Rationally we may conclude from this and many other evidences that we do not yet see and experience God's Will being done on earth as it already is being done in Heaven. That's my conclusion anyway. It is not that the Great and Glorious Creator does not know of or superintend over all that transpires, as if anything could take God by surprise, but rather that in His Overarching Plan we do not yet see all things brought under His Dominion and Righteousness.

Evidently it is God's Will to gather His children to Himself out of sheer love for them, here on earth and in heaven. God is love: "Who lives in love lives in God and God in him."

Allah is pure will; there is no love there. As such he's more akin to the fallen angels. He asks men to die for him, not live with him in harmonious accord.

Thank you for your wonderful insights, dear .30carbine!

Glorious reminder! Jesus said, "He who lives and believes in Me will never die." We've already passed from death to life!
