Every Saturday part of a reformation confession or catechism is posted. This week we have Lord's day 3 from the Heidelberg catechism.
Lord’s Day 3
6.Q. Did God create man so wicked and perverse?
A. No. God created man good and in his own image, that is, in true righteousness and holiness, so that he might truly know God his creator, love him with all his heart, and live with him in eternal happiness for His praise and glory.
Genesis 1:26,27,31; Psalm 8; Ephesians 4:24; Colossians 3:10.
7.Q. Then where does man’s corrupt nature come from?
A. From the fall and disobedience of our first parents, Adam and Eve, in Paradise. This fall has so poisoned our nature that we are born sinners - corrupt from conception on.
Genesis 3; Psalm 51:5; Romans 5:12,18,19.
8.Q. But are we so corrupt that we are totally unable to do any good and inclined toward all evil?
A. Yes, unless we are born again, by the Spirit of God.
Genesis 6:5; Genesis 8:21; Job 14:4; Isaiah 53:6; John 3:3-5.
