GOD’S ETERNAL LAW - TORAH

 God institutes law. The Torah. He gives us His law and way of doing things. If we follow we are blessed and experience true joy and happiness along the way. During difficulties we are comforted. If we follow His laws and walk in His ways we have a healthy and blessed existence.

 Deut 28 and Leviticus 26 contain blessings and curses. It is up to man to obey or disobey. Blessing from obedience and curses for disobedience. Man’s reaction to God’s laws releases either blessing or curse. I f we choose poorly our lives will reflect that choice. We all have been given God's Torah as our Code of Conduct. It is moral and just.

 God does not sit upon His throne waiting to “punish” mankind. The law is established. It is spiritual and active in this world. When it is broken, eventually the price for breaking the law is paid in one way or another. God is not vindictive. He allows us to make the choice. The law is spiritual and eternal. Man chooses life or death.

 If men refuse to believe in God and His law, then in time, the law will achieve its predicted end in our lives. We can rebel and disbelieve all we want--the result is blessing or curse. Man chooses--the law releases either blessing or curse. This is an eternal truth and it will always play out the way it is established.

 If man chooses perversion and apostasy, then in time that nation or group will experience a release of cursing. Man is responsible for living morally or choosing immorality. The choice releases the blessing or cursing. Doesn’t matter if men believe in God or not--the result will always be the same. We choose life or death. There will be a final reckoning or judgment of all that man does.

God is slow to judgment and quick to show mercy. It all depends on man’s attitude. These are eternal and spiritual laws. Some call them natural law. It is the same thing. There is a right way of living. Once man chooses to totally rebel and disobey his mind becomes so reprobate that it is near impossible for him to change. That is not God’s fault. Man chooses. God did not create robots--we have a choice. Our way or His way.

When nations become wicked and perverse in their society the end result is always decay and collapse. This is the way of the universe, the laws of God. No one can escape this. This is the way it is.

 God is just. He demands justice. Defy God for too long and justice happens. It is the eternal law. Make your choice. There will be a final Judgment Day as described in Revelation 20.11-15 no matter what any scoffer thinks or believes.
