Here is the info I have on "will" in the 1 Tim. passage
1 Timothy 2:4
"1. I exhort, then, first of all, there be made supplications, prayers, intercessions, thanksgivings, for all men:2. for kings, and all who are in authority, that a quiet and peaceable life we may lead in all piety and gravity,3. for this [is] right and acceptable before God our Saviour,4. who doth will all men to be saved, and to come to the full knowledge of the truth;"
*will=thelo translation to will, wish, desire =to will, indicates not only willing something but pressing on to action, to will as equivalent to purpose, indicating volition, purpose, frequently a determination and most usually rendered to "will"

God bless.
how does God prwach it enter action? by anyone accpeting Jesus.
he wants All to accpet him that his desire but some will not.
16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[a] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.[b]
you see it clear he desire to save the world but he made it clear also his action his desire are base on accepting jesus!

"14. `And as Moses did lift up the serpent in the wilderness, so it behoveth the Son of Man to be lifted up,15. that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during,16. for God did so love the world, that His Son -- the only begotten -- He gave, that every one who is believing in him may not perish, but may have life age-during.17. For God did not send His Son to the world that he may judge the world, but that the world may be saved through him;18. he who is believing in him is not judged, but he who is not believing hath been judged already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
Concordant Literal
John 3:16-18 16 For thus God loves the world, so that He gives His only-begotten Son, that everyone who is believing in Him should not be perishing, but may be having life eonian. 17 For God does not dispatch His Son into the world that He should be judging the world, but that the world may be saved through Him. 18 He who is believing in Him is not being judged; yet he who is not believing has been judged already, for he has not believed in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.
