NATURAL LAW
The Spirit of the Natural Law exists first; the natural human rights derive from the Spirit of the Natural Law. In the beginning God, Elohim (Genesis 1:1).
The Natural law first appeared in ancient Greek philosophy and was referred to by the Roman philosopher Cicero. The concept and the Spirit of the Natural Law can be seen in the events of the Bible; it is there as surely as a canvas in a classical oil painting. It is seen in the actions, behavior, manner and the living soul of Abraham, interacting with the Spirit of the Natural Law. Similarly, Moses sensitivity to true justice, compassion, and mercy for the innocent. Moses teaching in the first five books of the Bible (the Pentateuch) reveals the Spirit of the Natural Law is active. It exists with the presence and the nature of Elohim instructions to humanity. The Spirit of the Natural Law is like a buffer, an interface, that provides knowledge and grace to the human living soul mind. The Spirit of the Natural Law appeals to the human soul mind. It is good to have understanding, to weight up the options. To listen to the voice of reason and wisdom, or to act out on an impulse of the emotions. The human mind and heart can be a receiver, meditating on the Spirit of the Natural Law. God that instructs and guides humanity, according to the wisdom in His word, Elohim. Natural Law concepts. “It was developed in the Middle Ages by Catholic philosophers such as Albert the Great and his pupil Thomas Aquinas.” (Encyclopedia, Natural Law, 2018)
STATE OF NATURE – JOHN LOCKE
John Locke reasons that in the beginning humans lived in the State of Nature. State of nature where there were no overlord State or government to impose the law of men onto their subjects. “The lawbreaker was dealt with one on one, about who broke the law and how. If confronted by a lawbreaker, or catching a lawbreaker doing violence to an individual, then the lawbreaker was punished directly without a third party”. (Wikipedia, State of Nature, 2018)
The same law principles are written in the book of the Exodus, some 1460 AD.
LAWS CONCERNING PERSONAL INJURY AND HOMICIDE
“Whoever strikes a man so that he dies certainly to be put to death.” “If he did not lie in wait, but God let him fall within his reach, then I will appoint for you a place to which he may flee. “If a man acts deliberately against his neighbor, to kill him by treachery, you are to take him to die even if he is at my altar.” Exodus 21: 12-14.
“The State of Nature has a Spirit of the Natural law to govern it, and that law is the reason. Locke believes that reason teaches that “no one ought to harm another in his life, liberty, and or property.” The way out of the state of nature is through consent, to join a society is through consent. The consent takes on to the social contract, and to the law of the society/State. According to the John Locke philosophy of law human’s inherent natural rights when they are born. Due to the intrinsic value of human life. Rights can be forfeited, through willful sin. To deliberately flaunt sin, is to disrespect the Creator of life. God is Holy.”
THE NATURAL STATE
“The building blocks of stable society are illustrated here in the graphic below. The rule of law derived from the Spirit of the Natural Law.
Also, the Natural rights in a civil society derived from the Spirit of the Natural Law principles. The right to life, liberty, and property. The Spirit of the Natural Law protects the people in the Natural State, before the population explosion on earth. Since then people have joined the society through consent, and through the social contract. Responsibly, submitting to the laws of that particular society. It is the rational, logical, linear order of native people entering from the natural state, into civil society with the law-abiding society of people submitted to the rule of law.
The rule of law is only valid when it depends on the Spirit of the Natural Law; It provides the Natural rights to people in the society. The right to life, right to liberty, right to property.
