No attempt has been made to adorn or to prettify it. It presents the same sober guise that we meet with in the earliest editions. In simple questions and answers the fundamentals of Christianity are made clear. Because Luther adhered so closely to the Bible, his Catechism has established itself firmly in the Church as the text preeminent for the instruction of children. It takes the Ten Commandments and shows what men must do. Because nobody has k ept the divine law a Saviour is necessary. The next section, dealing with the creed, logically follows. It states the faith of the church in the Saviour, the eternal Son of God, who suffered and died that men might be re-. deemed from sin ; and in the Holy Ghost, who through the Gospel brings this salvation to men.
