from the Scots Confession, 1560We confess and acknowledge one God alone, to whom alone we must cleave, whom alone we must serve, whom only we must worship, and in whom alone we put our trust. Who is eternal, infinite, immeasurable, incomprehensible, omnipotent, invisible; one in substance and yet distinct in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. By whom we confess and believe all things in heaven and earth, visible and invisible, to have been created, to be retained in their being, and to be ruled and guided by his inscrutable providence for such end as his eternal wisdom, goodness, and justice have appointed, and to the manifestation of his own glory.

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name.

Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our debts
as we forgive our debtors,And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evilFor Thine is the kingdom and the
power and the glory forever. Amen.
Offering Our GiftsI Lift Up Mine Eyes Allen Pote
I lift up mine eyes to the hills,And I wonder from
where comes my help?My help, it comes from the Lord,The maker of heaven and earth.I lift up mine eyes to the hills,And I wonder, I wonder
where is my help?
He will not let you stumble, He will not let you fall,The Lord is your keeper.The sun will not strike you by dayNor the moon by night,The Lord will keep your life.I lift up mine eyes to the hills,And I wonder, I wonder
where is my help?
The Lord will keep you from all evil.He will keep your life.He will keep your going out, And your coming in
from this time forth,And forevermore.

Every day we face choices: to tell the truth or lie, to cheat or remain faithful. We may want these to be minor decisions, but they aren’t. There’s a lot more going on than meets the eye.
What if our low-stake lives of spiritual mediocrity are a kind of dungeon, and life is actually a great cosmic struggle between good and evil?
The good news is that a victorious life is available if we take hold of weapons of war: “the full armor of God” described by Paul in Ephesians.
All around us is the unseen world, where untold legions of spiritual forces are playing out a cosmic battle for the honor and glory of God. The most important choice you can make is this: “Put on the whole armor of God.” Your very survival depends on it.
“Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.”
—Ephesians 6:10 –18
KIRKIN’ O’ THE TARTANScross North America, people of Scots descent celebrate their cultural and religious heritage by Kirkin’ o’ the Tartans, when they bring the tartan of their clan’s
heritage into church for a day. If you were to ask a native Scot about the ancient tradition of Kirkin’, you might get a blank stare and some muttering about Americans and brigadoonery. Scotland knows nothing about this tradition. It’s something only we colonials do. That makes sense, if you think about it: it’s only the people far from home who need reminders of their heritage and tradition.
Kirkin’ o’ the Tartans likely began during World War II, when famous Scots pastor Rev. Peter Marshall grew discouraged at American isolationist sentiment. He felt Americans had forgotten
their roots across the sea, and wanted to remind Presbyterians that they were sons and daughters of Scotland, had family there and that their own faith had been passed to them by tough Scots under persecution. On April 27, 1941, Rev. Marshall gave a sermon entitled “The Kirkin’ o’ the Tartans,” and the first Kirkin’ was held.
Today, remember how good it is to know your family and your heritage, how we received our faith and at what cost. We lift up only one heritage today: Scotland, with its tartans and bagpipes. Many of us come from different countries and continents, from other tribes and nations, and those paths led us to this place and time. Our deepest heritage, though, is as part of the tribe of Christians, with God as our Father and Christ our brother, for our citizenship is from Heaven.
