Imagine a group of people been told to follow one single law, and that if they do, then their peace
will remain intact.
And Imagine that if the same group of people were told that if they break onw single law that
they would begin to waste away because of disobediance to the law, and Imagine that the same person made up a new law,
that was, oh I dont know, something like Do not look out the window after half past ten in the evening, and imagine this group
following this law diligently while at the very same time, breaking the first law.
I have noticed something about this life, that everytime that I break Gods law, such as not paying
a debt back, immidiatley I suffer.
It causes me pain, in my mind and in my spirit, I become fearful, I loose my peace of mind, I get
paranoid that dissaster will occur.
But why, whwy should this happen?
Is it a judgement?
Well! it would seem to follow that if God says that you get peace from obediance to the law..............
5 "Now suppose a man is righteous and does what is just and right: 6 He
does not eat at the mountain [shrines] or raise his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel. He does not defile his neighbor's
wife or come near a woman during her menstrual impurity. 7 He doesn't oppress anyone but returns his collateral
to the debtor. He does not commit robbery, but gives his bread to the hungry and covers the naked with clothing. 8 He
doesn't lend at interest or for profit but keeps his hand from wrongdoing and carries out true justice between men. 9 He
follows My statutes and keeps My ordinances, acting faithfully. Such a person is righteous; he will certainly live." [This
is] the declaration of the Lord God.
