CORPORATE CONFESSION OF SIN
Eternal God, our judge and redeemer, we confess that we have tried to hide from you, for we have done wrong. In your presence we confess our sinfulness, our shortcomings, and our offenses against you. You alone know how often we have sinned in wandering from your ways, in wasting your gifts, in forgetting your love. Have mercy on us, O Lord, for we are ashamed and sorry for all we have done to displease you. We have lived for ourselves, and apart from you. We have turned from our neighbors, and refused to bear the burdens of others. We have ignored the pain of the world, and passed by the hungry, the poor, and the oppressed. Have mercy on us, O Lord, for we are ashamed and sorry for all we have done to displease you. Forgive our sins and free us from selfishness, that we may choose your will and obey your commandments; through Jesus Christ our Savior, Amen.
SILENT CONFESSION
ASSURANCE OF PARDON
Romans 10:9-11 “if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is justified, and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, “For the Scripture says, ‘Everyone who believes in him will not be put to shame.’”
