Does God Have A Moral Government? (Part 2)

Law Is Beautiful.

Man chooses his belief concerning the hereafter which triggers his actions for meeting that end. If individuals consider and trust that they are created a little lower than the angels, they will accept that God’s laws are good for life. God’s government is designed to equip His followers for peace. Many rattle their sabers shouting peace but are unwilling to observe God’s laws, which bring peace.

Man cannot honestly worship nor pray without acknowledging the Legislator’s Laws. Laws open the doorway of knowing His (God’s) ways, as seen when Moses held the stone tablets of God’s law high above the Israelites. His laws are beautiful to behold. Whosoever embraces the finished work of Calvary corrects the heart to follow Christ faithfully. Divine revelation is necessary to secure any moral influence or religious duty to God and his neighbor.

Divine revelation can only be revealed to those who repent. Divine impartation is reserved only for those that embrace a Holy Legislator’s Laws. 2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.”

It is an ignorant statement to say “moral laws ended at the commencement of the New Testament.” A sincere Christian is led by gratitude to happily obey Christ. Hebrews 8:10- “For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws in their mind and write them on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.” The new heart toward Christ is to love God and man, which is the sum and substance of a true Christian. The common interest of the new man in Christ is to look ahead as a peacemaker. Jesus broke the chains of sin by His death, burial and resurrection in order to free all who repent and confess Christ as Lord and Savior.

All of nature, whether you believe order came to be from “nothing” or a Creator, one truth is undeniable, order is best for man.  Everyone yearns for peace. If you’re in the camp of ‘nothing-created life” you still crave social order.

Since Copernicus, reality has been primarily concerned with objectivity and the Ptolemy system of verification of truth was abandoned. Ptolemy started with man as the center of the universe going outwards to discover reality and Copernicus started with the Cosmos (Sun) as the center telescoping down to man for truth. Modern theorems about life try to be objective and not subjective while denying Divine origins. To me, it would be like a scientist being anti-Mona Lisa and trying to prove it never existed from their evidence of applied science using theorems based on: types of paints used, number of paints, type of canvass, temperatures, pressure of each stroke, types of stokes, its geometry, measurements, symmetry, geodes tones, etc. and applying these particulars to see if the Mona Lisa ever existed.

Their theorems could be accurate, but without the genius of the artist, they will never see the actual portrait or experience its reality and beauty.  Trying to explain life without God is to miss life’s ontological verities and beauty. Mona Lisa is on display for anyone to go and view it. Tragically some still will not believe in the Creator. God is on display in nature (natural revelation), the unwritten law on men’s hearts (natural revelation) and special revelation (God’s Word). It takes faith to believe in nothingness just as it takes faith to believe in a Creator. Biblical faith is not a blind leap, but the subjective evidence and objective proof of a Creator at work.  Below are the laws of the Humanist-god for mankind, not from Mount Sinai, but from their textbook which proclaims “nothing” is our creator. The big bang theory without a personal identity activating the force of creation is absurd and will never bring peace and goodwill to all.

Here is a list of policies from the socially engineered creed of Humanists designed to bring peace and happiness:

1) Legalized abortions
2) Promoting rights which forfeit basic human freedoms
3) Euthanasia (mercy Killings)
4) Genetic engineering (The pig man)
5) Birth Control (The state will decide who procreates.)
6) Federal Programs to Conduct Our Every Move
7) Acceptance of Homosexuality
8) Acceptance of suicide
9) Pedophilia (Which is on the radar to be normal in the media.)
10) Bestiality and every other perversion

Man denying the rule of God is left with only the impulses of their lower cavity of nature to play god. The humanists’ scheme is to bring order by acting as god. The atheists, pagans, Satanists, and false religionists all confirm the desire to be ruled. The question is; who and what laws will govern their life? Without God, social order is contrived by selfish sentiments. So, at the end of everyone’s argument, what is left dangling is which road will you travel?  Matthew 7:13-14 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.”

Romans 1:18-25 “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man—and birds and four-footed animals and creeping things. Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonor their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen.”

The evidence of history proves mankind wants justice and order. All attempts at achieving peace without the recognition of God’s Law is spurious and weak. The strength of righteous laws from our Creator brings the peace we so desire.
