Catechism: An Outline of the Faith
Q. Why do we not use our freedom as we should?

Q. What help is there for us?
A. Our help is in God.
Q. How did God first help us?
A. God first helped us by revealing himself and his will, through nature and history, through many seers and saints, and especially the prophets of Israel.
