Discovering the power of God's self-enforcing law

Nan Tellier

The effort to enforce obedience to rules or laws—whether they be company policies, school regulations, family rules, or national laws—occupies the sincere attention of many people.

Human laws or rules are usually intended to help, to bring protection, freedom, and advancement. However, because they are of human origin, they are not self-enforcing facts but man-made decisions subject to change, needing physical power and/or popular acceptance to make them work.

In contrast, spiritual, or divine, law is a self-enforcing, unchanging fact, revealing that God, good, is the only cause and power and that His reflection, man and the universe, must therefore express only qualities of good. This law is an authoritative divine decree, which enforces itself throughout God's spiritual universe.
