The Call to Worship

 

 

Isaiah 44:24-25

 

 

Only in the LORD, it shall be said of me, are righteousness and strength; to him shall come and be ashamed all who were increased against him. In the LORD all the offspring of Israel shall be justified and shall glory.

Confession of Faith

The 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 Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell, the third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty. From thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead.
 

I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy universal church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting.
 

Amen.

Covenantal Prayer

Kept by God

​

JEHOVAH GOD,

 

Thou Creator, Upholder, Proprietor of all things, I cannot escape from thy presence or control, nor do I desire to do so.

 

My privilege is to be under the agency of omnipotence, righteousness, wisdom, patience, mercy, grace.

 

Thou art love with more than parental affection; I admire thy heart, adore thy wisdom, stand in awe of thy power, abase myself before thy purity.

 

It is the discovery of thy goodness alone that can banish my fear, allure me into thy presence, help me to bewail and confess my sins.

​

When I review my past guilt and am conscious of my present unworthiness I tremble to come to thee, I whose foundation is in the dust, I who have condemned thy goodness, defied thy power, trampled upon thy love, rendered myself worthy of eternal death.

 

But my recovery cannot spring from any cause in me, I can destroy but cannot save myself.

 

Yet thou hast laid help on One that is mighty, for there is mercy with thee, and exceeding riches in thy kindness through Jesus.

 

May I always feel my need of him. 

 

Let thy restored joy be my strength; May it keep me from lusting after the world, bear up heart and mind in loss of comforts, enliven me in the valley of death, work in me the image of the heavenly, and give me to enjoy the first fruits of spirituality, such as angels and departed saints know.

 

Amen.

​

​

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.

 

Amen.

Sermon
Hebrews 4:14-5:10

Passive & Active Obedience

 

​

[14] Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. [15] For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. [16] Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. (ESV)

​

[1] For every high priest chosen from among men is appointed to act on behalf of men in relation to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. [2] He can deal gently with the ignorant and wayward, since he himself is beset with weakness. [3] Because of this he is obligated to offer sacrifice for his own sins just as he does for those of the people. [4] And no one takes this honor for himself, but only when called by God, just as Aaron was.

 

[5] So also Christ did not exalt himself to be made a high priest, but was appointed by him who said to him,

 

    “You are my Son,

        today I have begotten you”;

    

    [6] as he says also in another place,

 

    “You are a priest forever,

        after the order of Melchizedek.”

    

    [7] In the days of his flesh, Jesus offered up prayers and supplications, with loud cries and tears, to him who was able to save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverence. [8] Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. [9] And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, [10] being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek. (ESV)
