Will of God

There are three meanings of the will of God :
# Sovereign decretive will is the will by which God brings to pass whatsoever He decrees. This is hidden to us until it happens.
# Preceptive will is God's revealed law or commandments, which we have the power but not the right to break.
# Will of disposition describes God's attitude or disposition. It reveals what is pleasing to Him.
