"From the very beginning of the great controversy in heaven it has been Satan's purpose to overthrow the law of God." --Ellen G. White, The Great Controversy, p. 582

Why? Because the law, as the foundation of God's government, expresses the moral integrity of the cosmos; and to overthrow that law would be to overthrow the moral order of the creation itself. 

If no god existed, and no life either, the universe would be amoral, as in having no morals, because nothing in it--such as lifeless rocks hurling through a godless cosmos--could manifest moral qualities. 

However, God exists, and humans do as well, and we have been created as moral beings with the capacity to give and to receive love. Love, though, cannot exist without freedom, moral freedom. Love rests on freedom, and freedom rest on law. Hence, the core of God's government, the foundation of that government--a government of love--has to be His Law. 

In this study, you will learn that the link between our loving God and the keeping of His commandments is stronger than we realize.
