For as many as haVe sinned withOut law shall also perish withOut law: aNd as many as haVe sinned In the law shall Be judged By the law; (fOr Not the hearers Of the law aRe just befOre God, but the doers Of the law shall Be justIfied. For when the Gentiles, which haVe Not the law, do By Nature the things contained In the law, these, haVing Not the law, aRe A law UntO themselVes: Which shew the Work Of the law Written In their hearts, their conscIence also bearing witNess, aNd their thoughts the mean While accusing Or else eXcusing One anOther;) In the day when God shall judge the secrets Of men By Jesus Christ according tO my gospel. IJN! Amen!!! ~ Romans 2:12-16 ~ The Law On My Heart ~ 3500 years ago God gaVe Moses aNd the Children Of Israel the most Well-kNown table Of laws eVer Written. He gaVe them the Ten Commandments. Perhaps the reason Why the Commandments haVe stood the test Of time aNd Why they ring so true Is that they Were Written someWhere else long befOre they Were giVen tO Moses. From the beginning, God has Written His law On the hearts Of All people. God’s law Is Written On Ur heart. Think about It. U doN’t need the Ten Commandments tO tell U that murder Is wrong, do U? As a child when I Was taking cookies withOut asking, I tried tO hide It. I kneW taking something that I shouldN’t Was wrong. The author Of Romans would say, “My thoughts accused me.” It Is helpful that God’s commands aRe Written On oUr hearts aNd In the Bible with the Ten Commandments. It makes each Of Us both aWare aNd accountable fOr oUr actIons. But knoWing the law Is Only part Of the matter. Keeping the law Is What No One can do? When teaching a lesson On the Ten Commandments Jesus said, “I haVe Not come tO abolish God’s law, but tO fulfill It.” Jesus kNew that No One could keep the law Of God perfectly, so He came tO do It fOr Us. Through faIth In Jesus We become “righteous In God’s sIght.” This Was the gospel Or “good news” that the Apostle Paul came tO preach. So the neXt time Ur conscIence Is bothering U, kNow that It Is God’s law doing Its Work On Ur heart. At that same time remember Jesus, the One Who takes the curse Of Ur sin aWay. Prayer... Dear Lord, thank U fOr Writing Ur law On my heart aNd giVing It tO me In the Bible. When I haVe dOne wrong, point me tO Christ Where there Is fOrgiVeNess aNd Instruction. IJN! Amen!!!
