Truth: A reality show between Manmade Laws and God's Word

American laws promise certain rights to every citizen. However, law books prove that man-made laws are like rubber bands—stretched until they break.

On the other hand, God says He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, as is His word. Is it any wonder that Satan fights so hard—through people—to discredit God’s recorded word in the bible?

Growing up as an African-American teenager in the 50s, the educators painted a rose colored picture of the legal rights available to every human being, especially in that discrimination was outlawed by governmental laws. Nevertheless, adulthood found me continually fighting with literally every 1960, 1970, and 1980, business, corporate, and educational system as I tried to get an education, a job, rent an apartment, etc. etc. etc. Oftentimes, it was those in a position as gatekeepers of the city, state, and federal laws, that protected the violators. The blatant disregard of man-made laws - that many businesses post on doors and walls - didn’t make sense and left me continually frustrated and angry.

Then God introduced Himself.  Almost twenty years ago, the Holy Spirit of Yahweh, or Yah, as some manuscripts call His name, rebirthed me into the life and world of His Son Jesus Christ.

The FIRST revelation at the time of rebirth was both a shock and yet has remained a foundation that has never shifted from beneath me.  He revealed FIRST that HE IS GOD exactly as it is written in Genesis 1:1 in the Bible. In that same instance, He revealed that WE are created exactly as it is written in Genesee 1:26-27.

Over the years, the study of God’s word has helped me realize that man-made laws change nothing because they cannot change people.  And, more often than not, the laws that are supposed to protect us are manned by ahhhhhh-people who don’t necessarily believe in God the Father nor Jesus His Son. 

Given that God Himself used Bible verses in the 20th century to encourage a spiritual newborn daughter with His word that was recorded almost 3,000 years ago , it is confirmation that His word is eternal in its truth and steadfastness.

After years of reading other books in trying to understand life, one book—The Bible—made sense of everything. More so, through the years, I have witnessed the truth of trusting in Jesus and His Holy Spirit as He worked miracles in my behalf in everyday life situations that were beyond my control.

Therefore, the final tally in this reality show as to truth and reliability: 

Manmade laws – 0    God’s laws – 1 to  infinite.
