[Jesus] saves His people from their sins. This is His special office. He saves them from the guilt of sin, by washing them in His own atoning blood. He saves them from the dominion of sin, by putting in their hearts the sanctifying Spirit. He saves them from the presence of sin, when He takes them out of this world to rest with Him. He will save them from all the consequences of sin, when He shall give them a glorious body at the last day. Blessed and holy are Christ's people! From sorrow, cross, and conflict they are not saved. But they are saved from sin for evermore.

CONFESSION 14

FEAR

The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? What time I am afraid, I will trust in the Lord. In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me. Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for God is with me; His rod and His staff they comfort me. I will not fear because God has created and formed me; He has redeemed me; He has called me by name; I am His. When I pass through the waters, He will be with me, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow me. when I walk through the fire, I will not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon me. God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. I will not fear for God is with me; I am not dismayed, for He is my God. He strengthens me; He helps me; He holds me up with the right hand of His righteousness. My Heavenly Father knows when a single bird falls to the ground. He even knows the exact number of the hairs of my head. I will not fear, therefore, because I am of great value to God. I will not be afraid; I will believe God. I will not fear because it is my Father’s will to give me the kingdom. Jesus has given me peace. I will not let my heart be troubled neither will I let it be afraid. Though I have tribulation, I will be of good cheer because Jesus has overcome the world in my behalf. I have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but I have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby I call God my Father. God has not given me the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
