THE LAW OF GOD – The Seventh
Commandment
CONFESSION OF SIN [Based upon
The Book of Common Worship, first order]
Most holy and merciful Father, we
acknowledge and confess before You our sinful nature, prone to evil
and slow in good, and all our shortcomings and offenses. You alone
know how often we have sinned-- in wandering from Your ways, in
wasting Your gifts, in forgetting Your love. O Lord, have mercy on
us. We are ashamed and sorry for everything in which we have
displeased you. Teach us to hate our errors. Cleanse us from our
secret faults, and forgive our sins for the sake of your dear Son.
And O most holy and loving Father, help us, we ask You, to live in
Your light and walk in Your ways, according to the commandments of
Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Heidelberg Catechism Question 1
Q: What is your only comfort in life
and death?
A: That I am not my own, but belong
with body and soul, both in life and in death, to my faithful Savior
Jesus Christ. He has fully paid for all my sins with His precious
blood, and has set me free from all the power of the devil. He also
preserves me in such a way that without the will of my heavenly
Father not a hair can fall from my head; indeed, all things must work
together for my salvation. Therefore, by His Holy Spirit He also
assures me of eternal life and makes me heartily willing and ready
from now on to live for Him.
