Confession of Sin
Eternal Father, You are good beyond all thought, but we are vile, wretched, miserable, blind; Our lips are ready to confess, but our hearts are slow to feel and our ways reluctant to amend. We bring our souls to You. Break them, wound them, bend them, mold them. Unmask to us sin’s deformity, that we may hate it, abhor it, flee from it. Our abilities have been weapons of revolt against You; As rebels we have misused our strength, and served the foul adversary of Your kingdom. Give us grace to bewail our senseless folly; Grant us to know that the way of transgression is hard; That evil paths are wretched paths; That to depart from You is to lose all good. We have seen the purity and beauty of Your perfect law, the happiness of those in whose hearts it reigns, the calm dignity of the walk to which it calls; Yet daily we violate and condemn its precepts. All these sins we mourn, lament, and for them cry, “Pardon.” Work in us more profound and abiding repentance; Give us the fulness of a godly grief which is ever powerful, and ever confident; Grant that our repentance will enable us to see more clearly the glory and brightness of the cross of Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray. Amen.
WLC Q. 168. What is the Lord’s Supper?
A. The Lord’s supper is a sacrament of the New Testament, wherein, by giving and receiving bread and wine according to the appointment of Jesus Christ, his death is showed forth; and they that worthily communicate feed upon his body and blood, to their spiritual nourishment and growth in grace; have their union and communion with him confirmed; testify and renew their thankfulness, and engagement to God, and their mutual love and fellowship each with other, as members of the same mystical body.
