*Public Confession of Sin
Our Father, you are the only true and living God who made the heavens and the earth. All things owe their existence to you and serve to magnify your name. Through the work of your Son and the power of your Spirit you have delivered us from the guilt of sin and the dominion of Satan. Yet in our flesh we are still prone to rebel against your Word, to murmur against your commands, to complain against your providence, to do the will of the flesh, and to heed the voice of the devil. Our fleshly desires are strong and our ungodly urges run deep. O how wicked and depraved are the feelings within! Indeed, from our hearts have proceeded evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, and slander. Apart from your indwelling Spirit there is no good within us. Please extend mercy and forgive our sins for Jesus' sake. Amen.

Minister: How does Christ execute the office of a king?
Unison: Christ executes the office of a king in calling out of the world a people to himself, and giving them officers, laws, and censures by which he visibly governs them; in bestowing saving grace upon his elect, rewarding their obedience and correcting them for their sins, preserving and supporting them under all their temptations and sufferings, restraining and overcoming all their enemies, and powerfully ordering all things for his own glory, and their good; and also in taking vengeance on the rest, who know not God and obey not the gospel.
