Changes

[[Divine]] [[law]] is any law that comes directly from the will of [[God]], in contrast to man-made law. Like [[natural law]] (which may be seen as a [[manifestation]] of divine law) it is independent of the will of man, who cannot [[change]] it. However it may be [[revealed]] or not, so it may change in human [[perception]] in time through new revelation. Divine law is commonly equated with [[eternal]] law, meaning that if God is [[infinite]], then his law must also be infinite and eternal.

God loves the sinner and hates the sin: such a [[statement]] is true philosophically, but God is a [[transcendent]] [[personality]], and persons can only love and hate other persons. Sin is not a person. God loves the sinner because he is a personality [[reality]] ([[potentially]] eternal), while towards sin God strikes no personal [[attitude]], for sin is not a spiritual reality; it is not personal; therefore does only the [[justice]] of God take cognizance of its [[existence]]. The love of God saves the sinner; the ''<u>law of God</u>'' destroys the sin. This attitude of the divine nature would apparently [[change]] if the sinner finally identified himself wholly with sin just as the same [[mortal]] [[mind]] may also fully identify itself with the [[Thought Adjuster|indwelling spirit Adjuster]]. Such a sin-identified mortal would then become wholly unspiritual in nature (and therefore personally unreal) and would experience eventual [[Death|extinction]] of [[being]]. Unreality, even incompleteness of [[creature]] nature, cannot exist forever in a [[progressively]] real and increasingly spiritual universe.- [[2:6|2:6.8]]

The divine omnipotence is perfectly co-ordinated with the other attributes of the [[personality]] of God. The power of God is, ordinarily, only limited in its universe spiritual [[manifestation]] by three conditions or situations:

When a brother [[acts]] insanely, he is offering you an [[opportunity]] to [[bless]] him. his need is yours. You need the blessing you can offer him. There is no way for you to have it except by giving it. This is the ''law of God'', and it has no [[exceptions]]. What you deny you lack, not because it is lacking, but because you have denied it in another and are therefore not [[aware]] of it in yourself. Every [[response]] you make is determined by what you think you are, and what you want to be is what you think you are. What you want to be, then, must determine every response you make. - [[7.7]]

The only ''law of God'' is [[love]]. The only requirement [[the Father]] places upon [[his children]] is love. Let love then rule in your [[hearts]]. Let love be your requirement and allow the rest to fall away. - [[2004-03-14-Harmony|Ham]]
