This episode of The Lovinn Dubai Show covers the Ministry of Education's directive for a nationwide return to in-person learning effective Monday, May 11. We also examine the Dubai Media Office's clarification regarding a boat fire in Al Jaddaf and the strict legal consequences for red-light violations following a serious near-miss involving a pedestrian crossing

2am on a Tuesday. Daughter sick. Bathroom dark. Boxers. Wet stuffed  giraffe. 18-month-old supervising from the doorway with the expression  of a senior consultant reviewing a deliverable. In the middle of it, Tom had a very clear view of his month. Product  launch. Upcoming heart surgery. Ultra marathon training. The business.  Being present at home. None of it relevant. This was the job. In this episode he talks about the version of himself that would have  handled that night very differently — not in the bathroom, but in  the days that followed. The familiar pattern of pushing through on  nothing, white-knuckling the day after, patience thinning, quality  of thinking dropping, recovery taking longer than it should. That's resilience. Absorb the hit and keep going. And it sounds like  toughness — until you notice that absorbing hits repeatedly without  anything actually adapting just means accumulating damage you haven't  fully accounted for yet. Tom learned resilience in the military. In that context, it's exactly  right. But running a business while training, while being a husband  and a father and refusing to let any of those things become just words  — that's not the military. And grizzing it out every time something  goes sideways doesn't build anything. It just costs you slowly until  one day the engine is less reliable than it was. This episode is about what he's been building instead. Topics covered: - Why resilience is armour — and why armour has a weight limit - The difference between absorbing pressure and being built by it - What it looks like when decisions get cleaner under load rather    than murkier - Why the hard week ends and you're not carrying the residue into    the next one - Why understanding this concept changes nothing — and what does - The question worth sitting with about what happens to your    performance after pressure lands

In the “St. Louis Morning Brief,” Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge zero in on ongoing crime concerns around Busch Stadium, where a wave of car break-ins during a Cardinals game left dozens of vehicles damaged, reinforcing what they describe as a long-standing, predictable pattern tied to major events. They also break down a fatal early-morning stabbing nearby, clarifying reports that it involved third-party workers and was not connected to fans or game activity, while still raising broader concerns about safety perception in the area. The conversation then shifts to the cancellation of the annual Cinco de Mayo celebration on Cherokee Street, with debate over whether rising costs or fear tied to recent immigration enforcement played the bigger role, highlighting the ripple effects on local businesses and community turnout.

According to the Minister, the funds are not only intended to support the transportation of Ghanaian fans to the tournament but will also be used to purchase match tickets. This initiative, he says, is aimed at assisting Ghanaians in the diaspora who wish to experience the World Cup but may be limited by the high cost of tickets

April 24, 2026In this episode, Scott, Mark, and Dr. Ray Painter break down the latest guidance on HCPCS code C9761 and the growing confusion around what qualifies for payment under this new technology APC. They walk through key interpretations from the AHA, AMA, and MACs, highlighting the critical distinction between steerable ureteral catheters, scopes, and access sheaths—and why that difference can determine whether a case is paid or denied. The discussion emphasizes the importance of precise physician documentation, understanding device labeling, and verifying payer-specific policies before billing. The takeaway: while new technology offers higher reimbursement potential, it also introduces real risk—making clarity, compliance, and payer alignment essential. PRS Coding and Reimbursement HubAccess the HubBotox LCD AlertDownload the AlertFree In-Office Prostate Biopsy Calculator (Suppoted by UC-Care)Download NowPRS Coding CoursesFor UrologistFor APPsFor Coders, Billers, and Admins Join the Urology Pharma and Tech Pioneer GroupEmpowering urology practices to adopt new technology faster by providing clear reimbursement strategies—ensuring the practice gets paid and patients benefit sooner.         https://www.prsnetwork.com/joinuptpClick Here to Start Your Free Trial of AUACodingToday.com   The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook group.The Thriving Urology Practice Facebook Group link to join:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ThrivingPractice/

English---Seafood - Shāfiʿī - Ḥanafī | Fatwā Clarified | Shaykh Muḥammad Sāqib Iqbāl--------------------------------------------------------------------The video explains the differing views on the permissibility of consuming various seafood items in the Ḥanafī and Shāfiʿī schools of Islamic jurisprudence.Ḥanafī Madhhab: (0:06-1:22)Only fish are considered ḥalāl (permissible) from sea animals.The permissibility of prawns and shrimps depends on whether Ḥanafī jurists classify them as a species of fish. (0:13-0:28)Lobsters, squids, crabs, octopuses, and turtles are unanimously considered ḥarām (forbidden) as they do not belong to the fish family. (0:40-0:56)Venomous, poisonous, or harmful fish are ḥarām even if they are fish. (1:02-1:09)Fish that die naturally and float on the water's surface are also ḥarām. (1:11-1:19)Shāfiʿī Madhhab: (1:24-2:32)All sea animals that cannot survive out of water are generally ḥalāl, with the exception of harmful animals. (1:34-1:41)Fish, prawns, and shrimps are all ḥalāl. (1:43-1:46)There are two valid positions regarding sea animals that can survive out of water:The consumption of frogs is unanimously ḥarām due to the prohibition of killing them. (2:41-2:59)The speaker emphasizes that the prohibition of certain seafood like lobsters in the Ḥanafī school is not an innovation, as similar positions exist within the Shāfiʿī school, contrary to what some "naïve Shāfiʿī brothers" and "lazy" individuals claim. (3:25-4:16) He cites classical Shāfiʿī texts and scholars to prove the existence of this valid position (7:44-11:06, 12:48-12:58, 25:17-29:20).The video further discusses the traditional approach of Shāfiʿī scholars in dealing with issues having two valid positions, stating that a muftī has the right to issue a verdict based on either. (18:00-18:18)Both Ḥanafī and Shāfiʿī madhhabs derive their rulings from the Quran and Sunnah, with differences arising from their interpretation. (32:08-32:15, 35:41-35:54)Ḥanafīs cite Quranic verses prohibiting dead meat (32:15-32:40) and Hadith explicitly permitting only fish and locusts. (32:45-34:26) They also note the absence of narrations where the Prophet or companions consumed seafood other than fish. (34:28-35:33)Shāfiʿīs cite Quranic verses stating "the catch of the sea is made ḥalāl for you" (36:00-36:31) and a Hadith stating "the water of the sea is pure and its dead is ḥalāl." (37:55-38:18)The speaker's objective is to demonstrate that all Islamic schools of thought base their rulings on the Quran and Sunnah, refuting the notion of "blind following" or unjustified criticism of established jurisprudence. (38:40-39:33)

Fr. Thomas responds to an address by Vassa Larin about the term 'Orthodox." Larin claims that misuse of basic terms like "orthodoxy," "church," and "canonicity" are causing distortion of the Faith and require further clarification. What does she mean by "reclaiming" and "clarifying" these terms?

7 takeaways from this study Heaven provides a fresh start. “New garments” symbolize inward transformation and renewed calling, not merely external change. Ordination means being filled and equipped for ongoing service, reaching readiness rather than an endpoint. Anointing signifies overflowing empowerment from the Spirit to perform ministry — hands filled to give and serve. Messiah's work is to fulfill and bring righteousness to fullness, not to abolish God's covenantal purposes. Spiritual gifts are for the common good. Desire prophecy and gifts that build the body, avoiding covetousness that harms others. True leadership requires inward faithfulness. External appearance or position alone can't substitute for devotion to God. The Incarnation and high priesthood of Messiah make Him a relatable, suffering Savior who defeats evil and removes fear of death, enabling bold service. Imagine standing at the entrance of ancient Israel’s Mishkan (Tabernacle), watching Aharon's empty hands slowly fill with oil, bread and sacrificial portions. Those hands, once ordinary, now carry a visible sign: Heaven is putting him to work. This study traces that movement — from empty to filled, from clothed to commissioned. God doesn't just forgive; He clothes, fills and sends. “I will greatly rejoice in the LORD,My soul will exult in my God;For He has clothed me with the garments of salvation,He has wrapped me with a robe of righteousness…” Isaiah 61:10 NASB95 This isn't someone admiring a costume. It's someone overwhelmed by transformation. The “garments of salvation” and “robe of righteousness” wrap not only the body but the whole self — “my soul will exult.” The prophets elsewhere describe this same renewal (New Covenant) as a “new heart” and a “new spirit” (Jeremiah 31:31–34; Ezekiel 36:25–27). The outside should illustrate what Heaven does on the inside. Otherwise, it’s just a show. Messiah Yeshua (Christ Jesus) warned against “whitewashed tombs” — beautifully maintained yet full of decay (“dead men’s bones,” Matthew 23:27–28). Similarly, Isaiah's garments become a test: Am I asking God to decorate my life, or to renew it? Like we studied last Shabbat, the clothing metaphor refuses superficial religion. It invites a deeper honesty: if God robes, He also remakes. Ordination as filling, not finishing Exodus 29 takes that robe imagery and pushes it into vocation. The English word “ordination” can sound like a static status: once ordained, box checked. The Hebrew under it goes in a different direction. The term מְלוּאִים mĕlu'im (“filled, filled up, ordained”), from the root מלא malé (“to fill”), appears in the context of placing offerings, bread, and other items into the hands of Aharon and his sons. This is more than ceremony. The text presents ordination as literal and symbolic “filling of the hands.” The priests stand there with empty hands; the ritual fills them. The message: you are not being set aside (“made holy”) to sit; you are being filled to act. Heaven does not hand Aharon a title; Heaven hands him tasks. This reframes how to think of calling and ministry. Instead of asking, “Am I ordained?” as if ticking a checkbox, the more searching question is, “What has God placed in my hands — and for whom?” When ‘end’ means ‘goal’ The Greek translation of the Torah, the Septuagint, sometimes uses τελέω teleó (“to bring to completion”) to capture this idea of completing a consecration or making something ready. That Greek word translates mĕlu'im in Exodus 29:31. This use in the Septuagint is key to understanding one of apostle Paul's frequently misinterpreted statements: For Christ is the end (τέλος telos) of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Romans 10:4 NASB95 On a surface reading, “end” might sound like “done with, discarded.” But telos in Greek can mean goal, intended outcome, completion in the sense of maturity. A journey reaches its telos not when the path vanishes, but when the traveler arrives where the path was always leading. Within this framework, Messiah does not abolish the Torah's significance for righteousness; He brings its purpose to its full expression. What ordination does for the priest — bringing him to readiness — telos language does for Torah — it names the destination God always had in mind: righteousness realized in and through Messiah. Oil purity and overflow Oil saturates the priestly ordination ritual described in Exodus 29 (cp. Leviticus 8–9). There is unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers spread with oil. The key word here is שֶׁמֶן shemen (“oil”). In the ancient world, oil doesn't only function as fuel or food; it signals richness, blessing, and consecration. Clarified olive oil gives a particularly helpful analogy. The more refined the oil, the more purely and cleanly it burns. Likewise, the ritual calls for “pure” elements to make the point: God refines His servants, like oil, by removing impurities, not to make them delicate but to make their light more clear. The more refined the oil, the less smoke; the more purified the life, the less spiritual “smoke” obscures who God is. Seven and the power of eight Under the hood of the Hebrew original text about oil and consecration are numbers that communicate. In Hebrew, the words for seven and oath are bound up in the same root: שֶׁבַע sheva / שָׁבַע shavá. Like an oath, seven signifies completeness, a full cycle, a pledged seriousness. What has been committed will be done. On that backdrop, eight — שְׁמֹנֶה shᵉmōneh — is connected to the verb שָׁמֵן shāmēn (“to be fat”) and the noun שֶׁמֶן shemen (“oil”). That points to what comes after completeness: overflow, newness beyond the cycle. (See how seven and eight are teaching tools in Israel’s annual festival of Shemini Atzeret, Convocation of the Eighth Day, the day after Sukkot, or the Festival of Tabernacles.) In the priestly narratives, the priests undergo seven days of consecration, and then on the eighth day they begin to function in their role. The eighth day doesn't cancel the seven; it activates them. It is not the closing ceremony; it is the first day on the job. Spiritual “high points” (dedications, ordinations, festivals) are not endpoints. They stand as launchpads into long obedience. God's pattern suggests, “Let Me fill you for seven; then live it out on the eighth.” Fulfillment: Not abolition The same logic runs underneath Yeshua's words about the Torah and the Prophets, His preface to the Sermon on the Mount: “Do not think that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish but to fulfill. For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. Whoever then annuls one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 5:17-19 NASB95 The verb “fulfill” translates a verb similar to teleo: πληρόω pleróō (“to fill, bring to fullness, accomplish”). Yeshua explicitly rejects an “abolish” model and offers a “fill to the brim” one instead. He presents His mission as bringing Scripture's intent to its full expression, not tearing its foundation away. Teleo also shows up in Yeshua's final cry at His execution: Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished!” And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit. John 19:30 NASB95 “It is finished” here reads as a declaration of work that has reached a goal. In Heaven’s view, the past, present and future are in view at once. That’s reflected by the statement “Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” (Revelation 13:8 margin). Heaven's redemptive plan centers on Messiah's work, and that work radiates backward and forward through time. God doesn't improvise; He fulfills. The danger of hollow splendor In a recent study of the Mishkan, we explored how the inner sanctuary is filled with objects made entirely of or covered with זָהָב טָהוֹר zahav tahor (“pure gold”), and how Revelation's image of transparent gold presses the point: God seeks not just shine but purity — substance transformed all the way through. Unleavened bread and clarified oil operate the same way. Leaven often symbolizes corruption; its removal during consecration underscores singular devotion. The physical signs do real work in teaching: they train Israel to see holiness as separation from moral decay, not mere ritual fussiness. Yet the prophets, especially Ezekiel, expose how easily people can keep the externals and lose the center. His visions of abominations inside the temple reveal a brutal truth: a community can polish its gold and keep its liturgy while its heart runs after other gods. The priestly garments then become not a sign of holiness but a cover for hypocrisy. The study draws a clear warning: external forms — robes, rituals, structures — have value only when they match an internal reality of loyalty to the God who gave them. Spirit on the many Numbers 11:24–30 expands the filling imagery into the realm of the Spirit. Moses gathers 70 elders; God takes of the Spirit upon Moses and places it upon them; they prophesy. Two men, Eldad and Medad, remain in the camp yet also receive the Spirit and prophesy. When Joshua urges Moses to stop them, Moses responds: “Are you jealous for my sake? Would that all the LORD's people were prophets, that the LORD would put His Spirit upon them!” Numbers 11:29 NASB-style This response cuts against the instinct to hoard spiritual experiences or status. Rather than guarding a monopoly on prophetic activity, Moses welcomes its spread. The ideal in this passage is not a lone gifted figure but a community saturated with God's Spirit. For understanding calling and gifts, this stands as a crucial insight: the Spirit's abundance does not run on scarcity logic. One person's anointing does not reduce another's; it can invite and encourage it. Spiritual gifts as tools for the common good Paul's description of spiritual gifts in 1Corinthians 12–14 fits squarely within that Numbers 11 perspective. He writes of “varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit,” “varieties of ministries, and the same Lord,” “varieties of effects, but the same God” (1Corinthians 12:4–6). Then he states that “to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good” (1Corinthians 12:7). The key phrase, “for the common good,” reorients the entire discussion. Gifts are not badges; they are tools. They exist so that a community can sustain faith, grow in love, and carry out its mission. Under this framework, the question shifts from “What gift will make me significant?” to “What has God entrusted to me for others' sake?” The study draws a particular line around coveting. Biblically, coveting involves more than strong desire; it involves desiring in such a way that another must lose. When applied to spiritual gifts, coveting appears in attitudes like resenting another's calling or secretly wanting their influence diminished. That posture stands as the opposite of Moses' wish and Paul's “common good.” Saul and David: Bad and better ways to handle anointing The narrative of Saul in 1Samuel 10–15 offers a vivid example of how anointing can go wrong. In 1 Samuel 10, Samuel anoints Saul; the Spirit of the LORD comes mightily upon him, and he prophesies, becoming “another man.” God publicly marks Saul as king. Over time, however, Saul disobeys, fears people more than God, and refuses to fully submit. Eventually, Heaven falls silent: no dreams, no prophets, no answers through priestly means. In this silence, Saul seeks help from a medium at Endor, violating his own earlier decree and Torah's clear prohibitions. Instead of returning to trust and repentance, he attempts to force access to divine guidance through forbidden channels. Simultaneously, David emerges — not as the obvious first choice, but as the overlooked youngest son. When Samuel arrives, Yishai (Jesse) presents seven sons; only after God rejects each does Samuel ask if another remains. David comes in from shepherding and receives the anointing. The contrast becomes stark: Saul, the tall, impressive figure, clings and spirals; David, the unexpected one, eventually takes the throne as God's chosen. This contrast embodies two responses to God's shifting work: grasping or yielding. Saul clings to title and position, even to the point of hunting David. David, for his part, repeatedly refuses to kill Saul, recognizing another's anointing even while he himself has already been anointed. The study uses this to illustrate how callings overlap and transition, and how jealousy can poison what began in genuine anointing. Messiah, the sympathetic High Priest Hebrews 2:10–18 gathers many of these strands into a christological center. The passage describes how God makes “the author of their salvation” perfect through sufferings, so that He can bring “many sons to glory.” Messiah shares “flesh and blood” so that, “through death,” He might “render powerless him who had the power of death,” and “free those who through fear of death were subject to slavery all their lives” (Hebrews 2:14–15 NASB95). Here, the High Priest does not remain in a distant holy place untouched by human pain. He enters it. His perfection through suffering does not imply previous moral imperfection; rather, it indicates a completed qualification. He knows the path of obedience from the inside. That qualification places Him in a unique position to represent humans to God and God to humans. For service and calling, this reshapes fear. If death — the ultimate threat — has lost its enslaving power, service no longer needs to orbit self-protection. A community can embrace costly obedience because its High Priest has already walked that road and broken its enslaving grip. Leadership, vulnerability, and God's reputation Prophets repeatedly warned that God's name is blasphemed among the nations because of Israel's behavior (Ezekiel 36:20, 23; Isaiah 52:5). The same principle applies to any community claiming to serve Him: conduct shapes perception of God. When leaders — religious or otherwise — use power to harm, cover abuse, or protect institutions over people, the damage reaches beyond immediate victims. It stains the public sense of who God is. The frequent biblical mention of widows, orphans, and the sojourner (ger) highlights where God's scrutiny often falls: how do His people treat those with the least leverage? Within this frame, ordination and anointing carry weight. They do not only authorize ministry; they heighten responsibility for the vulnerable and for God's reputation. Living as a filled-hands people Messiah sends His followers, empowered by the Spirit, to participate in an ongoing mission. every believer becomes part of an eighth-day people — consecrated, clothed, filled, and then sent. God does not merely rescue individuals from something; He consistently equips them for something: for service that reflects His character, honors His name, and blesses others. The post Called, filled, sent: What the Torah says about anointing, service and spiritual fruit (Exodus 29; Isaiah 61–62; Hebrews 2) appeared first on Hallel Fellowship.

Anything that has permitting factors - specifically, in this case, for the consumption of the consecrated offerings - will, depending, avoid the complicating factor of pigul. If pigul is established with regard to the peace-offering (shelamim), how can it apply to other offerings that aren't quite parallel to the shelamim? The Gemara explains it all very clearly, and pigul indeed is extended even to the oil that the person recovering from tzara'at offers (including non-shelamim meat offerings, bird offerings, and grain offerings). Such a clear delineation of pigul! Also, how it is that kohanim can eat from bird offerings. Plus, the grain offerings and atonement coming from the less likely source of the grain and the birds. With verses to teach it all.

In this episode, I bring you something that's been on my heart to recreate for years. Inspired by the spontaneous, powerful moments I used to have during the Clubhouse era, I've launched a new live format called "How May I Serve You Today? Ask Me Anything." The idea is simple: I open a Zoom room, stream it live on Facebook, YouTube, and LinkedIn, and invite people to jump in for real-time, unscripted conversations. Just like the Clubhouse rooms I used to host, my intention is to hold space for deep coaching, authentic dialogue, and transformational moments in full view of a live audience. This is what I love most about coaching: witnessing the miraculous in everyday moments. Now, I get to bring that to you in podcast form. This episode features four unique conversations, each with its own flavor and insight: Conversation 1 – Ramon: Distraction as Enlightenment | Time Stamp 00:11:30 Ramon Ray, motivational keynote speaker and event host asked how to stay focused when a flurry of possibilities tugs at his attention. Together we: Clarified his personal definition of distraction as “not being focused on a single task for a meaningful amount of time.” Explored how repeated distractions can signal mis-alignment, tasks that belong in someone else's zone of excellence, not his own zone of genius. Reframed procrastination as feedback rather than failure, helping Ramon see that some tasks may simply need to be delegated or dropped. Listen for: A practical mindset shift that turns every interruption into a cue for deeper self-inquiry and better task design. Conversation 2 – Curtis: Re-awakening the Power to Dream | Time Stamp 00:37:18 Long-time listener Curtis joined to envision life after retirement. He struggled at first, so I invited him to “play make-believe.” Once he let his imagination lead, an inspiring vision unfolded: Curtis is guiding a bus tour across Europe, Abbey Road photos in London, the Isle of Wight Festival, Disneyland Paris, Normandy beaches, and more. The exercise linked childhood memories of GI Joe adventures to present-day possibilities, proving his imaginative muscles are still strong. Listen for: A repeatable prompt you can use to help clients (or yourself) move past “I don't know” and paint a vivid future. Conversation 3 – DeLyn: Launching a Grief Podcast without Perfection Paralysis | Time Stamp 01:12:21 DeLyn, an educator and grief advocate, has several episodes recorded but hasn't published due to fear and tech concerns. Together we: Identified her top blockers—perfectionism, intro/outro music, editing, and a self-imposed August 30 National Grief Awareness Day deadline. Reframed “perfect” to mean “the best I can with what I have right now,” reducing her fear score from a nine to about a three. Offered simple launch logistics (Buzzsprout hosting, minimalist artwork, optional music) and reminded her that an unpolished but heartfelt episode serves more people than silence. Listen for: Practical tips for shipping creative work even when your inner critic demands studio-level production. Conversation 4 – Mark: Releasing a Lifelong Fear of Judgment | Time Stamp 01:47:04 Mark arrived carrying a visceral fear of sending invoices to clients, a pattern that traces back to ridicule on his first day of kindergarten. Our dialogue centered on: Using The Four Agreements, especially “Don't take anything personally” and “Don't make assumptions” as daily practice. Viewing critics and trolls as mirrors that reveal hidden internal triggers, turning them into unexpected allies. Recognizing the physical release of fear (a “lightness in the chest” and tears) as evidence that old stories are dissolving. Listen for: A real-time demonstration of how a single mindset tool can lift decades-old emotional weight. Enjoy the episode, and if you'd like to join a future live session, keep an eye on my email list or hop into the stream the next time you see the “How May I Serve You Today?” banner.

Today we are bringing you something special! A behind the scenes look atone of the businesscreator.club office hours. We had a high-impact discussion on moving from one-on-one sales to scalable one-to-many models with content. We answered questions about launching podcasts, repurposing content, and growing a valuable network. We also discussed how to leverage collaborations to build authority and boost sales. Here are some of the top moments. 1. Validated the Interview Model as a Sales Engine - The interview model is still viable—when done strategically. Use it to build real relationships and create opportunities for collaboration and sales. 2. Leveraged “Ladder of Influence” Framework - Target guests based on tiers (C → B → A). Start with peers and move up by leveraging each guest's network. 3. Created the “Fastest Path to Cash” Flow - Focus first on direct relationships (the guest) and convert them or collaborate with them to reach their audience. This is quicker than cold ads or SEO. 4. Clarified the Expert Positioning in Interviews - Shift from “reporter” to “collaborator” by injecting your own insights in interviews. This positions you as an expert too. 5. Set the Playbook for Growth via Ask Framework - After every interview, ask these 3 things to ensure a constant flow of leads and opportunities. Timestamped Overview: [00:00] Intro: Behind the scenes of the Business Creator Club's first Q&A session [02:30] Surya's question: Is the interview model still worth it in 2025?

Because God is who He is and because man is the work of His hands, the will of God must be the foundation of moral obligation. "All things were created by him, and for him" (Col. 1:16). "Thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created" (Rev. 4:11). But God is not only our Creator. He is also our Ruler and Governor, and His rights over us are made known by His will, by His expressed will. Man is bound to do what God commands and to abstain from what He forbids, simply because He commands and forbids. Beyond that there is no reason. Direct reference to the divine will is essential to any moral virtue. When an action is done regardless of God's will, no honor is shown Him and no virtue pertains to it. Such is the clear and definite teaching of Holy Writ; it knows no foundation of right or wrong, no obligation, except the will of the Most High. It therefore follows that the will of God revealed is the rule of duty.
