Prayer of Confession

Almighty God, to whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hidden; we confess that we have followed too much the devices and desires of our own hearts, and have offended against your holy laws. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love you, and worthily magnify your holy name, through Christ our Lord. Amen.

The Gospel’s Assurance of Pardon: Galatians 4:4–5

But when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons.

Doxology 733 Lasst Uns Erfreuen

Confession of Faith: Westminster Larger Catechism Question 19

Question: What is God’s providence toward the angels?
Answer: God by his providence permitted some of the angels, willfully and irrecoverably, to fall into sin and damnation, limiting and ordering that, and all their sins, to his own glory; and established the rest in holiness and happiness; employing them all, at his pleasure, in the administrations of his power, mercy, and justice.
