Words of Assurance: September 4, 2011

(based on Romans 13: 8-14 and Matthew 18: 15-20)

Jesus Christ has called us to lay aside the works of darkness
and to confess our sins and be reconciled to God.
You have confessed your sin in the company of God’s people.
Your forgiveness, declared on earth, is sealed in heaven.

Sisters and Brothers,
........your sins are forgiven;
................be at peace.
