1 Hixson Presbyterian Church December 17, 2017 Prelude Greetings Greg Baney Call to Worship Psalm 103:1, Advent Candle Lighting Angels, Johnson Family Prayer of Preparation & Confession Responsive Reading WSC # God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman God rest ye merry, gentlemen; Let nothing you dismay Remember Christ our Savior Was born on Christmas day To save us all from Satan s pow r When we were gone astray O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy! O tidings of comfort and joy From God our heav nly Father, A blessed angel came; And unto certain shepherds Brought tidings of the same; How that in Bethlehem was born The Son of God by name. O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy! O tidings of comfort and joy! Now to the Lord sing praises, All you within this place, And with true love and brotherhood sing God s amazing grace; This holy child of Christmas who would all our sins erase, O tidings of comfort and joy, Comfort and joy! O Tidings of Comfort and Joy Hark the Herald Angels Sing Hark! The herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King; Peace on earth, and mercy mild, God and sinners reconciled! Joyful, all ye nations, rise, join the triumph of the skies; With th angelic host proclaim, Christ is born in Bethlehem! Hark! The herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King. Christ, by highest heav n adored; Christ, the everlasting Lord! Late in time behold Him come, offspring of the Virgin s womb: Veiled in flesh the Godhead see; hail th incarnate Deity, Pleased as man with men to dwell, Jesus, our Emmanuel. Hark! The herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King. Hail the heav n-born Prince of Peace! Hail the Sun of Righteousness! Light and life to all He brings, ris n with healing in His wings. Mild He lays His glory by, born that man no more may die, Born to raise the sons of earth, born to give them second birth. Hark! The herald angels sing, Glory to the newborn King. It Came Upon the Midnight Clear It came upon the midnight clear, that glorious song of old, From angels bending near the earth To touch their harps of gold;

2 Choir Anthem Angels From the Realms of Glory Prayer of Intercession & Offertory Peace on the earth, goodwill to men, From heav n s all-gracious King ; The world in solemn stillness lay to hear the angels sing. And ye, beneath life s crushing load, Whose forms are bending low, Who toil along the climbing way with painful steps and slow, Look now! For glad and golden Hours come swiftly on the wing: O rest beside the weary road and hear the angels sing. For lo, the days are hast ning on, by prophets seen of old, When with the ever-circling years Shall come the time foretold, When peace shall over all the earth its ancient splendors fling, And the whole world give back the song Which now the angels sing. God s Tithes and Our Offerings *Please fill out the friendship folder found at the end of the pew* Children Pre-K through 1st grade are invited to Children s Church Offertory He Who is Mighty Sermon The Final Word Robert Johnson Hebrews 1:1-3 Benediction Postlude Joy to the World Joy to the world! the Lord is come; let earth receive her King; let ev ry heart prepare Him room, and heav n and nature sing, and heav n and nature sing, and heav n, and heav n and nature sing. Joy to the earth! the Savior reigns; let men their songs employ; While fields and floods, rocks, hills,and plains repeat the sounding joy, repeat the sounding joy, repeat, repeat the sounding joy. No more let sins and sorrows grow, Nor thorns infest the ground; He comes to make His blessings flow far as the curse is found, far as the curse is found, far as, far as the curse is found. He rules the world with truth and grace, and makes the nations prove the glories of His righteousness, and wonders of His love, and wonders of His love, and wonders, wonders of His love. Congregation Standing Please feel free to sit as necessary CCLI#540356

3 Why Do We Do That? Benediction: At the conclusion of our morning worship the pastor typically has everyone rise to receive the benediction. When our pastor pronounces this he is speaking the blessing (which is what benediction means) of the Lord into our hearts just as Aaron was commanded to do in Number 6: Often people symbolize receiving that blessing by extending their hands as you would to receive a gift. This is a picture of the blessings we receive from the Lord and it reminds us of His faithful care as we leave to worship and serve in our daily lives.

4 Sermon Notes - Robert Johnson The Final Word Hebrews 1;1-3 First, The Final Word (1-2) John 1:1 & 14 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father. Michael Card When the Father s Wisdom wanted to communicate His love, He spoke it in one final perfect Word. He spoke the Incarnation and then so was born the Son. His final word was Jesus, He needed no other one. Spoke flesh and blood so He could bleed and make a way Divine. And so was born the baby who would die to make it mine. Second, Who He Is (2) Col. 2:9 In him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily 2 Cor. 4:6 See glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Third, What He Did (3) Titus 2:14 Who gave himself for us to redeem us from all lawlessness and to purify for himself a people for his own possession who are zealous for good works. 1 John 1:7 The blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin John Donne His birth and his death were but one continual act, and his Christmas Day and his Good Friday are but the morning and evening of one and the same day. Finally, What He Is Doing (3) Heb 8:1 Now the point in what we are saying is this: we have such a high priest, one who is seated at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in heaven Heb. 2:17-18 He had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people. For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted. Heb 4:15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. 1 John 2:1 My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. Heb 9:24 For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf. Rom 8:34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died more than that, who was raised who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. Heb 7:25 Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them. Matt. 28:18 All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Heb 4:16 Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Matt. 25:24-25 the one talent came forward, saying, Master, I knew you to be a hard man so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground.

(January 7th through March 11th) Rm. M-2. Taught by Jeff Siren, Steve Hutchings, and Don Carver. Developing Christian Character In an age and time when cultural moral standards compete with and are antagonistic towards the teaching of scripture, it is more important than ever to practice and develop true Christian (Christ-like) character. Come participate in a video-facilitated discussion taught by R.C. Sproul on the topic of developing Christian character. Each segment is approximately minutes followed by a facilitated discussion.
