1.1 Divine Law
Article 3 - The Divine
The highest law of all law is Divine Law, then Natural Law, then Cognitive Law, then Positive Law. The totality of this law as expressed through valid canons is The Law.
Divine Law is the law that defines the Divine and clearly demonstrates the spirit, mind, purpose and instruction of the Divine including the operation of the will of the Divine through existence. Therefore all valid law may be said to be derived from Divine Law.
Natural Law is the law that defines the operation of the will of the Divine through its existence in the form of matter and physical rules. As Natural Laws define the operation and existence of the physical universe, all valid Positive Law may be said to be derived from Natural Law.
Positive Law are the laws enacted by men and women through proper authority in accordance with these canons for the governance of a society. Positive Law ultimately refers to physical objects and living beings; All valid Positive Law may be said to be derived from Natural Law and Cognitive Law.
A Positive Law cannot abrogate, suspend, nor change a Cognitive Law or Natural Law. Nor is it possible for a Cognitive Law or Natural Law to abrogate, suspend or change a Divine Law.
A Natural Law cannot be written or created, only discovered. A Divine Law cannot be written or created, only instructed by Divine Grace in accordance with these canons.
