1 The Lord s Day January 13, 2019 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14 Prelude Welcome & Visitor Information Opening Music I Am Thine, O Lord - Choir *Call to Worship Psalm 47:6-8 Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises! For God is the King of all the earth; sing praises with a psalm! God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne. *Hymn of Approach No. 53 Praise to the Lord, the Almighty Prayer of Adoration and Confession Assurance of Pardon Romans 8:1-2 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. *Affirmation of Faith Westminster Catechism Question 1 Q1: What is the chief end of man? A: Man s chief end is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever.

2 *Hymn of Faith Come Behold The Wondrous Mystery (Ushers come forward on last verse) Come behold the wondrous mystery In the dawning of the King He the theme of heaven s praises Robed in frail humanity In our longing, in our darkness Now the light of life has come Look to Christ, who condescended Took on flesh to ransom us Come behold the wondrous mystery Slain by death the God of life But no grave could e er restrain Him Praise the Lord; He is alive! What a foretaste of deliverance How unwavering our hope Christ in power resurrected As we will be when He comes Come behold the wondrous mystery Christ the Lord upon the tree In the stead of ruined sinners Hangs the Lamb in victory See the price of our redemption See the Father s plan unfold Bringing many sons to glory Grace unmeasured, love untold What a foretaste of deliverance How unwavering our hope Christ in power resurrected As we will be when He comes Prayer of Dedication & Presentation of Our Tithes & Offerings *Offertory When I Survey (O the Wonderful Cross) When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died My richest gain I count but loss And pour contempt on all my pride See from his head, his hands, his feet Sorrow and love flow mingled down Did e er such love and sorrow meet Or thorns compose so rich a crown Bids me come and die And find that I may truly live All who gather here By grace draw near And bless your name Were the whole realm of nature mine That were a pres-ent far too small Love so amazing so divine Demands my soul, my life, my all Bids me come and die And find that I may truly live All who gather here By grace draw near And bless your name (Children ages 4 years to 2nd grade may be dismissed to Children s Church.

5 Announcements Elders On Call for January 13th January 19th Scott Childress & Shane Everts Deacons On Call for January Ryan Rogers & Tom Humphries Hearing Assistance Available If you need hearing assistance this morning please see one of our officers located at the back of the Sanctuary. Why do we worship the way we do at Carolina? That's a great question! Each church is different in it's style, song selection, and order of service. At Carolina Presbyterian Church, our goal is to do everything in worship in a manner that glorifies God and edifies our congregation. Below is our worship philosophy which attempts to capture these key values. As always, please come and talk with any church leader if you have questions about this. We are thrilled to join with you in the worship of our Lord together! Carolina PCA Philosophy of Worship: At Carolina Presbyterian Church, we desire to worship God in a manner that is both glorifying to God and edifying to our congregation. To glorify God, we seek to worship him with excellence, with an attitude of reverence (considering God s holiness) and celebration (considering God s grace), with a Christcentered focus rooted in reformed theology and founded on the word of God. To edify our congregation, we seek to worship God with some stylistic variation that reflects some of the preferences of our multi-generational church and community. We seek to employ these different styles in a way that promotes love and unity within the same worship service. Stay Connected with Carolina! If you would like to receive communications from Carolina, including prayer requests, schedule updates, and information about churchwide events, please contact the church office to add your to our distribution list.
