You say, "I was born against my own will!" But let me ask you this: how can one be born against his own will? It is impossible to be born against your own will because you had no will before you were born. Or, if I am wrong, tell me: where were you before you were born?God did not choose to be; He Is."But why punish me?" Because you refuse to turn. You say you were born against your own will, though you had no will, and now that you are alive and have a will, you have made your will greater than that of Him who brought you to life. Why is this?In the beginning, you recognized yourself as not the source of judgement, yet now you sit on the judge's seat and say, "My will be done," and your will indeed be done, for this is judgement: that whoever refuses to give up their own will in the face of the One who brought them to life will not share in His will and in His eternal life.For this reason, Jesus said, "Your will be done." For those who give up their own will in the face of the One who brought them to life, they will indeed share in His will and in His eternal life.What then is the will of God? It is said, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He has sent."To believe is to become, to be, and act. If you truly believe that the stove is hot, you will not put your hand on it. Why then, if you believe in Him, would you not want to be formed into His likeness?As it is said, "I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you."To remain in Him, you must share in His nature, the very nature revealed through His one and only Son: love, compassion, justice, mercy, and faithfulness. These are His true nature.The one who knows and loves the truth can confirm that my words are true, and he will do the will of the One who brought him to life.I am here doing His will.Therefore, turn from your ways, and let His will lead and guide you, and in that day, you will share in His will and His eternal life.

If one of your friends gives you a gift, are you not thankful for that gift and, out of this love, say, "Thank you"? Why is it then any different when it comes to the One who gives life to you? Be glad that you are because of Him. He is the one and only true God, the eternal life that gives life to everyone. The gift of life should make you want to honor Him, not out of fear, but out of love for Him.

Everything else is partial; Jesus came to reveal the whole.The greatest lie is not the opposite of truth; the greatest lie is a partial truth treated as the whole truth.
>>18627941No one was born against their own will. Them not remembering their own willing of birth is not them being born against it.
The Father stands in front of the mirror; the image in the mirror is him, but he is not the image in the mirror. So it is with the Father and the Son. Through the Son, the Father made himself known.Or again, it is like the sun and the moon: if you look at the sun, you will become blind, but if you look at the moon, you are seeing the sun's light. The moon's light is not its own; the light belongs to the sun, and by looking at the moon, you are able to receive it. So does the Son make the invisible Father known to you. This is why "The Father is greater than I" and "I and the Father are one" are both true.
