Peace After Pardon: Confession and Communion in Christ

In this sermon, Pastor unpacks the riches of Christian worship by showing how the order of liturgy is not man-made tradition but God’s covenant pattern revealed from Leviticus to the Lord’s Supper. Just like the farmer who overlooked acres of diamonds beneath his feet, many Christians miss the treasures God places before us each Lord’s Day—His Word, confession, absolution, and the table. Through Scripture, we see that worship is more than routine; it is covenant renewal. God speaks, we confess, He forgives, and then He welcomes us to His table in fellowship and peace. This sermon calls us to raise our view of the Lord’s Day, to confess our sins specifically, hear God’s verdict of pardon, and joyfully come to His table as sons and daughters. Week by week, God spreads before us the riches of His grace—don’t miss the acres of diamonds He has already given.
