_13. How has God given His law to us?_
1. In the creation God wrote His Law in the heart of man.
(Conscience.) Rom. 2:15.
2. At Mount Sinai He gave His Law in the Ten Commandments, written on
two tables of stone. Ex. 20:1-17.
_14. Does this Law demand outward observance only?_
No; it demands the whole man, and the willing obedience of heart and
mind.
=Luk. 10:27. Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all
thy mind.=
_15. Can we be saved through the Law?_
No; since the fall in sin no man can perfectly keep the Law.
=Rom. 8:7. The carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not
subject to the law of God, neither indeed can it be.=
_16. Of what benefit, then, is the Law?_
