Whether we believe it or not, laws of karma apply to every one. When we
touch something hot or cold, our hands feel it irrespective of our
faith.
Lord Krishna says in Bhagavad Gita,
" Man mana bhava mad bhakto,
Mad yaji mam namaskuru,
Mam evaisyati satyam te,
Pratijane priyo si me. "
( Gitaji, 18, 65)
Which means,
' Always think of Me, be My devotee, worship and offer your obeisances unto Me. Then you come to me certainly. I promise this to you because your are My friend. '
The way to reach His Abode, is through devotional service, with complete surrender unto His Lotus Feet.
In Gita Mahatmyam from Varaha Purana, Lord Vishnu assures the Goddess Earth, Bhudevi,
" Gita artham dhyayate nityam,
Krutva karmani bhurishah
Jivan muktassa vijnayo,
Dehante paramam padam. "
Which means,
' Who ever recites the meaning of Gitaji constantly, eventhough he or she is into karmic actions, gets liberation and reaches Me in the end. '
If we want to move beyond these karmas, there is only one way. That is devotional service.
Let us chant the Holy Names and advance spiritually.

The Law of Karma is universal and applies to all regardless of religion of course as does the law of Gravity which I understand is also mentioned in the Rig Veda - the ancient Rishis postulated laws which are beyond any religion and therefore they are SANATAN or eternal. The Veda or its metaphysical part is called eternal not out of some dogmatic injunction but through a robust enquiry in the Upanishads.
Jesus also tried to teach the Israelites the law of Karma through his parable, 'you reap what you sow'.
