[QUOTE="ViaCrucis, post: 75921960, member: 293637"] Different meaning of "law" here. It's like how St. Paul uses the word "law" in Romans chapter 7, where he says, "[I]So I find it to be a law that when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand. For I delight in the law of God, in my inner being, but I see in my members another law waging war against the law of my mind and making me captive to the law of sin that dwells in my members.[/I]" The "law" he speaks of here isn't a prescriptive law, but descriptive one. There is no law that prescribes that when wants to do right evil is at hand; but Paul observes that this is the case, and therefore it is a "law", a "natural law" if you will. And that's exactly what "natural laws" are, they are not prescriptive legislation, but observed descriptions. The "law" describes what is observed. -CryptoLutheran [/QUOTE]
