THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE LAW AND THE GOSPEL
APPENDIX. The reason for the dispute about "Essence"

Questions agreed by the commission of the General Assembly
Question 1. Are there any commandments in the Gospel that were not actually given before the Gospel was revealed?
Question 2. Isn't the believer now obliged by the authority of the Creator to show personal obedience to the moral law, although not for justification?
Question 3. Is the commandment, in which we find the promise of life and the threat of death, a covenant of deeds?
Question 4. Was the threat of hell added to the moral law before it took the form of the covenant of deeds?
Question 5. Only believers are free from the commanding power of the law as a covenant?
Question 6. Does the sinner receive all that is necessary for salvation at once upon justification?
Question 7. Does preaching about the need for a holy life to find eternal happiness threaten dangerous consequences for the doctrine of the gift of grace?
Question 8. Is the knowledge, faith, and conviction that Christ died for me, that He is my Savior, and that all His deeds and sufferings were done for me, a direct act of faith?
Question 9. What is the act of faith by means of which the sinner accepts Christ and His saving benefits?
Question 10. Is it possible to say that the revelation of God's will in the Word, which gives the basis for offering Christ to everyone and commands everyone to accept Him, is the gift of Christ offered by the Father to all mankind? Is this gift to all mankind realized through sovereign grace, and what is it - absolute or conditional?
Question 11. Is a similar division of the law, which is explained and applied in the "Essences" and which cannot be rejected without burying several evangelical truths, justified?
Question 12. Should hope for heaven and fear of hell be excluded from the motives of a believer's obedience? If not, how can the "Essence" be defended, which clearly excludes them, but allows for other motives?
