第三十一问
Q. Why is he called “Christ,” meaning “anointed”?
为何祂被称为基督，意为受膏者？
A. Because he has been ordained by God the Father and has been anointed with the Holy Spirit [1] to be our chief prophetand teacher [2] who fully reveals to us the secret counsel and will of God concerning our deliverance; [3] our only high priest [4] who has delivered us by the one sacrifice of his body, [5] and who continually pleads our cause with the Father; [6] and our eternal king [7] who governs us by his Word and Spirit, and who guards us and keeps us in the freedom he has won for us. [8]
因为祂已经被父神所膏立，并未圣灵所膏[1]， 要成为我们的最大的先知和教师[2]来将神关于我们得救的奥秘的计划和心意启示我们；[3] 也成为我们唯一的大祭司[4]，将自己的身体一次献上来释放我们[5]，并且为我们的过犯不断在父面前代求[6]； 祂也作我们永恒的君王[7]，以祂的道和灵管治我们，并保护我们，保守我们在祂为我们赢得的自由中[8]。

第三十二问
Q. But why are you called a Christian?
那么你为什么被称为一名基督徒？
A. Because by faith I am a member of Christ [1] and so I share in his anointing. [2]
因为我因信已经成为基督的肢体[1]，因此我也有份于祂的膏立[2]。
I am anointed to confess his name, [3] to present myself to him as a living sacrifice of thanks, [4] to strive with a free conscience against sin and the devil in this life, [5] and afterward to reign with Christ over all creation for eternity. [6]
我被膏立以认祂名[3]，并将自己献给祂作为感恩的活祭[4]， 并在此生以自由的良心与罪和魔鬼抗争[5]， 并在将来要和基督一同作王，永远掌权于万有之上[6]。
