第三十三问
Q. Why is he called God’s “only begotten Son” when we also are God’s children?
为什么祂被称为神的独生子，而我们同时也是神的儿女？
A. Because Christ alone is the eternal, natural Son of God. [1] We, however, are adopted children of God - adopted by grace through Christ. [2]
因为唯有基督是神永恒而自然的儿子。[1] 我们确实因恩典在基督里被收纳为神的儿女。[2]

第三十四问
Q. Why do you call him “our Lord”?
为什么你称祂为“我们的主”？
A. Because - not with gold or silver, but with his precious blood - [1] he has set us free from sin and from the tyranny of the devil, [2] and has bought us, body and soul, to be his very own. [3]
因为，祂不是用金银，乃是用祂的宝血[1]，救了我们脱离了罪和恶魔的暴虐[2]，买我们身体灵魂归祂自己[3]。
