God’s Law Is the Law of Life

God's law presents no arbitrary requirements to show His authority. Infinite Love, Wisdom, and Justice could not give any other law. The commandments of God are the expression of his own character, and He can not deny Himself. Moreover, God's law is the law of His life. It is the law of the life of all humanity. To pervert it is sin and death. God could not, therefore, teach or require any change or perversion. He wishes man to live; how could He give him a law of death? God's law is the law of righteousness (Ps. 119:172), and "in the way of righteousness is life."
