9. Q. Does not God, then, wrong man by requiring of him in his law that which he cannot perform? A. Not at all; for God made man capable of performing it; but man, through the instigation of the devil, by his own willful disobedience, deprived himself and all his posterity of these gifts.
10. Q. Will God suffer such disobedience and apostasy to go unpunished? A. By no means; but he is terribly displeased with our original as well as actual sins; and will punish them by a just judgment temporally and eternally, as he has declared, Cursed is every one who continueth not in all things that are written in the book of the law, to do them.
11. Q. Is, then, God not also merciful? A. God is indeed merciful, but he is also just; therefore his justice requires that sin which is committed against the most high majesty of God, be also punished with extreme, that is, with everlasting punishment of body and soul.
