Are you sure that you mean natural law? I ask because I can't say that God's natural law clearly favors anyone, much less the righteous. For example, a truly born-again person getting a really bad form of cancer while an ardent atheist, who is very promiscuous and self-serving goes through life with no medical issues.
Maybe we're working off of two different definitions of natural law? What do you mean by it?
Hello - with just a few opinions,
God allows the sun to shine and the rain to fall on all ... believers and unbelievers. He allows success and/or failure to occur within our world ... and He allows death to come to all - no matter the cause.
One cannot judge whether a person is saved by the successes or failures in one's life ... or by how and when death overtakes someone.
For me this earthly life is designed to be our chance to glorify our creator and savior (Isaiah 43:11 KJV) and earn future heavenly rewards. No matter what we must endure during our life-time it will have been worth it when we receive the eternal gifts of God.
God does promise to be with us spiritually as we face our present troubles ... From first hand experience God certainly knows of the suffering that exists in this world and can give unto us what we need to get through this life. I know that He is real, alive, and knows what is going on in my life from personal miraculous experiences I've had... yet I'm not a "name it - claim it" sort of thinker... perhaps that is to my detriment ... but I just haven't grasped that concept yet.
I have grown to detest sports because people become so hooked on it that
(as if it was a mind altering drug for them) they forget that their souls are lost or that they should be glorifying God while they have a chance.
I think Christian athletes, who display their faith in public, are refreshing ... and that people who whine and gnash their teeth the most don't like being reminded of their lost condition.
