God’s law is congruent with the purpose of man’s own being! Where is it?

Law is made to define humans thoughts and actions. It purports to regulate human relations.

If the definition of human nature is made in terms of what man can prescribe for himself and for others then this can be an erroneous definition. It does not accord with the purpose of his being. A definition of humans and their relationships ought to deal with man’s nature, man’s reason of being and take into consideration whatever contingents depend there upon.

If humans do not see the ultimate reason of their being how can they define their lives in terms of the reason of their own being? If they are ignorant of the reason of being, having a life cycle, having good and evil as part of their make up and having the faculty of choice and freedom of choice, how can they regulate their lives accordingly?

We can observe human behavior throughout the ages. We observe hatred and hostility, conflict and bloodshed, killing and massacre. Would such being ascribed to the human species are capable of issuing laws for the good of humanity?

Psychopath killers like Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Mao, Paul Pot and Bin Ladden, let alone the remainder of world leaders and rulers, are they in the right position to issue laws and implement them. Look at what harm they have done to humans, to property!

Are Caligula, Nero, Hitler, Sadam Hussein, Kaddhafi, and the rest of them, trustworthy to make law and promulgate their prescriptions for their people?

When humans set up laws and implement them they are present at best the jungle law. Survivor is for the strongest, the meanest and most evil. Machiavellian law becomes the law, the moral code and the structure of human society.

We all have seen what world constitutions worked out by humans mean. Power, dominance, glory, fame, honors, position, wealth and riches, are the underlying principles of all human laws and human made constitutions.

Every nation, every people, every society, years for its superiority over others. All peoples have had their role in dominance and control over others. Before it was the Romans, the Persians, the Greek, the Pharaohs, the Hittites, then the Arabs, the Mongols, the Ottomans, then European colonizer, then the American and Russian dominator of the world.

The United States stand alone in the arena of the world now that the Russian bear is dead and buried. The United States stands now as the master of the world. Is this what the American constitution dictates? Is the morality of the 320 millions of respectable Americans?

China is standing for its turn for world dominance and then maybe India.

Every nation looks for power, dominance and for monopolizing other nations and subduing other peoples to its rules, its laws, its codes of morality.

Look at Japan now, Afghanistan, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and a host of other nations. They are now second class American citizens. They circulate in the orbit of the American culture that of the cowboy, the big cigar, the coca cola, the hamburger and the chewing gum. They are all under the powerful aegis of the American big giant.

America exports its virgin of democracy which gives the one man ruler absolute power and absolute dominance with a personal decision of one person over the rest of the others. Is this democracy?

Where is God’s law? Nowhere!

God’s law serves man within the plan of God. God’s law is scribed in His books and messages to humans, throughout the ages. The people of Noah were sent their own law, and so did the people of Abraham, the Israelites, the Christians and Muslims.

Every nation has its own divine law, but the divine law is forsaken for man’s law.

If you stand on a day of judgment and have to answer for which law you have administered in your life, then you are in a hell of a position! Aren’t you?

The law of God takes into its perspective what the creator of man has created man for. It represents what the maker of humans prescribes to his own servants, His creatures. It represents their ultimate good, the ultimate good of man.

Man’s law serve the interests of this life and divine law serve this life and the second life. It is the bridge for the second life. It is the criterion of judgment in this life and in the hereafter.

Human law deals at best with the short coming of human nature and human relationships. Divine law deals with the human nature and relationships between humans in order to satisfy the ultimate goal of their existence, to do good and shun evil, to recognize the creator of mankind and the universe, to regulate lives according to what the creator of humans have created the human species for.

It defines man, it defines good and evil, it prescribes what man ought to think, to believe, to act and feel.

No human law is capable of prescribing universal laws of justice, equity as divine laws.

It is in the absolute interest of humans to apply the divine law and not the human law.

But who listens and who cares?

Divine law prescribed for humans remains at best buried in the pages of the scriptures. But man shall learn that he made the mistake of his life not to implement the divine law on a day where neither remorse nor remedy are of use, and it will be too late to go back again.
