Hello, my name is Paul, and I am the voiceover for a ministry provided to you by Jim Pugh at God is Government called Your Daily Bread, taken from Christ's teaching of the Lord's Prayer in Matthew chapter 6, verse 11. This is a daily devotion ministry focused not only on uplifting Scripture, but Scripture that will grow your spiritual connection with Christ. We hope that you receive these devotions to uplift you, encourage you, but most importantly, advance your knowledge base of the Holy Scriptures. Today's focused discussion will be on understanding the law of cause and effect. The law of reality provides us with our ability to co-create our world using the attributes given to us by our universal source creator in the form of our spirit. It also gives us the freedom of thought for ourselves and choosing the way we wish to live this life experience. However, this freedom given to us also is governed by the law of cause and effect. It is the teachings in the ancient texts that provide us the two principles of life, the law which is impersonal, and the spirit which is personal. When we obey the spirit, we can only do or think good, and good alone can follow. When we wander away and do evil, the law, which is neither good nor evil, but is simply law, must bring upon us the logical result of our thoughts and acts. In the ancient writings and biblical translations, we are told that it was Moses that was given the laws of cause and effect by God Himself. Moses, the great lawgiver, took the principles and regulations provided to him by source and gave them to the people, which were called the law of Moses, which includes the moral laws identified in the Ten Commandments. Our code of judicial laws today is based largely upon these same principles and regulations which he announced. The reason these laws have sustained themselves from ancient times through today is because Moses taught a universal law, an eternal verity which remains the same, yesterday, today, and forever. The law of cause and effect was taught to us by Moses. It was through the teachings of Jesus that completed the laws from Moses. Taken together, they reveal the universal presence of love and the universal necessity of law. Stepping back and looking from the beginning, we are told that God's name in the ancient Hebrew language was Yahweh, YHVH, and the chemical equivalent elements of the universe is hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen, pure gases and pure energy, was spirit. In this form, the spiritual form of source, he governed himself by his principle of spirit, the law of the spirit. It was in this form that all creation occurred. The universal energy source, God, invisible essence, yet of itself and not of form, a conscious intelligence which we call spirit, that through the word of the spirit all is created. This law is a reactive law which responds to this conscious intelligence, spirit, towards a substance ready to take form through the word of the spirit. How do we know about this? In the Torah and biblical translations, in Genesis 1 verse 1, we are told that, in the beginning, God created heaven and earth, and the earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. And God said, This passage of Scripture is the fundamental belief of every religious faction. If we don't believe in this, then we don't believe that God exists at all. Given the fact that our source does exist, then we move on in the law of creation, which for God was used to affect creation itself. The key factor here is that when God breathed the gift of life into each of us, he gave us himself in our bodies, and, in doing so, gave us the powers of him to create the world around us through the law of creation. With any creation comes the reality of it. When God created the heavens and earth, he looked upon his creation and said it was good. He looked at the reality of what was created and said it was good. What this tells us is that what he created, or whatever we create, we are in effect creating reality. Thus, in creation, a reality is created for all to see. This is the law of reality. Bundled up within this law of reality, and the how, laws, creation occurs, lies a long list of principles and regulations that we have been given to understand the process of creation and building our realities. For in each creation, another reality is created as well. It is in the relationship between the law of creation and the law of reality where we get the principles of cause and effect. For whatever it is that we cause to happen, there is always an effect. The how of the cause and what of the effect is a direct result of the detailed principles between the relationship of the law of reality and the law of cause and effect. For whatever we cause to be created, reality, there is an effect on something else. It may be a new reality itself. It may be in the infliction of pain that we affect with injury on someone else. It may be that we create the giving of love and charity to someone else, that in return, we can receive back love and charity. The cause of giving is the effect of receiving. Or it might be that through our thoughts and visualization, we have asked for something, and some point later in time, the thing we asked for is manifested in our lives. Whatever we might create, a new reality exists, and in the act of creation and through the reality of its creation, the cause of the creation has an effect on us individually and the universe as a whole. Wow. Can you begin to imagine the power that has been given to us in the whole creation process? Yes, we have such creative power, but what has failed us is the closed mind, which we all develop through the teachings of other physical beings generation after generation. It is not until we open our minds to the truth we already know and have inside us that this power can be unleashed to create the world of our dreams, our thoughts, and our desires. Given this foundation of understanding, we will move on from the creation to the detailed life principles provided through our source. We pick up these principles once again with the historical writings, Kabbalah and Torah, and the biblical translations many of us received our teaching from. Within most fields of study, the elevation of some principle of that field to the status of law usually takes place after a very long time, during which the principle is used and tested and verified. The ancient writings of the Kabbalah, Torah, and even the biblical translations by King James all tell us of life principles. The authors and scientists who have studied the principles of life, which have made discoveries of a particular cause and effect of these principles, which they have called laws. While we have used the words principles and regulations and law interchangeably in the preceding pages, to better see the correlation between them, we will only speak of laws from this point forward. In every law we address from this point forward, it is critical to understand that each law has as its root within the foundational laws, creation laws, of the law of the spirit, the law of creation, the law of reality, and the law of cause and effect. As you review the upcoming laws, you will be able to clearly identify the relationship of them to the four foundational laws. We are going to use the King James Translation as our point of reference in the next several laws. We will be specifically looking at the first five chapters of the biblical translation: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, which were translated from the first five books of the Torah with the same book names. We are told that the Torah, from Jewish tradition, was revealed to Moses at Mount Sinai by God himself in and about 1315 BCE. The next several principles of God begin with the law of knowledge and come from the story of Adam and Eve, known as the story of the Garden of Eden. The story begins in Genesis 1.26 and continues through Genesis 3.24. Many of us think of the story of Adam and Eve as the fall from grace of God. When I attended church in my childhood years, I listened to preachers continue to state that what happened here was that Adam and Eve sinned against God and was punished by death, and that because Adam and Eve sinned against God, we all would be cursed and punished. I was also taught that atonement was only available through the acceptance of Jesus Christ as our Saviour, in asking for our forgiveness of sins, as stated in John 3.16. For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. In man, God gave him the attributes of God, which was the ability to have thoughts and free will to make decisions. How do we see this in the story of Adam and Eve? In Genesis 1.28, we find that God told Adam to go forth and be fruitful and multiply and replenish the earth and subdue it. These words speak of having knowledge and thought processes to be able to subdue the earth. Nowhere does God tell man how or when to do these activities, but just to do them. Therefore, the how and when were of man to determine, another support of the ability to think, and more importantly supports man having free will to determine the how and when that these tasks were to be performed. This is the divine magna carta for all true scientific and material progress. Man began with a mind that was perfect in its finite capacity for learning. He did not begin knowing all the secrets of the universe. He is commanded to subdue the earth or to acquire a knowledge of and mastery over his material environment, to bring the earth's elements into the service of man. Wow, how many principles did we just identify here in this one single verse? Almost every one of the principles that govern our lives is set forth here. While each of these principles will be further clarified in later writings, it is here where they all began. Thank you for joining us in this exploration of understanding the law of cause and effect.
