing and acting in harmony with the will of God that we might inherit the awesome promises God offers. They also warned of the spiritual danger of adherence to cultural norms that are contrary to God’s will. A close examination of David and Christ give a greater grasp of God’s will in regards to the Sabbath commandment. As religious groups adopt non-scriptural practices like gay marriage, it is important to be grounded in the biblical standards of living and have a solid understanding of God’s will for us.
