The Law is God-Centered

The modern tendency is to read the Bible only to find out what it says to men as individuals. The Scripture is consulted only to find out what the Bible says to me, about me, for me, and so forth. Clearly there is nothing wrong with this in itself, but it produces a warped view of the Bible if this is the only way it is read. The Bible, God’s written revelation, speaks not only about individual matters, but also about social and cosmic (creation-al) matters as well. This is because the Bible, while it is man-oriented, is God-centered.
