"This
is the day that the Lord has made,
let
us rejoice and be glad in it."
Psalm 118:24
*CALL TO WORSHIP:
Psalm 30:4-5
Sing praises to the
LORD, O you his saints, and give thanks to his holy name. For his
anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping
may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning.
*OPENING HYMN: (#38) Immortal,
Invisible, God Only Wise
PRAYER OF ADORATION AND INVOCATION
*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, forever and ever. Amen.
*GLORIA PATRI (#735)
THE LAW OF GOD – The Eighth
Commandment
CONFESSION OF SIN [Composed by
PCA Minister, Rev. Jeffrey White]
Lord Jesus Christ, though being in very
nature God, when You came to redeem us You humbled Yourself and made
Yourself nothing. Though You were rich, for our sakes You became
poor, so that through Your poverty we might become rich. We confess
how unlike You we are in our attitudes and actions. We strive for
recognition and acclaim from others, and we sulk and become bitter if
we do not get it. We look out for our own needs and concerns,
failing to care for others except for when it serves our own
purposes. Forgive us our sin and renew our hearts. Grant us to
realize that we only achieve greatness and gain our lives by giving
them away. Work in us by the power of Your Spirit so that we become
more like You and so bring glory to our Father in heaven. Amen.
DECLARATION OF PARDON [Isaiah
1:18]
Come now, let us reason together, says
the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white
as snow;
though they are red like crimson, they
shall become like wool.

*CONFESSION OF FAITH The
Apostles' Creed, # 845
I believe in God the Father
Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his
only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, and born of
the virgin Mary. He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified,
died, and was buried; he descended into hell. The third day he rose
again from the dead. He ascended into heaven and is seated at the
right hand of God the Father Almighty. From there he will come to
judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit, the
holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of
sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen.
(The word “catholic” means
“throughout the world.”)
