Declaring God’s Truth


Christ”

O most merciful God, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Who pardons all such as truly repent and turn to You, we humbly confess our sins and implore Your mercy.

We have not loved You with a pure heart, neither have we loved our neighbor as ourselves.

We have not done justly, nor loved mercy, nor walked humbly with You, our God.

According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, blot out our iniquity.

Create in us a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within us; through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

What are we to do with It? "Ask" when you do not know how to judge. "Seek" which

is the effort of the sanctified man after the mind of God. "Knock," perpetually making application.

We cannot live one day in office, or shop, or ordinary place of action, and know when to discriminate, and when not to judge, except as we live every day and every hour asking, seeking, knocking.”
