Reading of the Law of God
You shall not murder. Exodus 20.13
Confession of Sin
Our Father, we come to You aware that we have not kept this commandment. We so often find ourselves angry and impatient, thinking of our own well-being first. We understand that in these and other ways we murder. We have broken Your Law. We acknowledge our sin before You and ask that You would be merciful to us sinners for Jesus’ sake alone. Amen.
Declaration of Pardon
For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive in the spirit. 1 Peter 3.18
