God's Only Law (ePub)

This book describes the journey God has created for us and why this journey is necessary. Some will understand the journey, while others of us will twist and distort it for our own purposes, lying even to ourselves. Those lying to us want us to believe there are so many laws created by God and man that we cannot possibly keep them all. The implication is it is okay to break some of them, even God's laws, since everyone lies, cheats, steals, envies, or worse, now and again. So today, we are tearing this veil of selfishness and lies to reveal the truth that God has only one law. God's only law is His law of love, "And now I beseech thee, lady, not as though I wrote a new commandment unto thee, but that which we had from the beginning, that we love one another." (2 Jn. 5:5). He said this is the commandment we have had from the beginning, and we do not need other laws if we would just live the fruit of the Spirit, "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law." (Gal. 5:22-23). This is God describing what His law of love looks like. And He tells us, all the law and the prophets are fulfilled in one word, love, "For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself." (Gal. 5:14), "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is the law and the prophets." (Matt. 7:12), "Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law." (Rom. 13:8).
