Be fruitful and Multiple- First ever law God gave us-
Romans 1: Attraction to themselves more than to God - Loving the dirt more than God and his word.
During Jesus's time in the Jewish law they were stoned- Paul only say something about it because he was with the gentles- Who were animals in there own right.
For the word of the Lord is Love - I can Love you but Loving your sin or agreeing with your ideas of lust and selfish brain washing is wrong.

The First Law The Protoplast Genesis 2:16-17 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat:…
The first word God spake to man was a blessing; the second word was a law. We might have anticipated this. It seems the natural expression of the relationship which exists between the Creator and His creature. The commandment given was a very simple one, "Thou shalt not eat of the tree of knowledge." We are almost involuntarily reminded of the words of Naaman's servant — "My father, if the prophet had bid thee do some great thing, wouldest thou not have done it? how much rather then, when he saith to thee, 'Wash, and be clean'?" Doubtless, in this morning of creation, Adam's soul, filled to overflowing with gladness, was ready to break forth, and say, "What shall I render unto the Lord for all his benefits toward me?" No thank offering could have seemed too great for God, no tribute of love too costly. The language of his worship could only be, "Of thine own, I give thee." And yet it was a little thing which God asked of man, for" to obey is better than sacrifice." Think, how great, how abounding was the provision for Adam; how narrow the prohibition. It was a small thing that God demanded; but a great ruin was involved in the withholding of obedience. We wonder to see how slight was the thread to which a world's destinies were suspended. Blind fools we are, slow to learn the lesson taught in every page of the Bible, and in every dispensation of personal providence, that there is nothing trivial with God. He makes great matters to turn on imperceptible hinges. We have no spiritual microscope wherewith to read that fine writing of the eternal finger of God upon every grain of ocean sand, and every glittering mote in the sunbeam, telling us of "a purpose under the heaven." Curious men have striven hard to discover what the forbidden tree of knowledge was: they would fain study the physiology of that "fruit, which brought death into our world"; but surely, there was no physical quality in that tree to enlighten the mind; it received its name, because by eating it, in transgression of God's law, man obtained the bitter knowledge of evil as an antagonist of good: the act of feeding upon its fruit taught him that there was misery as well as blessedness, darkness as well as light, evil as well as good. God called the tree according to His foreknowledge; Adam only saw the fitness of the name, when, having eaten, his eyes were opened, and he knew his ruin. There is one thing which calls, I think, for particular attention in the first law. It is, that there was no independent intrinsic evil in the forbidden act; it was evil only because God's law stood against it. If God had spoken of intrinsic evil to Adam (I use the word intrinsic, because I know no better word to express my meaning, evil, per se) he would not have understood that which was said. If God had said, Thou shalt not kill, or Thou shalt not lie, Adam would have been utterly unable to comprehend the words. He had not yet learnt the nature of evil. God took an act that was in itself perfectly innocent, and by forbidding it, He made it sin in Adam. I trust I shall not be mistaken here. I do not say, God made Adam to sin; but I say, God's law prohibiting an action, caused that action to be sinful in His creature. This is, indeed, a great lesson for us, and one which we are very unwilling to learn. God's law is as sovereign as His love. It is not necessary that a thing should be essential evil to meet with His disapprobation; it is enough that His will is against it. Behold, then, the severity of God, and fear before Him. There is no such thing as good by His law condemned. There is no such thing as evil by His law commanded.
(The Protoplast.)

There is no such thing as good by His law condemned. There is no such thing as evil by His law commanded. (The Protoplast.) This is speaking of law that God gave man while not fallen. This is a different real from what we are living in now. We are living in the time of the fallen. The first Law God gave man is what I stated. God allowed us in our sin to reproduce. Knowing that he would redeem us through Jesus Yashua his son. He gave us the power of the convenient to show us and teach us that he loves being one with his creation. This in turn shows us the real evil in this world. Those who divide. God hates divorce but love marriage. While the devil and evil men love divorce. This is one of the reasons that we know that homosexual ideas is wrong. The divorce rate is so high. The focus on reproducing should be a high focus yet we kill babies by the millions daily. God told the race of humans to go and multiple not add. God did not place another race of intelligence on this planet with us because he wanted us to focus on only building us. The other awesome fact of this. That God only made three laws concerning marriage and one of them he allowed for us to brake. (Divorce) This factor is real. God wants us to build so he can redeem the lost and broken. God loves us in our sin. God first Loved us
