The Shorter Catechism Explained - Questions 105-106 - Pastor Stuart Sanders

Q. 105. What do we pray for in the fifth petition? A. In the fifth petition, which is, And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors,” we pray, that God, for Christ’s sake, would freely pardon all our sins; which we are the rather encouraged to ask, because by his grace we are enabled from the heart to forgive others. Matt. 6:12; Ps. 51:1-2, 7, 9; Dan. 9:17-19; Luke 11:4; Matt. 18:35. Q. 106. What do we pray for in the sixth petition? A. In the sixth petition, which is, And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil,” we pray, that God would either keep us from being tempted to sin, or support and deliver us when we are tempted. Matt. 6:12; Matt. 26:41; 2 Cor. 12:7-8. Sunday, November 13, 2022 5:00pm https://thewestminsterstandard.org/westminster-shorter-catechism/
