First, let's specify law as the system of rules that a particular country or community recognizes as regulating the actions of its members and may enforce by the imposition of penalties. The law as such may be the criterion or standard for determining what constitutes lawlessness (as with sin in general), but at its root lawlessness is knowingly, deliberately and willfully rebelling against the laws of God and man, whether viewed as the condition of one's life or as specific Acts that demonstrate a determined refusal to acknowledge God. Please read Isaiah 14:12-14 for better understanding. GOD Bless.
