“Jesus Christ is the atoning sacrifice for
our sins …”
This week in worship brings us another often neglected, but very
comforting teaching from Scripture: our need to confess our sins—and to
find full pardon in Christ Jesus.
This week we will consider together 1
John 1:8 – 2:2. The question on our minds will be:
“How Do You Deal With Sin?” We’ll note the way that
non-Christians handle sin, and the very different way we Christians
handle sin—with confession, forgiveness, avoidance, and proclamation.
You might also note that this Sunday’s 9
AM service will have us welcoming our new members from the past few
months.
