Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Fragmentary Illustrations of the History of the Book of Common Prayer: From Manuscript Sources
IF we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and there is no truth in us. But if we confess our sins, god is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Wherefore I beseech you, dearly beloved Brethren, let us not dissemble nor cloak our sins before the face of Almighty god, our Heavenly Father, but confess them with lowly, penitent, and obedient hearts; That, having obtained forgiveness of the same by His infinite goodness and mercy, our services at this present may please Him, and that at the last we may come to His eternal joy, through jesus christ our Lord. Amen.
Dearly beloved Brethren, we are here assembled and met together in the fear of god; to praise His Holy Name, to hear His Holy Word, and to call upon Him for all things necessary both for our souls and bodies.
