Discussion Questions: Baptist Catechism 87

  1. Review the 10 Commandments. 
  2. God’s law is good if we use it lawfully (see 1 Timothy 1:8). What does this mean? How have men and women misused God’s law?
  3. Why is Baptist Catechism 87 such a crucial Q&A?
  4.  What is the very short, two-letter word, answer to the question, Is any man able perfectly to keep the commandments of God?
  5. Why is the answer to question 87 so long, then? Why does it say:
    1. No mere man…
    2. Since the fall
    3. Is able in this life
    4. Perfectly to keep the commandments of God?
  6. How does this Q&A prepare for the good news of salvation through faith in Christ alone?
