PRELUDE – “Steadfast” by Sandra McCracken

CALL TO WORSHIP – Hebrews 9:28

Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many,

will appear a second time,

not to deal with sin

but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.

“Joy to the World” by George Frideric Handel and Isaac Watts

CONFESSION OF SIN – Ephesians 2:1-3

You were dead in the trespasses and sins

in which you once walked,

following the course of this world,

following the prince of the power of the air,

the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience –

among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh,

carrying out the desires of the body and the mind,

and were by nature children of wrath,

like the rest of mankind.

EVERYONE:

I, a poor sinful person,

confess myself before you,

my Lord God and Maker,

that sadly I have sinned much,

with my senses, thoughts, words, and deeds,

as you, eternal God, know very well.

I regret them and beg your grace.

Amen.

ASSURANCE OF PARDON – Ephesians 2:4-10

But God, being rich in mercy,

because of the great love with which he loved us,

even when we were dead in our trespasses,

made us alive together with Christ

– by grace you have been saved –

and raised us up with him

and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,

so that in the coming ages

he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace

in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

For by grace you have been saved through faith.

And this is not your own doing;

it is the gift of God,

not a result of works,

so that no one may boast.

For we are his workmanship,

created in Christ Jesus for good works,

which God prepared beforehand,

that we should walk in them.
