\"\" It is written:<\/a><\/strong> \u201cWe know that the law is good if one uses it properly. We also know that the law is not made for the righteous but for lawbreakers and rebels, the ungodly and sinful, the unholy and irreligious; for those who kill their fathers or mothers, for murderers, for adulterers and perverts, for slave traders and liars and perjurers- and for whatever else is contrary to the sound doctrine that conforms to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which he entrusted to me<\/strong>.\u201d -1 Timothy 1:8-11<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Christ Jesus:<\/strong> “Woe to you lawyers, because you have taken away the key to knowledge (scriptural truth).

The main purpose of law is to<\/strong> expose sin!<\/a><\/strong> “What shall we say, then? Is the law sinful? Certainly not! Nevertheless, I would not have known what sin was had it not been for the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, \u201cYou shall not covet.\u201d -Romans 7:7.<\/strong> “Now it is clear that no one is justified before God by the law, because, \u201cThe righteous will live by faith.” <\/strong>-Galatian 3:11<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAll who rely on observing the law are under a curse<\/strong>, for it is written: \u2018Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law\u2019. Clearly no one is justified before God by the law, because the righteous will live by faith.\u201d<\/strong>\u2013<\/strong>Galatian 3:10-11<\/em> Book:<\/strong> Legal Fiction<\/a><\/strong> “all stories make piercing, unsettling observations about the American system of justice.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe rule of law <\/strong>refers to the regulation of the relationship between the state and individuals by pre-established and knowable laws<\/em>.<\/strong> The state, no less than the individuals it governs, must be subject to and obey the law. The state\u2019s obligation to obey the law is central to the very existence of the rule of law. Without this obligation, there would be no enforceable limit on the state\u2019s power over individuals\u2026.\u201d (duhaime.org)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe tend to think of the law as complex, something that only lawyers, judges, and legal educators can comprehend. Yet the history of the law can be viewed as a tale of human choices about the preservation of life, the protection of property, the exercise of individual liberty, the fashioning of creative knowledge, and other basic social concepts.\u201d<\/strong> -The Oxford Guide- American Law, edited by Kermit L.

“From the beginning, man has had the Divine Positive Law of life and destiny before him. When God made our first parents, He revealed to them the law by which they would reach their supernatural destiny. He promulgated positive laws regarding man’s conduct to his Creator, his neighbor, and himself, as is clearly indicated in the Book of Genesis. To Moses, also, God gave the Commandments, which were a more abundant and emphatic promulgation of man’s duties as already contained in the Natural Law, of which many had lost sight.” <\/strong>–Catechism of Catholic Social Teaching – On the Divine Positive Law<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLegalism is rules without relationship, emphasizing standards more than the Savior, and laws more than love. It is a system based on fear and characterized by joyless judgmentalism, producing futility instead of freedom.\u201d -Michael Brown<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBecause every law springs from a system of values and beliefs, every law is an instance of legislating Morality. Further, because a nation\u2019s laws always exercise a pedagogical or teaching influence, law inescapably exerts a shaping effect over the beliefs, character, and actions of the nation\u2019s citizens, whether for good or ill. Those who seek to separate morality from law, therefore, are in pursuit both of the impossible and the destructive. The question before us is never whether or not to legislate morality, but which moral system ought to be made legally binding.\u201d <\/strong>-Michael Bauman<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cErosion of personal responsibilities- First, in denying moral [Biblical] accountability \u2026 It has become virtually routine for defense lawyers to argue that defendants were abused as children, denied proper moral training, raised in abject poverty, plagued with learning disabilities, or something of the sort.\u201d<\/strong> -Justice That Restores, Charles Colson; page 62 <\/em>(Charles Colson use to write speeches for U.S. President Richard Nixon; pg. 57<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLike their Greek contemporaries, early Roman advocates were trained in rhetoric*, not law, and the judges before whom they argued were also not law-trained. \u2026 Therefore, if one narrows the definition to those men who could practice the legal profession openly and legally, then the first lawyers would have to be the orators of ancient Rome. <\/strong>-wikipedia   <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
