Flight Paths

The same moral law which God has revealed in Scripture he has also stamped on human nature.  He has, in fact, written his law twice, once on stone tablets and once on human hearts.  In consequence, the moral law is not an alien system, which it is unnatural to expect human beings to obey.  The opposite is the case. God's moral law perfectly fits us, because it is the law of our own created being.  There is a fundamental correspondence between God's law in the Bible and God's law in our hearts.  Hence we can discover our authentic humanness only in obeying it.
