Hymn
Come Ye Sinners
Come, ye sinners, poor and wretched,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus, ready, stands to save you,
Full of pity, joined with power.
He is able, He is able;
He is willing; doubt no more.
Come ye thirsty, come, and welcome,
God’s free bounty glorify;
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings you nigh.
Without money, without money
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.
Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
Bruised and broken by the fall;
If you tarry ’til you’re better,
You will never come at all.
Not the righteous, not the righteous;
Sinners Jesus came to call.
Let not conscience make you linger,
Nor of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness He requires
Is to feel your need of Him.
This He gives you, this He gives you,
’Tis the Spirit’s rising beam.
Lo! The Incarnate God, ascended;
Pleads the merit of His blood.
Venture on Him; venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude.
None but Jesus, none but Jesus
Can do helpless sinners good.
None but Jesus, none but Jesus
Can do helpless sinners good.

Confession of SIN
1 Corinthians 13.1-3
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
ASSURANCE OF PARDON
1 John 1:7-9
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse from all unrighteousness.
HYMN
In the Presence of a Holy God
In the presence of a holy God
I bow down and I adore
You reveal the secrets of my heart
And I’m shaken to the core
In the presence of a holy God
There’s new meaning now to grace
You took all my sins upon Yourself
And I can only stand amazed, and I cry
Chorus:
Holy, holy, holy God
How awesome is Your name
Holy, holy, holy God
How majestic is Your reign
And I am changed
In the presence of a holy God
In the presence of Your infinite might
I’m so small and frail and weak
When I glimpse Your power and wisdom, Lord
I have no words left to speak, and I cry
Chorus
In the presence of Your glory
All my crowns lie in the dust
You are righteous in Your judgments, Lord
You are faithful, true, and just, and I cry
Chorus twice

CONFESSION OF FAITH
Heidelberg Catechism (Questions 12-15)
Q. 12. According to God’s righteous judgment we deserve punishment both in this world and forever after; how then can we escape punishment and return to God’s favor?
A. God requires that His justice be satisfied. Therefore, the claims of His justice must be paid in full, either by ourselves or another.
Q.13. Can we pay this debt ourselves?
A. Certainly not. Actually, we increase our guilt every day.
Q. 14. Can another creature—any at all—pay this debt for us?
A. No. To begin with, God will not punish another creature for what a human is guilty of. Besides, no mere creature can bear the weight of God’s eternal anger against sin and release others from it.
Q. 15. What kind of mediator and deliverer should we look for then?
A. One who is truly human and truly righteous, yet more powerful than all creatures, that is, one who is also true God.
HYMN
Amazing Grace (Hymn #460)
Hymn
Thy Mercy My God
Thy mercy my God, is the theme of my song,
the joy of my heart and the boast of my tongue.
Thy free grace alone from the first to the last
hath won my affections and bound my soul fast.
Without thy sweet mercy I could not live here;
Sin would reduce me to utter despair;
But through thy free goodness my spirits revive
And he that first made me still keeps me alive.
Thy mercy is more than a match for my heart
Which wonders to feel its own hardness depart;
Dissolved by thy goodness I fall to the ground
And weep for the praise of the mercy I’ve found.
Thy mercy in Jesus exempts me from hell;
It’s glories I’ll sing and its wonders I’ll tell;
‘Twas Jesus my all, as He hung on the tree,
who opened the channel of mercy for me.
Great Father of mercies thy goodness I own
And the covenant love of thy crucified son;
All praise to the spirit whose whisper divine
Seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine.
All praise to the spirit whose whisper divine
Seals mercy and pardon and righteousness mine.

HIS TITHES & OUR OFFERINGS
Sermon
Branches, Love One Another (John 15.12-17)
Dave Bentz, Pastor
Hymn
O Lord, My Rock and My Redeemer
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer
Greatest treasure of my longing soul
My God, like You there is no other
True delight is found in You alone
Your grace, a well too deep to fathom
Your love exceeds the heaven's reach
Your truth, a fount of perfect wisdom
My highest good and my unending need
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer
Strong defender of my weary heart
My sword to fight the cruel deceiver
And my shield against his hateful darts
My song, when enemies surround me
My hope, when tides of sorrow rise
My joy, when trials are abounding
Your faithfulness, my refuge in the night
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer
Gracious Savior of my ruined life
My guilt and cross laid on Your shoulders
In my place You suffered bled and died
You rose, the grave and death are conquered
You broke my bonds of sin and shame
You rose, the grave and death are conquered
You broke my bonds of sin and shame
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer
May all my days bring glory to Your Name
May all my days bring glory to Your Name
