Lord’s Day 41

(Third Part: Of Thankfulness—Questions 86-129)

108. What does the seventh commandment teach us?

  • That all unchastity is accursed of God; and that we should therefore loathe it from the heart, and live chastely and modestly whether in holy wedlock or single life.

109. Does God in this commandment forbid nothing more than adultery and such like gross sins?

  • Since our body and soul are both temples of the Holy Ghost, it is His will that we keep both pure and holy; for which reason He forbids all unchaste actions, gestures, words, thoughts, desires, and whatever may entice thereto.

Jesus is alive and the whole Bible is about Him, and I am nobody. I like to till the earth and muse over all things theological.
