1 Aslan a man! said Mr. Beaver sternly. Certainly not. I tell you he is the King of the wood and the son of the great Emperor-Beyond-the-Sea. Don t you know who is the King of Beasts? Aslan is a lion the Lion, the great Lion. Ooh! said Susan, I d thought he was a man. Is he quite safe? I shall feel rather nervous about meeting a lion. That you will, dearie, and no mistake, said Mrs. Beaver, if there s anyone who can appear before Aslan without their knees knocking, they re either braver than most or else just silly. Then he isn t safe? said Lucy. Safe? said Mr. Beaver. Don t you hear what Mrs. Beaver tells you? Who said anything about safe? Course he isn t safe. But he s good. He s the King, I tell you. C. S. Lewis, The Lion, The Witch, And The Wardrobe PUBLIC WORSHIP OCTOBER 7, 2018 THE WORD CALL TO WORSHIP Isaiah 60:1 Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD has risen upon you.
2 Crown Him With Many Crowns Text: Matthew Bridges Music: Diademata, George Elvey Public Domain Crown him the Lord of love, behold his hands and side, those wounds, yet visible above, in beauty glorified. No angel in the sky can fully bear that sight, But downward bends his burning eye at mysteries so bright. Crown him the Lord of life, who triumphed over the grave, and rose victorious in the strife for those he came to save. His glories now we sing, who died, and rose on high, who died eternal life to bring, and lives that death may die. Crown him the Lord of peace, whose power a scepter sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease, and all be prayer and praise. His reign shall know no end, and round his pierced feet fair flowers of paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet. Crown him the Lord of Heaven, enthroned in worlds above, crown him the King to whom is given the wondrous name of Love. Crown him with many crowns, as thrones before him fall; crown him, ye kings, with many crowns, for he is King of all.
3 PRAYER OF INVOCATION He is risen! He is risen indeed! Let us pray CALL TO CONFESSION OF SIN John 8:34 Truly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin. CONFESSION OF SIN Heavenly Father, our thoughts and motives cannot be hidden from your sight. Our self-pity and pride, our cowardice and sloth, our anger and envy are laid bare before your eyes and ours. We open ourselves to you and ask that you forgive us and cover us in Christ. Let us hear your voice telling us that his blood is our peace, his death our freedom, his smiting our safety. And let our hearts know that your service is perfect freedom. In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. (Silent confession) ASSURANCE OF FORGIVENESS John 8:36 If the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. May the peace of Christ be with you. And also with you! OFFERING Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you. DOXOLOGY Praise God, from whom all blessings flow! Praise him, all creatures here below! Praise him above, ye heavenly host! Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost! Amen.
4 NEW TESTAMENT READING Acts 4:23-31 The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God! PRAYERS OF THE PEOPLE The Lord be with you. And also with you. Let us pray Our Lord Jesus Christ, you rose from death as the King of kings and the Lord of lords: We pray for our leaders, near and far, that they might love justice and mercy; we pray for our local leaders, that they might promote the peace of the city. Our Lord Jesus Christ, you rose from death in triumph over evil and oppression: We ask you to restrain the wickedness in our city by your Law; we ask you to destroy the wickedness in our own hearts by your Spirit. Our Lord Jesus Christ, you rose from death as the Prince of peace: We pray for peace between nations in your world; we pray that this congregation might live in your peace together; we ask you to come again soon to fully establish your peace on earth. Our Lord Jesus Christ, you rose from death to reconcile us to God: We pray for our friends who do not yet know you; we pray for the deepening of our faith in the Gospel of grace. Our Lord Jesus Christ, you rose from death to reveal life and immortality through the gospel: We pray for comfort for those who are suffering in grief, in poverty, in sickness, and in injustice. Our Lord Jesus Christ, you rose from death as our sympathetic High Priest: Please hear us as we bring you our requests. (Silent prayer) Our Lord Jesus Christ, we pray now in the words you taught us: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. 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 evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
5 Thou Who Wast Rich Beyond All Splendor Text: Frank Houghton Music: French Carol Melody Public Domain
6 Rejoice In Christ Your King Text: Edward H. Plumtree Music: Matthew H. Curl Used by Permission At last the march shall end; the wearied ones shall rest, the pilgrims reach their home at last, Jerusalem the blest. Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice, give thanks and sing! Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice in Christ your King! Praise God, who reigns on high, the Lord whom we adore: the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, one God forevermore. Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice, give thanks and sing! Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice in Christ your King!
7 OLD TESTAMENT READING Psalm 2 1 Why do the nations rage and the peoples plot in vain? 2 The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the LORD and against his Anointed, saying, 3 Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us. 4 He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord holds them in derision. 5 Then he will speak to them in his wrath, and terrify them in his fury, saying, 6 As for me, I have set my King on Zion, my holy hill. 7 I will tell of the decree: the LORD said to me, You are my Son; today I have begotten you. 8 Ask of me, and I will make the nations your heritage, and the ends of the earth your possession. 9 You shall break them with a rod of iron and dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. 10 Now therefore, O kings, be wise; be warned, O rulers of the earth. 11 Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling. 12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath is quickly kindled. Blessed are all who take refuge in him. The Word of the Lord. Thanks be to God! SERMON God s Son Is The King (Rev. Eric Costa)

9 THE UPPER ROOM CONFESSION OF FAITH The Apostles Creed What do you believe? I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, dead, and buried. He descended into hell. * The third day he rose again from the dead. He ascended into heaven, and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. From there he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy catholic church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and the life everlasting. Amen. PASSING OF THE PEACE Colossians 3:15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful. (Greet one another with the words, The peace of Christ be with you. ) INVITATION TO THE LORD S TABLE AND PRAYER WORDS OF INSTITUTION 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 THE MYSTERIUM FIDEI 1 Corinthians 11:26; 5:7-8 Let us proclaim the mystery of faith. Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again. Christ our Passover is sacrificed for us. Therefore let us keep the feast. The gifts of God for the people of God. GIVING OF THE BREAD AND CUP (All who confess faith in Jesus Christ may partake of this Sacrament: baptized members of a congregation that proclaims the Gospel, who are at peace with God and with their brothers and sisters in Christ, and who seek God s grace to live more faithfully for him in this world. Please come forward after the musicians. The glasses on your right contain grape juice for those who do not want wine. There are gluten-free crackers on the table. An Elder is available for prayer upon request [James 5:13-16].) * When the Creed states that Jesus descended into hell, we understand it to mean that he suffered the holy wrath of God for the sins of his people. Or, universal.
10 When I Survey The Wondrous Cross Text: Isaac Watts Music: Michael James 1986 Word Music, LLC
11 Who Is Like The Lord, Our God? (Psalm 113) Text: Wendell Kimbrough Music: Bruce Benedict & Wendell Kimbrough 2013 Cardiphonia Music Though equal to God in his glory, Christ Jesus became like a slave; he humbled himself in obedience to death, and the cross, and the grave. Victorious, he rose to the highest; in glory, the Savior was raised. His name above all names exalted; the heavens and earth sing his praise. Who is like the Lord, our God? Who with glory fills the sky? But humbles himself with the broken to dwell, who is like our God? O saints, fix your eyes on the Savior and count all your righteousness loss. Be found in his love and his favor, and share in his death on the cross. That all of his power in vict ry, imparted to you, may abound; and sharing the sufferings of Jesus, you share in his glory and crown. Who is like the Lord, our God? Who with glory fills the sky? But humbles himself with the broken to dwell, who is like our God?
12 BENEDICTION Revelation 1:4-5 Grace to you and peace from him who is and who was and who is to come, and from the seven spirits who are before his throne, and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. ~ Remember: every gathering is an opportunity to invite friends, to introduce others to the Christ-centered community and life of the church!
