From whom did the law come? For what purpose did the law come? To what extent must you obey the law?
The Law comes from God. The Law reflects God –so it is perfect and unchangeable in every way. The Law is good and shows God’s love for you. God gave his law so you could see your sins (a mirror). God gave his law so you have a rule for life and show your love for his salvation. God gave his law as a rule for civil law.
Brothers and Sisters in Jesus Christ: 1. It is deadly to disobey God’s law. To disobey is to show a lack of love for God and it shows an exaltation of yourself above God. The exaltation of self is called self-love, which is sin. The arrogant will die a thousand deaths in hell for rejecting God’s law.
2. But what wondrous blessings, in this life and the next, you get from obeying the spirit of God’s law!
3. So let me encourage you to study God’s law, now that you love him. Study his intention! Study how it is applied in the Scriptures. Teach them to your children. Advocate for God’s law to your teacher, your boss, your Member of Parliament. If you do, then they might see their sins and look to the Savior. Help them share in the benefits that come from God’s law as you do. Help them raise praise to God.
