The Law of the Harvest (1 of 4)

Galatians 6:7-9
Let me ask you a question. How many have ever gotten a speeding ticket? You know, you get a speeding ticket, and I've had my share, you get a speeding ticket when you break the law on the road, the speed limit law. You can only go so fast on the road. That's right. You'll be breaking it one day, too. But, you know man has set up laws to govern our highways and to govern our society, man-made laws, in order to bring order and not chaos.

The good news about Tombstone - there are not many violators of that law. A lot of them don't have teeth anyway. But they're, they're required.
Louisiana, it's illegal for mourners at a wake to eat more than three sandwiches. Isn't that wild? I mean, it's a wake. Leave some for the others. Hazelhurst, Mississippi, it's illegal to fish by using an Uzi. You've got your pole. I've got my Uzi. Let's go. We're going fishing.
Alamosa, Colorado, it's illegal to throw missiles at cars. Wow! Some of those you just wouldn't think you'd have to have that. But those are man-made laws. And, obviously, some of those have ...
