All Men Need Laws * .. • Lenon for November 18, 1951 I— ;—i —-J VXrHY do we need so many laws? ’’ Why can’t we trust people to follow their conscience? There are two reasons why we can’t do that: Some people won’t follow their consciences. and some other people have ’’' __ crooked, inaccurate ■and dull cunsciences. — if they did follow them they would be wrong most of the time. ' Why can't we have just the Law of Love? Love is Im- NMBAiJHH portant, to be sure, p r f ofo)Wta • but “love” by Itself doesn’t tell us what to do in any concrete case. And besides, too many people have no love to speak of. •• • - Arc Bible Laws Out of Date? TXTELV then, can’t we get along ” with the Ten Commandments? They cover everything, don’t they? They do, to be sure; but only in a very general way. What we need is something that \ gets down to cases. Surely, you might think, the ’ancient Israelites could have gone elong pretty well without laws. But God wanted them to have laws. They could not be a nation without them. ■ .. 1 ' ’ ' >;\ V ... la Exodus 21-23 we have a simple code which is the earifext known group of laws applying the Ten Commandments to actual conditions and situations of living. Christians are not altogether agreed about whether the laws in Ex. 21-23 (and elsewhere in the Old Testament) apply to us today. The majority of Christians look at it like this: The Ten Commandments, as great sign posts .and standards, are everlastingly in force; the other laws (as those in Ex. 21-23) were meant for that par-' ticuler nation. When that nation disappeared, the laws went with it, just as (for example) the laws of Rome perished with the Roman Empiie. - • • • Getting Down to Cases TJOWEVER, while these laws were not directly intended for us, and are nd! all usable by ua, they are well worth our study, because they are examples of how the great basic principles of the Ten Commandments were once applied in practical living, and they give us valuable hints on the way to apply the Ten Commandments in our own times. Obe illustration of this point cast be peen m Ex. 21:28-35, the Law of the Garing Ox. The Commandment reads simply: Thou shall not kill. But what if the killing was done not by a man * but by his ox? The law ‘goes into the question of responsibility in an interesting way. Not many readers of these lines own ox: n.—more likely tractors or station wagons! But the principle of responsibility for damage, the prirc|ple of criminal negligence, is as good today as it was in 1200 B.C. “Rigfit” Isn’t ■ Sum !?OME of these laws, indeed, could be taken literally today. For instance, 'take Exodus 23:2. first part of th| verse. This says pretty clearly something that millions of people to this day don’t understand. It means this: The number of people Who scy a thing is right, or is wrong, has nothing whatever to do with , the question, IS it right or wrong? Meat young people, at least, have the notion that if “everybody does it” it must be right. Not at all. The Judge of all the earth is Gcd, not a majority vote. A thing can be made legal by a majority vote in a legislature, parliament or the like. But not all the congressmen from Maine to California can make a thing right just by saying so. Vet how many people In our time settle the liquor question (for example) by looking, so to speak, at the scare board! A majority of oar lawmakers voted to make the sale of liquor legal; so “it must be right.” “Everybody 1 know” says it’s aU rijght* so “it must be right.” Every in a while it dawns on seme smart person that the right and wrong of the liquor question can’t be settled, for.a Christian, by a simple counting of votes! for and against. The number of cocktail parties in New York, Washington or Denver doesn’t settle the question. It has to be studied from a Christian point of ?icw, and the big question is not: I How many people do it? But, Is it right for those who arc their "brothers’ keepers”? Is it right for those whose bodies are to be temples for the Holy Spirit? (Capyricbt 1951 by the Division of Christian Education.
