Catechism 6
Questions 34-41
CM
At Sinai how many commands
Did God give? - There were ten.
What can we call these ten commands?
God’s moral law. Amen.
Now, in the first four what is taught?
Duty to God. And then,
As for the other six what's taught?
Duty to fellow men.
What would the sum of all ten be?
Love God with all I am,
My neighbour as myself. Who's he?
That's any fellow man.
With those who love him and obey
God's happy – can that be?
Oh yes it is. We've heard him say
'I love them that love me'.
Is God pleased if men don't obey
Or love him? What's it say?
No. 'With sinners' we've heard him say
'God's angry every day'.
