Working to Prevent Crime
In the book of Job (5:12) we read that God "disappointeth the devices of the crafty, so that their hands cannot perform their enterprise." The great stories of the Bible show that those who intended to do evil often felt the restraining effect of God's law. This effect was demonstrated when there was someone who embraced and obeyed the law of God with understanding and courage.
The Egyptians were defeated by God's law because Moses understood it and practiced it. The Philistines were defeated by David because David trusted God to show him how to fight Goliath. The forces of evil were overcome by Christ Jesus because he understood Truth and was willing to lay down his human life in demonstration of Truth's perfect law of Life.
