This class continues to explore the foundations of morality and introduces the first three commandments. It begins by considering the meaning of natural law, the Old Law, the New Law, grace, justification, merit, and the universal call to holiness. Next, it outlines the Decalogue or Ten Commandments in general terms. Finally, it presents the first, second, and third commandments both positively and negatively as regards the worship of God, the holiness of God's name, and the Lord's Day.
