[QUOTE="stevevw, post: 74659551, member: 342064"] Moral laws don't exist separate from God. As God is good by nature then his makeup is only good. He cannot lie or sin so I guess in that sense he follows moral laws. But to say that God has to obey moral laws is wrong I think because God is to be obeyed. Jesus says the greatest commandment is to love God. So I don't think God could be subject to this law. Plus because God is God and has the authority to act as law maker he can be exempt from laws. For example the police can be exempt from speeding laws when chasing a suspect or taking someones life in the process of upholding the laws. The same with God when administering his judgement and punishment. So we can't always apply our moral views to God especially as he is acting in a divine capacity about things that we don't fully understand. But the point is the bible says that God is a rightful God so he cannot undermine his own laws as this would create chaos among heaven and earth where God could not be trusted. He has to stand on his word as God be be regarded as a worthy and rightful judge and God . I think God can act within and beyond our reality. This is something we don't fully understand but the bible says that God is omnipresent so I guess he is everywhere. [B]Jeremiah 23:23-24[/B] [COLOR=#00b3b3][I]"Am I a God who is near," declares the LORD, "And not a God far off? "Can a man hide himself in hiding places So I do not see him?" declares the LORD "Do I not fill the heavens and the earth?" declares the LORD.[/I][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
