Heidelberg Catechism: 'What is the third petition?'
LORD’S DAY 49 124. What is the third petition? “Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” That is, grant that we and all men may renounce our own will, and obey, without murmuring, Your will which alone is good;1 that so every one may fulfill his office and calling,2 as willingly and truly as the angels do in heaven.3 1 Mt 7:21, 16:24-26; Lk 22:42; Rom 12:1-2; Tit 2:11-12; 2 1 Cor 7:17-24; Eph 6:5-9; 3 Ps 103:20-21 Source: Heidelberg Catechism - Westminster Seminary California
