Corporate Confession of Sin

Lord God,

We confess to you that we all sinned in Adam. We have inherited the guilt and corruption of his sin, and death has spread to us justly, and we continue to transgress your holy Law. We often blame others for our sin; we even blame you for putting us in bad circumstances. We struggle to uphold your authority structures. We often let Satan have dominion over us.

Have mercy on us, Father, according to your steadfast love! Lord Jesus, we thank you for your finished work, which covers all our sin. Holy Spirit, we thank you for sealing us for eternity. We humbly ask, O Lord, that you increase our virtues so that we might be effective and fruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
