If you ask many
of today Christians what must they do to obtain eternal
life, they' will say, be saved in the name of Jesus
and have faith." If you ask, what (if any) are
God's laws? Many will begin to recite a few of the 10
commandments, Most are familiar with "thou shaft
not murder, thou shaft not commit adultery, and Thou
shall not Steal, " (Ex. 20)
But most will say that the other laws that are mentioned
in "The Old Testament" were done away with
and we as human beings don't have to abide by those
laws anymore, They have been told by their preachers
that Jesus nailed all of those to the cross. Now all
you have to do is believe in your heart and confess

mouth that God raised
Jesus from the dead and you shall be saved, Doesn't that sound
just a bit too easy for too gift of eternal life? If we stop
and think for minute about the laws that are set up to govern
the land and the need for there to be laws, we must ask ourselves
wouldn't a God who created man and set him up to rule the
world give him guidelines to follow in order to do so, effectively
but most of all righteously?
THE
LAWS Of MAN
The United States of America has a governing system set up
to guide ifs nation and the citizens who live therein. The
Constitution being the over the overall dictatorial, governs
the entire nation. Trickling down from the Constitution are
the federal laws, state laws, and local laws. There are also
agents set in place to enforce these laws. On the Federal
level there is the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI),
and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). On the State level
there are Senators for every state representing The Republican
and the Democratic parties. We also have Governors for every
state. On the Local level there are Mayors for every slate,
and police officers for every city. All put in place to enforce
the laws set forth by man. And the citizens of America follow
these laws (most often) and understand the need for them;
when it comes to the laws of our Heavenly Father well, that's
another story.
People don't think that the Creator of all things has the
right to impose laws and stipulations on His creation. That's
deep, I think that is because men can't see YAH so there is
no fear. But mankind fears the enforcers of the Man made laws
because we can see them. All of us are guilty of speeding
in our cars. But when we see a police Car, what do we do?
We slow down, stare in our rearview mirrors to see if he is
coming after us for fear of the repercussions. And if we do
get caught, we beg and plead for mercy.
Why don't we do that with YHWH? Why aren't we afraid to break
his laws, understanding that the penalty of sin is death?
VVhy don't we beg and plead for His mercy knowing that we
don't have to look over our shoulders because we have been
caught for He sees all things?

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?
shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution,
or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
