		The law came, says Paul, as a harsh baby sitter to see to it that the children of Israel did not raid the refrigerator before the great party at which the Gentiles should also be present.
		In law, as in legalistic morality, what ultimately matters is conduct, not character: as long as rules are obeyed, principles observed, laws followed, duties fulfilled and obligations kept, it does not particularly matter what manner of person does them..
		Thus the law and the covenant are integrally one.

		One of the most famous is William J. Benson, co-author of the infamous "The Law that Never Was" which claims that the 16th Amendment was never ratified by the states.

	SECTION 861:... THE LAW THEY HOPE YOU NEVER READ
		Most Americans have never seen the law that requires them to file a return, and most have never researched the IRS code to determine how much, if any, of their income is taxable under the law as it is actually written.
		If the law requires one to pay, why does the IRS call for “voluntary compliance?” If one is charged with violating the law is his or her appearance in court voluntary?
		But, as complex and torturous as it may be, the law must still be printed in English and in fl letters on white paper.
