LORD’S DAY 13
33. Why is Christ called God’s “only begotten Son,” since we also are the children of God?
Because Christ alone is the eternal and natural Son of God; but we are children adopted of God,1John 1:14, 18 by grace, for His sake.2Romans 8:15-17; Ephesians 1:5-6; 1 John 3:1
34. Why do you call Him “our Lord”?
Because He has redeemed us, both soul and body, from all our sins, not with gold or silver, but with His precious blood, and has delivered us from all the power of the devil; and thus has made us his own property.31 Peter 1:18-19; 2:9; 1 Corinthians 6:20; 7:23; Acts 2:36; Titus 2:14; Colossians 1:14
