Leaning on the Highest Judge: Portion Three

Strict Procedure

The application of judgment is according to a strict protocol; an application in which you, too, participate, members of the Senate, and of the House of Representatives. This is not new insight for you; we say it only to close the loop in the matter of judgment. As God gave Moses His Law, so, too, you are empowered to present the law of the land to the judges of the land, as well as to all other citizens of the land. As Moses did not modify the Law of God, so, too, we judges must not modify the law of the land. This is binding even though we may reach points of tension with the law.

When I consider the burden that a judge must negotiate in his or her self during times of tension with the law, my mind reviews the atmosphere of the time of tension that Moses faced, as he attempted to carry out the edicts of the LORD. In a certain assignment, Moses could not fathom how anyone or anything could do it; especially, not him. This is the recap of that time, briefly.

Then Moses heard the people weep throughout their families, every man in the door of his tent: and the anger of the LORD was kindled greatly; Moses also was displeased. And Moses said unto the LORD, Wherefore hast thou afflicted thy servant? and wherefore have I not found favour in thy sight, that thou layest the burden of all this people upon me? Have I conceived all this people? have I begotten them, that thou shouldest say unto me, Carry them in thy bosom, as a nursing father beareth the sucking child, unto the land which thou swarest unto their fathers? Whence should I have flesh to give unto all this people? for they weep unto me, saying, Give us flesh, that we may eat.(Numbers 11:10-13)
