Ping to Marlowe's comments below: excellent enumeration of perfect, permissive, and ultimate wills of God.

Luke 13:34 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings,

Perfect will

and ye would not!

Permissive Will.

Luk 13:35 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate:

Consequence of failure to yield to God's perfect will

and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.

Accomplishment of His Ultimate Will.
