Q1: What is your only comfort, in life, and in death?
A: That I belong - body and soul, in life and in death - not
to myself but to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ, who at the cost of
his own blood has fully paid for all my sins and has completely freed
me from the dominion of the devil; that he protects me so well that
without the will of my Father in heaven not a hair can fall from my
head; indeed, that everything must fit his purpose for my salvation.
Therefore, by his Holy Spirit, he also assures me of eternal life, and
makes me wholeheartedly willing and ready from now on to live for him.
