CONFESSION OF SIN (Romans 12:17-21, Matthew 5:9)

(Leader)

Do not repay anyone evil for evil.

Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.

(Congregation)

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.

If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.


Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath,


For it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.


On the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him;


If he is thirsty, give him something to drink.


In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head."


Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.


Silent prayer, confessing our sin.

The reading of

scripture, which

exposes our sin.

THE LORD ’S PRAYER

Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy Kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Thine is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory for ever. Amen.

ASSURANCE OF PARDON (Ephesians 1:7-8)

In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in

accordance with the riches of God's grace that he lavished on us with all

wisdom and understanding.

DECLARATION OF FAITH APOSTLE’S CREED

I believe in God the Father Almighty,

Maker of heaven and earth:

And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord;

who was conceived by the Holy Ghost,

born of the virgin Mary,

suffered under Pontius Pilate,

was crucified, dead, and buried.

He descended into hell1;

the third day He rose again from the dead;

He ascended into heaven,

and sitteth on the right hand of God the Father Almighty;

from thence He shall come to judge the quick2 and the dead.

I believe in the Holy Ghost;

the holy catholic3 church,

the communion of saints,

the forgiveness of sins,

the resurrection of the body,

and the life everlasting. Amen.

We boldly

proclaim what

we believe.

Jesus is good to

lead us from the

sorrow and

shame of our sins

into the security

and joy of His

grace.

PRAYER OF APPLICATION Our next hymn was written by a pastor reflecting on the possibility of sep-aration from his congregation.
