                      WHY JEHOVAH GAVE US LAW

                      Exodus- 20: 1-17; Deuteronomy – 24: 1-22; 27: 11-26
                      Leviticus – 18 : 16-24

Jehovah gave us law to save ourselves from sin
If we avoid from sin we can Jehovah’s loving approval win
Through applying Jehovah’s law we can make a righteous and strong society
Because if we have Jehovah’s approval we have real security
We can recognise through Jehovah’s law, what is good and true
We can save ourselves from badness and we can Jehovah’s will do

Jehovah’s law teaches us goodness and righteousness
This is Jehovah’s true love for His creation, to give them happiness
Since Jehovah’s law is based on love, to save us from Satan’s snare
If we deeply meditate about Jehovah’s law, we can find it is for our welfare
Jehovah’s law tells us what are humans’ limitations
Through Jehovah’s law we can give proper respect to our relations

In law Jehovah helped us how we respect our neighbour’s right
So we should not make our selfish desires our delight
With His law Jehovah made a border around us for our safety
We can save ourselves from wickedness through applying Jehovah’s law so lofty
Through Jehovah’s law we can save ourselves from false worship
if we are in true worship with Jehovah our Creator we can make friendship
