God Will Understand

I heard this statement when I overheard a conversation, "God will surely understand."  Many people apparently believe that regardless of what actions we choose to take that God will understand.  The statement which I overheard suggests that in certain situations God will simply overlook or ignore the laws which He has made.  Did God understand when Nadab and Abihu "offered strange fire before the Lord, which he commanded them not?"  Leviticus 10:1.  The following verse states, "And there went out fire from the Lord, and devoured them, and they died before the Lord."  Leviticus 10:2.  God's laws are immutable.  His laws are not to be ignored or disobeyed.  "Every disobedience and transgression received a just recompense of reward."  Hebrews 2:2.  God wants man to hear and obey His will.  His will is not to be questioned.  We may not understand the reason for the law which He has given.  We may not agree with the law which He has made.  His laws, rules, and commandments are to be obeyed.  If we choose to disobey, God will visit His divine wrath upon us.  Those who violate His will "receive in themselves that recompense of their error which was meet."  Romans 1:27.  We must understand obedience rather than God understanding our disobedience.
