Jesus verifies this in Luke 11 that 'we' here in this world are Not apart of God's immediate kingdom and therefore His will is not done on earth the same way it is followed in Heaven. meaning we on earth can in fact be outside of God's will. The proof of this comes in the way of Evil or rather the ability to love and embrace our sin.
So, there is this God out there, and He has this "will" for how things should work. But, they don't work that way. At all.
How incompetent is this god, anyway? And why is this "will" expressed confusingly in books written by ignorant ancient people, instead of by some more direct means? What does God have against mixing fabrics, and why does God's will involve a whole lot of killin in the OT, and eternal torture in the NT?
