Q 19: What is the promise of the Law of God?

A 19: The promise of the Law of God is that all who walk in obedience to it will know life, peace, joy, and hope, and will evidence the glory of God. (Deut. 19.8-10; Ps. 19.4-7; 2 Cor. 3.12-18)

Q 20: Given the nature, purpose, and promise of the Law, how should the believer regard it?

A 20: The believer must embrace the Law with his whole heart, nurturing love for God’s Law, developing understanding of the Law, and delighting in the performance of it. (Rom. 3.31; Rom. 7.12; Ps. 119.112; Ps. 119.97; Ps. 1; Ps. 40.8)

Q 21: How can believers come thus to regard the Law of God?

A 21: By reading, studying, and meditating in it, hiding the Law of God in their hearts, encouraging one another in the good works it prescribes, walking in the way of love it prescribes, and teaching the Law of God as foundational to life in the Kingdom of God. (Ps. 1; Ps. 119.9-11; Col. 3.16; Eph. 2.8-10; Heb. 10.24; 1 Jn. 2.1-6; Matt. 5.17-19)
