Sermons on the Heidelberg Catechism
Sermon #5 “Man’s Sinnership in Light of God’s Justice”
Lord’s Day 4 — Questions #9, #10, and #11
In the previous sermons, we heard much about our sin and misery in this fallen world, and now, in this sermon we are confronted with how God sees our condition, and what God says about it. In the last verse of Psalm 50, we see the good news of the gospel expressed, when a sinner repents and takes refuge to Christ. And so this sermon exposits the first part of Lord’s Day 4 under three points:
1. God’s Just Requirements
2. God’s Just Wrath
3. God’s Just Judgment
