I would be interested in hearing opinions on the subject of Man's law and God's law.
Do you believe one must obey Man's law to be in the good graces of the Lord?

Could you be a bit more explicit regarding what you consider to be "Man's law"?

I believe that the Bible teaches to obey the law of the land. Unless it contradicts the word of God............

I believe we should follow the laws of man as long as it does not contradict the laws of God...

In my mind, one must obey the law (at least up to a certain degree) since Jesus did say about paying taxes- Pay to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, pay to God what belongs to God (He said this when they said Caesar's picture was on the money). I take this to mean that he meant for us to follow the laws of the land.

Yes, that is what I meant. So are you a good Christian if you get lots of speeding tickets?
