  **************************

 

 

Let us cast away the sin of deception ---- so that we will mislead no

 one in word or in deed, nor pretend to be what we are not.

 

 

Let us cast away the sin of vain ambition --- which prompts us to

 strive for goals which bring neither true fulfillment nor genuine contentment.

 

Let us cast away the sin of stubbornness --- so that we will neither

 persist in foolish habits nor fail to acknowledge our will to change.

 

 

Let us cast away the sin of envy --- so that we will neither be consumed

 by desire for what we lack nor grow unmindful of the blessings which are

 already ours.

 

Let us cast away the sin of selfishness --- which keeps us from

enriching our lives through wider concerns and greater sharing, and from

 reaching out in love to other human beings.

 

Let us cast away the sin of indifference --- so that we may be sensitive

to the sufferings of others and responsive to the needs of people

 everywhere.

 

Let us cast away the sin of pride and arrogance --- so that we can

worship God and serve His purpose in humility and truth.

PLAN OF SALVATION

For all have sinned and come short of the glory of God.  Romans 3:23

 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned. Romans 5:12

For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Romans 6:23

That if thou shall 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.  Romans 10:9

For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.  Romans 10:10

For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:13
