My Friend,
I would like to take this opportunity to apologize for my quick reply and not giving your point its due respect.

Matthew 11:27;
27 All things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows the Son except the Father. Nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.
Cee, please explain to me what you think Jesus is saying here, "the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him(the Father)".
The passage seems to indicate that Jesus wills this light to be shown,
You asked me to give my understanding to 'Son wills', and I will try. But first, I need to go to the word 'knoweth' and understand its meaning. Comprehensiviely, it means to recognise (to know upon some mark). So, to me, it would be saying that no one recognizes the Son except the Father and no one recognizes the Father except the Son and those whom the Son desires to uncover Him to. In the end, we do not know God as a Father unless He is revealed to us as a Father by the Son.
The question which then needs to be asked is, 'when does the Son desire to reveal God as a Father'? And we find that answer in the next verse. When one comes (seeking God) towards (directional) the Son and not the Law in seeking God, seeing that He offers His rest in place of that rest found in that Law. So then, the Son desires to show God as a Father through God's salvational plan undertaken through the Christ.
a great example of this could be the conversion of the Apostle Paul.
The understanding taken from this is that the Son desired to show Paul God as a Father through grace and not as Lawgiver through the Law. If this is what you meant, I agree.
Out of respect for you Cee, your answer does not adequately answer or explain how that Jesus "wills to reveal Himself" to the one of a broken heart.
The verse is saying that the Son reveals God as the Father to those who come towards Him (Christ) and not the Law when they seek God in their repentance brought about by the contriting of their heart. So, in that process of being converted (turned around) by the Spirit, we first come to the Light and told the Truth by the Spirit of Truth, that we need this Christ who He is pointing towards. We then, hopefully, accept this Christ and come to Him and then we are shown God as a Father and not a Lawgiver by that Son.
If you look at the beginning of this passage, Jesus is actually talking about the wise and intelligent, they certain aren't broken hearted. And goes to the infants,which are the ones whom seem easily persuaded in who Christ is and what He's done. But in the passage the things (unrepentance and judgment; see the previous verses 20-24) are hidden by God to the wise and intelligent, and revealed by God to the infants.
Agreed.
To me this passage seems to indicate that some need Christ to reveal Himself to them in a stronger or supernatural sense, like Paul. While some others, the infants, weary and heavy- laden, come more willingly. But in either case, an individual needs to make the choice to come.
With me understanding that it is the Son who reveals God as the Father, I agree to this point. It certainly leads back to God doing what is necessary of bringing a yet sinner Home, as He displayed that earnesty in the wilderness.
Another example of what I think the passage is talking about would be the story of Moses and the burning bush. Moses grew in the presence and household of King Pharaoh, along with that he would have received the best of the best, education, life style, statue, the privileges of a prince etc. etc. But look at how God got his attention, supernaturally, with a burning bush and even with that he was hesitant but the event and experience was sufficient to convince Moses to obey God.
Again, I agree that God does what is necessary to lead One to a true faith in Him. I am a strong believer that we are led and once we willfully concur to be led, God will lead us were we need to be so that we are were we need to be in our walk with Him. If we lack true conviction of His reality and yet we blindly place our faith in Him, He will show us that our faith is not misplaced.
If I have not understood your point correctly, please try again.
