so Adolf hitler killing millions and destroying all these cities was Gods will?
the man who took a 5 year old from his or her parents and brutally raped them and killed them is Gods will?
the man who kind naps a woman or man, and puts them in basically a prison to do what he wants with them (rape, pain, suffering. torture) is Gods will?
say it is not so

The day I awoke to His reality was marked by a small, scraggly garden I had. I think they were marigolds (probably a feeble attempt to keep mosquitos away. They were yellow anyway. The little bunch grew in, strangely, in the shape of a J (that always brought "Jesus" to mind when I looked at it), except I found even more peculiar that it was an undersized "j," with a little dot on top, and the smallest jot is currently occurring to me... That's how He came to us.
being enslaved to sin, and being able to know your guilty and understand Gods provision to be freed from that guilt are two different things.
God had moses put a bronze serpent out for all the people in the wilderness. The ability for all of them was there to not only get saved, but to trust God.
But only those who trusted looked and were saved.
Jesus said in the same manner he was hung on a cross. so whoever believed would be saved. born again, pass from condemnation to a state of no longer being condemned, and they ill live forever.

Scripture says those given to Jesus by God WILL come to Him. Doesn't really look like there is wiggle room, there.
John 6 verse 37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out.

John 6:
35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst. 36 But I said to you that you have seen Me and yet do not believe. 37 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me. 39 This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. 40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”
we can not remove see and believe from the equation.
