A Balanced View of God’s Love. Part [3] 12/03/2025 (Evening thought)

Romans 7:12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.

The law on adultery, if carried out, would also tend to preserve the integrity of the marriage institution, it will keep husbands from cheating on their female wives, and the brother in question will not have to sweat bricks if and when the wife picks up his phone by mistake. Hence the reason why the Bible says that the law is holy and just and good, because it came from Christ to us as the ultimate document of love, having the good and well-being of every person in mind.

It was never given to restrict your liberties, nor to deprive anyone of that which is for your own good. The same is true as pertains to God’s instructions on diets and foods, for whenever you read in the Bible that The Lord says do not eat such and such, He isn’t saying so to spoil your party, or to prevent you from having that which is good. The instruction is coming in from the springboard of love, and it was given in uprightness and with the best of intentions.

And any individual living on planet earth who understands and follows His instructions would find out very quickly, that it was love that drove God to give such instructions. Take for instance, the law on porky, which instructs us not to eat or touch it. If and when carried out or obeyed will put persons in a much better place as it pertains to your health and well-being. Leprosy in Bible times was often caused by eating porky.

Matthew 8: 30 And there was a good way off from them a herd of many swine feeding. 31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!

A Balanced View of God’s Love. Part [2] 12/02/2025 (Morning thought)

Exodus 34:7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation.

When you get a chance, check out the ten commandments which God has given to humanity, and see if any of them were given to make us worse off than we are. The law which says you shall not bear false witness, if carried out, and obeyed would prevent the many conspiracy theories and lies with which persons are bombarded every day, and it will prevent misleading labels from being placed on products which have to be recalled ever so often.

The law which says honor thy father and thy mother would cause children to respect their parents and it would prevent some 6 year olds from shooting their teachers. It would also move children to take care of their aging parents, when on account of their failing health, they can no longer fend for themselves. The law which says thou shall not covet, if carried out, would prevent countries from bullying others to take their resources.

And it would prevent judges from taking bribes from the rich, and the infamous, to get a favorable outcome. The law which says you shall not commit adultery, if carried out and obeyed as it should, would prevent some persons from trafficking young underage girls, and thus preclude the need for any hush money to be paid, to keep them quiet.

 Leviticus 20:10 And the man that commits adultery with another man's wife, even he that commits adultery with his neighbor's wife, the adulterer and the adulteress shall surely be put to death.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
