2ND QUARTER: LESSON 13 THURSDAY: THE LAW IN THE KINGDOM Revelation 20:14 and 1 Corinthians 15:26 In the kingdom of God there will be the absence of death and sin but not the absence of the law. Just as the law of gravity is necessary for the harmonious interaction between the physical elements of the universe, God’s moral law is needed to govern the righteous interaction between the saints. When God inscribes His law in the hearts of the redeemed, His sole purpose is to seal their decision to walk in the way of righteousness for eternity. Consequently, His law becomes the very essence of His kingdom. So, we have every reason to believe that the principles of God’s moral law will exist in God’s eternal kingdom. The difference, of course, is that those principles will never be violated there as they have been here. TRY TO IMAGINE THE PERFECT ENVIRONMENT OF HEAVEN: NO FALLEN NATURES, NO DEVIL TO TEMPT US, NO SIN, AND NO DEATH. NOW ASK YOURSELF: WHAT THINGS IN YOUR LIFE AND CHARACTER WOULD NOT FIT VERY COMFORTABLY IN SUCH AN ENVIRONMENT?
