the laws of nature

We may believe that we are in control of our own lives. In reality, however, we exist within a broad framework governed by the laws of nature, from which we cannot escape. Natural laws are the fundamental principles that govern the behavior of the physical world.

For example, whether it’s a planet or a galaxy, they all adhere to the same fundamental law of gravity to which we are also subject, with varying degrees of impact and magnitude based on certain factors.

The key question is this. What is the origin of the laws of nature? Some say that the laws of nature are the inherent nature of the universe. Others attribute the laws of nature to a higher power.

Christians believe that these laws were designed and arranged by God the Creator. Christians believe that the universe was not randomly put together, but was designed by God with a purpose. Why do we believe this? Perhaps this is where faith comes in.
