In the realm of common law, a judge's role is not confined to the mere application of legal principles, but extends to the wise stewardship of these principles in the pursuit of justice. This is analogous to the apostolic injunction to “Think on These Things” (Phil 4:8), where the Laws of Adam are applicable to the wise stewardship of gifts and modalities given by the Father for the common good.
Common law, a system of law based on precedent and customs, echoes the dynamism of the Laws of Adam. It is not a static body of rules, but a living, evolving system that must be navigated and interpreted with wisdom and prudence. In this light, a judge's role is not merely to apply the law, but to steward it wisely, to navigate its complexities and nuances in a way that serves the pursuit of justice.
This stewardship involves a deep engagement with the law's principles, a commitment to understanding its foundations and its implications, and a dedication to applying it in a way that is just, fair, and equitable. It is a call to think deeply and carefully about the law, to engage with it not just as a set of rules, but as a set of principles that guide our actions and our decisions.
Furthermore, the judge's stewardship of the law is not for their own benefit, but for the common good. It is a service to the community, a way of upholding the rule of law and ensuring the fair and just treatment of all individuals. In this sense, the judge's role is a gift, a modality of service that is to be used not for personal gain, but for the benefit of the whole community.
Therefore, the judge's role in the common law system is a profound and significant one. It is a call to wise stewardship, to the thoughtful and careful navigation of the law's principles in the pursuit of justice. It is a reminder of the importance of thinking deeply and carefully about the law, of engaging with it not just as a set of rules, but as a set of principles that guide our actions and our decisions.

However, the judge's role is not just to apply these customs but also to assume God’s moral precepts—those eternal and immutable principles of right and wrong found in the laws of nature and of revelation—as the final rationale behind all law. This assumption serves as a starting point for all legal and judicial thinking, ensuring that the judge is not merely a rubber stamp for the decrees of tyrants and dictators, but a key actor in the pursuit of justice.

The "Think of These Things" passage likens a judge's role in common law to the wise stewardship of the Laws of Adam for the common good, emphasizing the application of legal principles for justice. In common law, a judge's role is to wisely steward the law, serving justice by navigating its complexities and nuances. A judge's stewardship calls for a deep engagement with the law's principles, aiming for just, fair, and equitable application. A judge's stewardship, aimed at the common good, is a service to the community, upholding the rule of law and ensuring fair and just treatment for all. The judge's role in common law is a call to wise stewardship, reminding us of the importance of engaging with the law as guiding principles for our actions and decisions.

These are time-based impacts that play-out throughout our generation and over the generations of faithful stewardship since time immemorial. All belongs to God and ultimately returns back into his ownership. How we choose to use God’s gifts of ear, neck, head, heart, hand, tongue, eye (colour-coded in the graphic above) will come under scrutiny from heaven’s pov as every knee bows.
