CORPORATE CONFESSION OF SIN
Heavenly Father, to enrich us will not diminish your fullness; All your lovingkindness is in your Son, we bring him to you in the arms of faith, we urge his saving name as the one who died for us, we plead his blood to pay for our debts of wrong. Accept his worthiness for our unworthiness, his sinlessness for our transgressions, his purity for our uncleanness, his sincerity for our guile, his truth for our deceits, his meekness for our pride, his constancy for our backslidings, his love for our enmity, his fullness for our emptiness, his faithfulness for our treachery, his obedience for our lawlessness, his glory for our shame, his devotedness for our waywardness, his holy life for our unchaste ways, his righteousness for our dead works, his death for our lives. Forgive us through the faithful name of your Son Jesus, Amen.
SILENT CONFESSION
ASSURANCE OF PARDON
1 Peter 1:9-10 “But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were not a people, but now you are God’s people; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.”
