The image of God has four aspects and these help us to understand creation, the fall and the work of Christ.
God’s law requires absolute perfect love (for God and for neighbor), which no fallen man can give, which means each of us needs to understand our own sin.
God has given us the law to expose our sins to us in order that we might own them and humbly turn from them in order to find mercy.
True eternal comfort is not found in anything we are or do, but in the Triune God who grants us redemption.
The Heidelberg Catechism was written to answer man’s most important question, “How can sinful man find peace and rest in the most ultimate of ways?”
