Guarding Words and Deeds – A Kingdom Catechism

Guarding Words and Deeds

A Kingdom Catechism

We must know God’s truth to live and speak it.

Q 122: How do the redeemed of the Lord guard their words and ways with God?

A 122: The redeemed of the Lord guard their words and ways with God by keeping all His Word, turning away from all contrary ways, and fulfilling their vows to the Lord. (Lev. 18:24-30; Deut. 23:21-23; Eccl. 5:4, 6)

We cannot live the truth, speak the truth, or defend and advance the truth if we do not know the truth. God’s Word is truth; therefore, the followers of Jesus Christ must be diligent and constant students of Scripture, seeking in God’s Word the truth as it relates to every aspect of human life and interest. This is the work of developing a Christian worldview, and every believer is bound by love for God and neighbor to contribute to this effort.
