Having seen what the Scriptures principally teach us to believe
concerning God, we next consider what they require as the duty of man.[1]
Q. 91. What is the duty that God requires of man?
A. The duty that God requires of man is obedience to His revealed will.
Romans 12:1–2 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) ; Micah 6:8 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) ; 1 Samuel 15:22 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 92. What did God at first reveal to man as the
rule of man’s obedience?
A. The rule of obedience revealed to Adam in the state of innocence, and to all mankind in him, was the moral law. There was also a special command not to eat of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.
Genesis
1:26–27 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; Romans 2:14–15 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; Romans 10:5 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; Genesis 2:17 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 93. What is the moral law?
A. The moral law is the declaration of the will of God to mankind. It directs and binds everyone to personal, perfect, and perpetual conformity and obedience to it in:
· The frame and disposition of the whole man, soul and bodya
· Performance of all those duties of holiness and righteousness that he owes to God and manb
The moral law promises life on fulfilling it, and threatens death on the breach of it.c

; cRomans 10:5 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; Galatians 3:10, 12 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 94. Is there any use of the moral law to man
since the fall?
A. Since the fall, no man can attain to righteousness and life by the moral law.a However, it is greatly useful, both in ways common to all men, and in ways that are particular either to the unregenerate or the regenerate.b
aRomans 8:3; Galatians 2:16 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) ; b1 Timothy 1:8 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 95. Of what use is the moral law to all men?
A. The moral law is of use to all men to:

; Leviticus 20:7–8 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; Romans 7:12 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)

; dRomans 3:9, 23 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; eGalatians 3:21–22 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
; fRomans 10:4 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 96. What particular use is there of the moral
law to unregenerate men?
A. The moral law is of use to unregenerate men to awaken their consciences to flee from wrath to comea and to drive them to Christ.b Or, if they continue in the state and way of sin, to leave them inexcusablec and under the curse of the law.d

; cRomans 1:20 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
with
Romans 2:15; dGalatians 3:10 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB)
Q. 97. What special use is there of the moral law
to the regenerate?
A. Those who are regenerate and believe in Christ are delivered from the moral law as a covenant of works.a Thus they are neither justifiedb nor condemned by it.c However, besides the general uses of the moral law that are common to them with all men, it is of special use to show them how much they are bound to Christ for His fulfilling it and enduring the curse of it in their stead and for their good.d Thus, the moral law provokes them to more thankfulnesse and to expression of thankfulness in their greater care to conform themselves to the moral law as the rule of their obedience.f

Q. 99.
Matthew 5:21–48 (ESV) Back
21“You have heard that it was said to those
of old, ‘You shall not murder; and whoever murders will be liable to judgment.’ 22But I
say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be liable to
judgment; whoever insults his brother will be liable to the council; and
whoever says, ‘You fool!’ will be liable to the hell of fire. 23So if
you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother
has something against you, 24leave your gift there before the altar and
go. First be reconciled to your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25Come to
terms quickly with your accuser while you are going with him to court, lest
your accuser hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the guard, and you be
put in prison. 26Truly, I say to you, you will never get out until
you have paid the last penny. 27“You have heard that it was said, ‘You
shall not commit adultery.’ 28But I say to you that everyone who looks
at a woman with lustful intent has already committed adultery with her in his
heart. 29If your right eye causes you to sin, tear it out and throw it away. For it
is better that you lose one of your members than that your whole body be thrown
into hell. 30And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it
off and throw it away. For it is better that you lose one of your members than
that your whole body go into hell. 31“It was also said, ‘Whoever divorces his
wife, let him give her a certificate of divorce.’ 32But I say to you that everyone who
divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, makes her commit
adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery. 33“Again
you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely,
but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ 34But I say to you, Do not take an oath at
all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35or by the earth, for it is his footstool,
or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36And do not take an oath by your head, for
you cannot make one hair white or black. 37Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’;
anything more than this comes from evil. 38“You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye
for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.’ 39But I say to you, Do not resist the one
who is evil. But if anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other
also. 40And if anyone would sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as
well. 41And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 42Give to
the one who begs from you, and do not refuse the one who would borrow from you. 43“You
have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your
enemy.’ 44But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for
those who persecute you, 45so that you may be sons of your Father who
is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends
rain on the just and on the unjust. 46For if you love those who love you, what
reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47And if
you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even
the Gentiles do the same? 48You therefore must be perfect, as your
heavenly Father is perfect.
Matthew 5:21-48 (KJ3) Back
21¶ You have heard that it was said
to the ancients: “Do not commit murder!” And, Whoever commits murder shall be
liable to the Judgment.†
22 But I say to you, Everyone who
is angry with his brother without cause shall be liable to the Judgment. And
whoever says to his brother, Raca, shall be liable to the sanhedrin; but
whoever says, Fool! shall be liable to be thrown into the fire of Hell.
23 Therefore if you offer your gift
on the altar, and remember there that your brother has something against you,
24 leave your gift there before the
altar, and go. First, be reconciled to your brother, and then, coming, offer
your gift.
25 Be well-disposed toward your
opponent quickly, while you are in the way with him, that the opponent not give
you over to the judge, and the judge give you over to the officer, and you be
thrown into prison.
26 Truly, I say to you, you shall
not come out from there, not until you pay the last kodrantes.
27¶ You have heard that it was said
to the ancients: “Do not commit adultery.”†
28 But I say to you, Everyone
looking at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in
his heart.
29 But if your right eye causes you
to stumble, take it out and throw it from you, for it is profitable to
you that one of your members should be destroyed and all your body not be
thrown into Hell.
30 And if your right hand causes
you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you, for it is profitable
to you that one of your members should be destroyed and all your body not be
thrown into Hell.
31 It was also said, Whoever puts
away his wife, “let him give her a bill of divorce.”†
32 But I say to you, Whoever puts
away his wife, apart from a matter of fornication, causes her to commit
adultery. And whoever shall marry the one put away commits adultery.
33¶ Again, you have heard that it
was said to the ancients: “You shall not swear falsely, but shall give your
oaths to the Lord.Ӡ
34 But I say to you, Do not swear
at all, neither by Heaven, because it is God’s throne;†
35 nor by the earth, because it is
the footstool of His feet; nor by Jerusalem, because it is the city of
the great King.†
36 Nor shall you swear by your

No, no. For the excess of these is from the evil.
38¶ You have heard that it was
said: “An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth;”†
39 but I say to you, Do not resist
the evil; but whoever strikes you on the right cheek, turn the other to him
also.
40 And to him desiring to sue you,
and to take your tunic, allow him also to have the coat.
41 And whoever shall compel you to
go one mile, go with him two;
42 to the one asking you,
Give, and to the one wishing to borrow from you, do not turn away.
43¶ You have heard that it was
said, “You shall love your neighbor” and hate your enemy;†
44 but I say to you, Love your
enemies; bless those cursing you, do well to those hating you; and pray for
those abusing and persecuting you,
45 so that you may become sons of
your Father in Heaven. Because He causes His sun to rise on the evil and
the good, and sends rain on the just and unjust.
46 For if you love those loving
you, what reward do you have? Do not even the taxcollectors do the same?
47 And if you only greet your
brothers, what exceptional thing do you do? Do not the tax-collectors do
so?
48 Therefore, you be perfect even

‘You good-for-nothing,’ shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever
says, ‘You fool,’ shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell. 23“Therefore
if you are presenting your offering at the altar, and there remember that your
brother has something against you, 24leave your offering there before the altar
and go; first be reconciled to your brother, and then come and present your
offering. 25“Make friends quickly with your opponent at law
while you are with him on the way, so that your opponent may not hand you over
to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison. 26“Truly
I say to you, you will not come out of there until you have paid up the last
cent. 27“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall not commit adultery’; 28but I
say to you that everyone who looks at a woman with lust for her has already
committed adultery with her in his heart. 29“If your right eye makes you stumble, tear

your right hand makes you stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; for it is
better for you to lose one of the parts of your body, than for your whole body
to go into hell. 31“It was said, ‘Whoever sends his wife away, let
him give her a certificate of divorce’; 32but I say to you that everyone who
divorces his wife, except for the reason of unchastity, makes her commit
adultery; and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery. 33“Again,
you have heard that the ancients were told, ‘You shall not make false vows, but
shall fulfill your vows to the Lord.’ 34“But I say to you, make no oath at all,
either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, 35or by the earth, for it is the footstool
of His feet, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36“Nor

person; but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also. 40“If
anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, let him have your coat also. 41“Whoever
forces you to go one mile, go with him two. 42“Give to him who asks of you, and do not
turn away from him who wants to borrow from you. 43“You have heard that it was said, ‘You
shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44“But I say to you, love your enemies and
pray for those who persecute you, 45so that you may be sons of your Father who
