Further Reflections on Confessions and Statements of Faith References
We celebrate with joy that Christ has come to rescue us from sin and evil through the work of his son, Jesus Christ. Our World Belongs to God, paragraph 35 identifies the church as “the fellowship of those who confess Jesus as Lord…the bride of Christ…”
Belgic Confession, Article 21 professes how Jesus Christ is a high priest forever and provided for the cleansing of our sins; Article 10 proclaims him as the “true eternal God, the Almighty, whom we invoke, worship and serve.” Heidelberg Catechism, Lord’s Day 1, Question and Answer 2 calls us to “live and die in the joy of this comfort” and “to thank God for such deliverance.”

Musical Suggestion
Piano Only Accompaniment:
Introduction:
- The suggested introduction is very rhythmic, and if you are not comfortable setting the tempo from this first line, play through the Refrain for the Intro. It is bright and invites congregational singing.
