Q&A 33 Why is he called God's "only begotten Son" when we also are
God's children?

- We, however, are adopted children of God--
- adopted by grace through Christ.2

Q&A 34 Why do you call him "our Lord"?
- Because--
- not with gold or silver,

- 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
