Is God bound by the law?

Cosmological Argument and the Law of Cause and Effect

In this argument, a principle is stated, known as the "Law of Causality." According to this law, everything in the universe, every effect, must have a cause. Therefore, the universe itself must also have a cause.

The first cause of the universe

This argument also asserts that the first cause will not have a cause because physical laws apply only to the physical world, not to the metaphysical world. The laws of the universe apply only within the universe, not beyond it.

Application of laws

The laws of the universe function only from the moment it came into existence, not before. Physical laws operate within space and time, not beyond them. The first cause exists outside the universe and space-time, and it has existed since before them. Therefore, the law of causality does not apply to the first cause.

It is impossible and a fallacy to consider God subject to law

This law only applies to things that have a beginning. Since God has no beginning, He is beyond this law. If it is assumed that God is also subject to law, then God would be bound by it. For law to be binding, it would have to exist before God, and if the law existed before God, then there must be a creator of that law. Thus, believing that God is subject to law leads to one fallacy after another.

The conclusion is that God is above the laws of the universe and has no beginning. Therefore, God is not bound by the law of causality and is the first  and prime cause of the existence of the universe, he is the first uncaused cause.
