Order of Worship

Psalm 29:1-4; 9-11Ascribe to the Lord Glory

Ascribe to the LORD, O heavenly beings, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; worship the LORD in the splendor of holiness.

The voice of the LORD is over the waters; the God of glory thunders, the LORD, over many waters. The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

The voice of the LORD makes the deer give birth and strips the forests bare, and in his temple all cry, “Glory!” The LORD sits enthroned over the flood; the LORD sits enthroned as king forever. May the LORD give strength to his people! May the LORD bless his people with peace!

Philippians 2:5-11Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Sermon:“The Son that Pays”

Matthew 17:22-27

The end of His mission is near. Here, a definitive step in the journey is taken. Jesus is Son of God, Son of Man—very God /and/ very man. After announcing that He will be murdered, He manifests a glimpse of His glory largely to reassure His disciples that He is the divine Christ—/the beloved Son/. He who is glorious and mighty will be crucified, but this will be a fulfillment not a failure of His own mission. Now, after He gives a lesson in the valley of veils, He states it again. He will be betrayed unto death and then be raised on the third day. With the mounting intensity of the approaching cross, this passage begins a new series. In their last days together in Galilee, Jesus deliberately prepares His disciples for continuance in His absence. The series is focused on living as His church. It all starts with the Son. The passage is both direct and subtle, clear and obscure. Its message is deeply significant and implicates both Him redeeming us and us reflecting Him. The sons are free. Yet, Jesus is the Son that pays.

JerusalemSee Him in JerusalemWalking where the crowds areOnce these streets had sung to HimNow they cry for murderSuch a frail and lonely ManHolding up the heavy crossSee Him walking in JerusalemOn the road to save us

See Him there upon the hillHear the scorn and laughterSilent as a lamb He waitsPraying to the FatherSee the King who made the sunAnd the moon and shining starsLet the soldiers hold and nail Him downSo that He could save them

See Him there upon the crossNow no longer breathingDust that formed the watching crowdsTakes the blood of JesusFeel the earth is shaking nowSee the veil is split in twoAnd He stood before the wrath of GodShielding sinners with His blood

See the empty tomb todayDeath could not contain HimOnce the Servant of the worldNow in victory reigningLift your voices to the OneWho is seated on the throneSee Him in the New JerusalemPraise the One who saved us!

Christ Our Hope In Life and DeathWhat is our hope in life and death?Christ alone, Christ alone.What is our only confidence?That our souls to Him belong.Who holds our days within His hand?What comes, apart from His command?And what will keep us to the end?The love of Christ, in which we stand.

O sing hallelujah!Our hope springs eternal;O sing hallelujah!Now and ever we confessChrist our hope in life and death.

What truth can calm the troubled soul?God is good, God is good.Where is His grace and goodness known?In our great Redeemer’s blood.Who holds our faith when fears arise?Who stands above the stormy trial?Who sends the waves that bring us nighUnto the shore, the rock of Christ?

Unto the grave, what shall we sing?“Christ, He lives; Christ, He lives!”And what reward will heaven bring?Everlasting life with Him.There we will rise to meet the Lord,Then sin and death will be destroyed,And we will feast in endless joy,When Christ is ours forevermore.

It Is Well with My SoulIt Is Well with My SoulWhen peace, like a river, attendeth my way,When sorrows like sea billows rollWhat ever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say,“It is well, it is well with my soul.”

(Chorus)It is wellwith my soul,It is well, it is well with my soul.

Tho’ Satan should buffet, tho’ trials should come,Let this blest assurance control,That Christ hath regarded my helpless estate,And hath shed His own blood for my soul.

My sin- O the joy of this glorious thought-My sin, not in part, but the whole,Is nailed to the cross, and I bear it no more:Praise the Lord, Praise the Lord, O my soul!

And, Lord, haste the dayWhen my faith shall be sight,The clouds be rolled back as a scroll,The trump shall resoundAnd the Lord shall descend“Even so” - it is well with my soul.

In Christ AloneIn Christ alone my hope is found.He is my Light, my strength, my song.This Cornerstone, this solid groundfirm through the fiercest drought and storm.What heights of love! What depths of peace,when fears are stilled, when strivings cease.My Comforter, my all in all,here in the love of Christ I stand.

In Christ alone, who took on flesh,fullness of God in helpless Babe.This gift of love and righteousnessscorned by the ones He came to save.‘Till on that cross as Jesus diedthe wrath of God was satisfied,for every sin on Him was laid.Here in the death of Christ I live.

There in the ground His body lay,Light of the world by darkness slain.Then bursting forth in glorious day,up from the grave He rose again.And as He stands in victory,sin’s curse has lost its grip on me.For I am His, and He is mine,bought with the precious blood of Christ.

No guilt in life, no fear in death:This is the power of Christ in me.From life’s first cry to final breath,Jesus commands my destiny.No power of hell, no scheme of mancan ever pluck me from His hand.‘Till He returns, or calls me home,here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.

Shepherd’s Reading:Matthew 17:22–27

As they were gathering in Galilee, Jesus said to them, “The Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him, and he will be raised on the third day.” And they were greatly distressed.

When they came to Capernaum, the collectors of the two-drach-ma tax went up to Peter and said, “Does your teacher not pay the tax?” He said, “Yes.” And when he came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first, saying, “What do you think, Simon? From whom do kings of the earth take toll or tax? From their sons or from others?” And when he said, “From others,” Jesus said to him, “Then the sons are free. However, not to give offense to them, go to the sea and cast a hook and take the first fish that comes up, and when you open its mouth you will find a shekel. Take that and give it to them for me and for yourself.”

Question:

What is your only comfort in life and in death?

Answer:

That I am not my own,but belong—body and soul,in life and in death—to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ.

He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood,and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil.He also watches over me in such a waythat not a hair can fall from my headwithout the will of my Father in heaven;in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.

Because I belong to him,Christ, by his Holy Spirit,assures me of eternal lifeand makes me wholeheartedly willing and readyfrom now on to live for him.

– from the Heidelberg Catechism - Q1 (1563)
