These sacred pacts are elucidated, distinguished, and defended against numerous perilous doctrines.
这些神圣的契约被阐明、区分，并且针对众多危险的教义进行了辩护。
The proper understanding of them shall prove highly beneficial to those who have passed through the initial covenant and are firmly rooted in the second, especially during the Sacrament.
对它们的正确理解将极大地有益于那些已经经历了初始契约并且在第二契约中扎根的人，特别是在圣礼期间。
“Therefore as by the offense of one, judgment came upon all men to condemnation:
“所以，因一人的过犯，审判临到所有人，受了定罪；
even so by the righteousness of one, the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.
同样，因一人的义，恩赐临到所有人，使他们得以称义。
For as by one man’s disobedience, many were made sinners,
因为通过一人的不顺服，许多人被造作罪；
so by the obedience of one, shall many be made righteous.” – Romans 5:18, 19.
同样，通过一人的顺服，许多人也将被称为义。”（罗马书 5:18, 19）
The Law was bestowed upon us by Moses,
律法是摩西传给我们的，
but grace and truth emanated through Jesus Christ. – John 1:16.
但恩典和真理是通过耶稣基督显明的。（约翰福音 1:16）
