Catechism Corner

Q. 66. What is that union which the elect have with Christ?
The union which the elect have with Christ is the work of God’s grace, whereby they are spiritually and mystically, yet really and inseparably, joined to Christ as their head and husband; which is done in their effectual calling.  


(Westminster Larger Catechism)

Tabletalk Moment

Joshua’s Farewell: If the people are to remain faithful to Yahweh, the God of Israel, after Joshua’s death, they must remember His great acts of salvation…We cannot remain faithful to the Lord for long if we forget what He has done to save us from sin…the God with whom they are dealing is not One to be trifled with…the sin that He will not forgive is our impenitent abandoning of Him to serve other gods. (Tabletalk Magazine, February 12, page 45).
