On Who Is Behind Moral Law

We have two bits of evidence about the Somebody [behind the Moral Law]. One is the universe He has made. If we used that as our only clue, then I think we should have to conclude that He was a great artist (for the universe is a very beautiful place), but also that He is quite merciless and no friend to man (for the universe is a very dangerous and terrifying place).
The other bit of evidence is that Moral Law which He has put into our minds. And this is a better bit of evidence than the other, because it is inside information. You find out more about God from the Moral Law than from the universe in general just as you find out more about a man by listening to his conversation than by looking at a house he has built.
| When we live according the the moral code God has put into our minds, then we learn the true nature of God through a loving and learning relationship with its author. This communion is the only way to truly understand our nature and our relationship with God.
Within this communion, the truth of all things is revealed. This truth cannot be learned or even fully understood without this communion. With this communion, Eden is opened to us as is our understanding of living in it.
In communion, Z gardener |
