The Bible differentiates Son’s will and Father’s will

(Lk. 22:42) “saying, Father, if You will, take away this cup from Me;
but let not My will be done, but Your will”.

It differentiates the will of Father and the will of Son. There is a
false teaching, that will of Father and Son are the same, because they
represent the same God. The proponents of that teaching says that this
verse is about two wills of Christ: human will and God’s will. But
that’s a comical error: From the text it’s completely clear, that it is
about the wills of the Son and the Father, not made-up two wills of
Jesus.

So, the Father and the Son have two wills and the History is unfolded
as interaction of these two wills.

Further, the Bible explains what Jesus meant saying in Lk. 22:24
“this cup”: (1Cor. 11:25) “…This cup is the New Covenant in My blood”.
Now we substitute the phrase with its meaning and get: “saying, Father,
if You will, take away (as soon as possible) the New Covenant in My
blood from Me; but let not My will be done, but Your will”.

This means that the New Covenant are Jesus’s commandments, and He
wants to take them away from His disciples as soon as possible. See the
linked video about how Jesus’s commandments are withdrawn.

Here we have two wills: of the Father and of the Son and two
religions: The religion of the Son is to always say truth and be
faithful. The religion of the Father is love (that sometimes may require
us to say a lie). Jesus said in Lk. 22:42, that He wants us to switch to
the new religion from His covenant as soon as possible.

(Mt. 7:21) “Not every man who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter into
the kingdom of the heavens, but he who does the will of my Father in the
heavens.” Have you noticed that here Jesus doesn’t say “who does my
will”, but Father’s will? To follow Jesus commandments is not enough to
be saved. Salvation is related to love of the Father, instead.
