Moral Code

Ukrainian Catholics find the basis for their moral code in the following:

o Natural moral law: Humans, being capable of reason, are ordained by it to do good and avoid sin. Natural law is universal in its precepts, and its authority extends to all humanity.

o The law of God: This comprises the old law (the Ten Commandments, or Decalogue) of the Old Testament; and the new law of Jesus Christ, summed up in his new commandment to love one another as He has loved us.
