Law of God is eternal law. But we who are not eternal participate in it. First - naturally by natural law. Second by revelation of things higher than us by divine law. But Divine law is twolf - there is Old and New law. And bassed on that there is human law.
As for law of sin - the law, as to its essence, resides in him that rules and measures; but, by way of participation, in that which is ruled and measured; so that every inclination or ordination which may be found in things subject to the law, is called a law by participation.
Now those who are subject to a law may receive a twofold inclination from the lawgiver.
First, in so far as he directly inclines his subjects to something; sometimes indeed different subjects to different acts; in this way we may say that there is a military law and a mercantile law.
Secondly, indirectly; thus by the very fact that a lawgiver deprives a subject of some dignity, the latter passes into another order, so as to be under another law, as it were: thus if a soldier be turned out of the army, he becomes a subject of rural or of mercantile legislation.
Accordingly under the Divine Lawgiver various creatures have various natural inclinations, so that what is, as it were, a law for one, is against the law for another: thus I might say that fierceness is, in a way, the law of a dog, but against the law of a sheep or another meek animal.
And so the law of man, which, by the Divine ordinance, is allotted to him, according to his proper natural condition, is that he should act in accordance with reason: and this law was so effective in the primitive state, that nothing either beside or against reason could take man unawares.
But when man turned his back on God, he fell under the influence of his sensual impulses: in fact this happens to each one individually, the more he deviates from the path of reason, so that, after a fashion, he is likened to the beasts that are led by the impulse of sensuality, according to Psalm 48:21: "Man, when he was in honor, did not understand: he hath been compared to senseless beasts, and made like to them."
So, then, this very inclination of sensuality which is called the "law of sin," in other animals has simply the nature of a law (yet only in so far as a law may be said to be in such things), by reason of a direct inclination.
But in man, it has not the nature of law in this way, rather is it a deviation from the law of reason.
But since, by the just sentence of God, man is destitute of original justice, and his reason bereft of its vigor, this impulse of sensuality, whereby he is led, in so far as it is a penalty following from the Divine law depriving man of his proper dignity, has the nature of a law.
>Romans 3:26-27 is about the law of faith/God, not this "natural law" bullshit you keep spouting that isn't biblical.
Natural law is participation in eternal law of God by natural means. Anything that does not meet this definition is not natural law.
14 For when the Gentiles, who have not the law, do by nature those things that are of the law; these having not the law are a law to themselves:
15 Who shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience bearing witness to them, and their thoughts between themselves accusing, or also defending one another,
As for Romans 3:26-27 I apologise, I've seen 2 in place of 3.
So to make it up:Divine law spoken about in Romans 3 and Natural law in Romans 2 is part of the same Eternal law.
>I only mentioned those verses in the manner I did because if you had bothered to read them, you would see the definition of biblical law(s).
If you have read what you quote in context you would see that:
<Law of Moses is not Law of sin but Divine (but old) Law
<Law of is not death but indication to sin
>And not the commandments/precepts/ordiances according to the law.
And if you would read what you quoted at all, you would see that you just rape the text. For text is clear - Moses read every percept to all the people because law commanded him to do so.
And it have nothing to do with Saint that explained why law was harsh, so take your heresy somewhere else
