This week our catechism question and answer focuses on the law's purpose in our lives. Take some time to review these truths to prepare your heart for the worship themes this week.

Since no one can keep the law, what is its purpose?

That we may know the holy nature and will of God, and the sinful nature and disobedience of our hearts; and thus our need of a Savior. The law also teaches and exhorts us to live a life worthy of our Savior.

Romans 3:20

No one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.
