Q.30. Does God leave the whole human race to die in sin and misery?

A. God does not leave the whole human race to die in the sin and misery[1] that resulted from breaking the first covenant, ordinarily called the covenant of works.[2] Merely from his love and mercy, God delivers his elect from sin and misery and brings them into salvation by means of the second covenant, ordinarily called the covenant of grace.[3]
