Jeremiah 31:33 "This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel
after that time," declares the LORD.
"I will put my law in their minds
and write it on their hearts.
I will be their God,
and they will be my people. -NIV
This passage is quoted twice by the author of Hebrews in chapters 8 and 10. But really, what does this mean to YOU? Are God's rules written on your heart or do you accept a "higher version" in terms of a manuscript or church dogma? Does your understanding of the scriptures and of God supersede anyone else's understanding?
This was prompted by a discourse where I saw the NT used as a "Rule Book" rather than in "Inspiration".
It's interesting that when we hear the word law, many tend to recoil at the mere use of the word,and philosphize it to death,especially when it comes to spiritual laws under God,yet the irony of it all is, our whole universe is governed and regulated by them.
We ourselves live under extreme laws,be it ,physical,chemical,universal,civil and last, but certainly not least, spiritual laws
We have come to accept and live within these perimeters and it is no different with God';s spiritual and /or moral laws.
Oh yes,we try to deny,defy,alter and refute these laws, in many different ways,but when it comes down to it ,God's kingdom is governed and regulated by similar principals and laws and while in this life we somehow think we can evade them,to many people's surprise, we will be subject to them in the next life, only it will be the consequences of not living according to them while in this life.
We understand what happens when we violate any law in the universe there are consequences and effects,it is no different when we step outside God's kingdom laws and principals.
This is not, nor has it ever been, a fear tactic of God's, as many people associate it to be,but a means in which to truly bless and prosper the people who recognise and become subject to these laws.
We certainly know how safe,rich,full and free our lives can be when we are eating right,exercising,operating within the natural laws and refraining from criminal activity .
So in response to the question, the spiritual laws of God are written on the hearts and minds of man and upon subjecting oneself to these laws ,one automatically becomes subject to the other laws that exist,be it physical,chemical,civil and natural laws.
