Science and religion typically refer to laws as that which gives us a formula, or a system that tells us what will happen. The law of gravity lets us calculate the gravitational pull between two masses. The law of “being good” lets us calculate whether or not we see heaven. But, what caused gravity? What does it mean to be good? The good I do today, may not be a good thing tomorrow.

We can only answer those questions, from the perspective of the law of truth. Progress comes when scientific and religious laws are grounded on the law of truth. An example in society is when civil laws are created based on the law of equality, a law of truth.

Of course, laws in this world are different from spiritual laws. Our concept of this world has limits, boundaries, therefore human laws have limits. Spiritual laws don’t change human laws, as much as cause revolutions that expand our concept of reality.

The spiritual law of equality causes revolutions and change. But they are not without their shortcomings. The recent defeat of a measure introducing nondiscriminant access to bathrooms in Houston, Texas, is an example.

Stepping back, I can appreciate spiritual law more so, and work to let it guide human laws, rather than believe my human existence is limited to human laws.

The law of love shows the law of hate to be lawless.

The law of selflessness shows the law of selfishness to be self-destructive.

All the good laws can be wrapped up in the title God. We can know and feel the law of God interpreting to us harmony.
