Q. 42 What is the sum of the ten commandments?

98 問:道德律的總綱是什麼?
答:道德律的總綱是十誡,十誡是神在西乃山上親口頒布的,親手寫在兩塊石版上,並且記在出埃及記二十章。前四誡包含了我們向神當盡的本分,後六誡是我們向人當盡的本分。
Q. 98. Where is the moral law summarily comprehended?

The moral law is summarily comprehended in the Ten Commandments, which were delivered by the voice of God upon mount Sinai, and written by him in two tables of stone; and are recorded in the twentieth chapter of Exodus; the four first commandments containing our duty to God, and the other six our duty to man.
99 問:為要正確理解十誡,必須遵從哪些規則?
答:為要正確理解十誡,必須遵從下列規則:
1. 律法是全備的:每個人都有義務以全人來完全遵從,活出義的生活,永遠完全順服;因此律法要求以最完美的標準來克盡職守,以最高的要求嚴禁罪惡。
2. 律法是屬靈的:其範圍涉及人的悟性,意志,情感,與心靈其他一切功能;也包括言語,行為,態度。
3. 十誡論到同一事情,會重複出現在幾個誡命中,乃是按照其不同層面來吩咐,有的是要求遵行,有的是禁止。
4. 十誡吩咐一項正面責任時,同時禁止負面違反此責任的罪;禁止人犯負面的罪時,同時吩咐與此罪相反的正面責任。所以,十誡中應許遵行者得福時,即涵蓋違背者必遭對應的刑罰;警告違背者必遭刑罰時,即涵蓋遵行者必得對應的恩福。
5. 神所禁止的,任何時候都不可作;祂所吩咐的,永是我們的責任;但每個責任並非是每時刻都要行。
6. 論到一項罪惡或責任時,同類的罪惡也遭到禁止,同類的責任也在命令的範圍之內;這包括了彼此相關的,所有原因,方式,場合,表現,以及導致的誘因。
7. 十誡禁止或吩咐我們作的,我們有義務在處境中,盡全力去使他人在其處境中盡責任,也避免觸犯所禁止的,或遵行所吩咐的;
8. 十誡吩咐他人所遵行的,我們根據處境與呼召,有義務幫助他們去遵行;並且留心不要涉入十誡禁止他人所作的。
Q. 99. What rules are to be observed for the right understanding of the Ten Commandments?
A. For the right understanding of the Ten Commandments, these rules are to be observed:
1. That the law is perfect, and bindeth every one to full conformity in the whole man unto the righteousness thereof, and unto entire obedience forever; so as to require the utmost perfection of every duty, and to forbid the least degree of every sin.
2. That it is spiritual, and so reacheth the understanding, will, affections, and all other powers of the soul; as well as words, works, and gestures.
3. That one and the same thing, in divers respects, is required or forbidden in several commandments.
4. That as, where a duty is commanded, the contrary sin is forbidden; and, where a sin is forbidden, the contrary duty is commanded: so, where a promise is annexed, the contrary threatening is included; and, where a threatening is annexed, the contrary promise is included.
5. That what God forbids, is at no time to be done; what he commands, is always our duty; and yet every particular duty is not to be done at all times.
6. That under one sin or duty, all of the same kind are forbidden or commanded; together with all the causes, means, occasions, and appearances thereof, and provocations thereunto.
7. That what is forbidden or commanded to ourselves, we are bound, according to our places, to endeavor that it may be avoided or performed by others, according to the duty of their places.
8. That in what is commanded to others, we are bound, according to our places and callings, to be helpful to them; and to take heed of partaking with others in what is forbidden them.
第二十章 論基督徒的自由和良心的自由
二、惟獨神是良心的主10,在信仰或崇拜上凡與聖經相反,或在聖經以外屬乎人的教訓與命令,就是賣掉良心的真自由11;若勉強人不加理解的相信12,又要求人絕對的、盲從的順服,這就是毀滅良心的自由和理性13。
三、凡以基督徒自由為口實而犯罪的人,或心中懷着惡欲,就是破壞基督徒自由的目的;這目的就是,我們既從仇敵手中被救出來,就可以一生在主面前坦然無懼地以聖潔和公義服事他14。
