CONFESSION OF SIN – From the Savoy Liturgy (1661)
O most great, most just and gracious God;
you are of purer eyes than to behold iniquity;
but you have promised mercy through Jesus Christ
to all who repent and believe in him.
Therefore, we confess that we are sinful by nature
and that we have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.
We have neglected and abused
your holy worship and your holy name.
We have dealt unjustly and uncharitably with our neighbors.
We have not sought first your kingdom and righteousness.
We have not been content with our daily bread.
You have revealed your wonderful love to us in Christ
and offered us pardon and salvation in him;
but we have turned away.
We have run into temptation;
and the sin that we should have hated,
we have committed.
Have mercy upon us, most merciful Father!
We confess you alone are our hope.

ASSURANCE OF PARDON – Hebrews 7:25
Christ Jesus is able to save to the uttermost
those who draw near to God through him,
since he always lives to make intercession for them.

“Now Why This Fear?” by Augustus Toplady and Doug Plank
AFFIRMATION OF FAITH – New Hampshire Confession of Faith, Article 4
We believe that the salvation of sinners is wholly of grace;
through the mediatorial offices of the Son of God;
who by the appointment of the Father,
freely took upon him our nature,
yet without sin;
honored the divine law by his personal obedience,
and by his death made a full atonement for our sins;
that having risen from the dead he is now enthroned in heaven;
and uniting in his wonderful person the tenderest sympathies
with divine perfections,
he is every way qualified to be a suitable,
a compassionate,
and an all-sufficient Savior.
PRAYER
CHILDREN’S BLESSING & DISMISSAL – New City Catechism Q28
What happens after death
to those not united to Christ by faith?
They will be cast out
from the presence of God,
into hell,
to be justly punished,
forever.
