2 PRAISE Choral Introit Be Still (The Holy One is Here) 8.30am In The Light Of God Holy Spirit, Living Breath Of God 10.30am 5pm Call to Worship from Luther s Preface For His Commentary To Romans [PLEASE STAND] Mr Richard Khoo; 8.30am Mr Wendell Wong; 10.30am Mr Low Aik Lim; 5pm Leader To fulfill God s Law is to do with willingness and love the works which the moral Law requires. People Such willingness is bestowed upon us by the Holy Spirit through faith in Jesus Christ. Leader But the Spirit is not given except through the Word of God which preaches Christ. People As Paul said: If Thou shalt confess with Thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in Thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, Thou shalt be saved. Leader So faith makes righteous for it brings the Spirit through the merits of Christ. People And the Spirit makes the heart free and willing as the Law requires; and then good works proceed of themselves from faith. Leader Grace is the good will or favour of God toward us which moved Him to share Christ and the Holy Spirit with us. People Therefore, when we believe in Christ, we have the beginning of the Spirit in us. Leader Faith is a divine work in us, which transforms us, begets us anew from God, bringing with it the Holy Spirit. ALL O this saving faith is a living, busy, active, powerful thing! Glory be to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen. Hymn of Praise Holy, Holy, Holy!
