Passage: Genesis 2:21-25
Last week we talked about natural revelation, the idea that the unseen is seen through the seen. But if that's the case, then not only is God's being visible through creation; his will is too. Natural law is a way of seeking God's intentions for us through the created order. This week we first look to see how natural law is attested to in the Scriptures, and then at what natural law has to say about our bodies.

CALL TO WORSHIP
Psalm 8
CONFESSION (Book of Common Prayer 2019)
Almighty and most merciful Father,
we have erred and strayed from your ways like lost sheep.
We have followed too much the devices and desires
of our own hearts.
We have offended against your holy laws.
We have left undone those things which we ought to have done,
and we have done those things which we ought not
to have done;
and apart from your grace, there is no health in us.
O Lord, have mercy upon us.
Spare all those who confess their faults.
Restore all those who are penitent, according to your promises
declared to all people in Christ Jesus our Lord.
And grant, O most merciful Father, for his sake,
that we may now live a godly, righteous, and sober life,
to the glory of your holy Name. Amen.
CONFESSION OF FAITH (Apostle’s Creed)
I believe in God, the Father almighty,
creator of heaven and earth.
I believe in Jesus Christ, his only Son, our Lord,
who was conceived by the Holy Spirit
born of the virgin Mary.
suffered under Pontius Pilate,
was crucified, died, and was buried;
He descended to the dead.
On the third day he rose again.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father
He is coming again to judge the living and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the holy catholic* church,
the communion of saints,
the forgiveness of sins,
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
Who You Say I Am
Hillsong Worship
Who am I that the highest King would wel - come me
I was lost but He brought me in oh His love for me
Oh His love for me
Who the Son sets free is free indeed
I'm a child of God Yes I am
Free at last He has ransomed me His grace runs deep
While I was a slave to sin Jesus died for me
Yes He died for me
Who the Son sets free is free indeed
I'm a child of God Yes I am
In my Father's house there's a place for me
I'm a child of God Yes I am
I am chosen not forsaken
I am who You say I am
You are for me not against me
I am who You say I am
Cornerstone
By Hillsong Worship
My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness
I dare not trust the sweetest frame
But wholly trust in Jesus' Name
Christ alone cornerstone
Weak made strong in the Savior's love
Through the storm He is Lord, Lord of all
He is Lord Lord of all
When darkness seems to hide His face
I rest on His unchanging grace
In every high and stormy gale
My anchor holds within the veil
My anchor holds within the veil
When He shall come with trumpet sound
Oh may I then in Him be found
Dressed in His righteousness alone
Faultless to stand before the throne
This Is Amazing Grace
By Phil Wickham
Who breaks the power of sin and darkness
Whose love is mighty and so much stronger
The King of Glory the King above all kings
Who shakes the whole earth with holy thunder
Who leaves us breathless in awe and wonder
The King of Glory the King above all kings
This is amazing grace
This is unfailing love
That You would take my place
That You would bear my cross
You laid down Your life
That I would be set free
Oh Jesus I sing for all that You've done for me
Who brings our chaos back into order
Who makes the orphan a son and daughter
The King of Glory the King of Glory
Who rules the nations with truth and justice
Shines like the sun in all of its brilliance
The King of Glory the King above all kings
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
Worthy is the King who conquered the grave

SERMON
King of Kings
Hillsong Worship
In the darkness we were waiting
Without hope without light
Till from heaven You came running
There was mercy in Your eyes
To fulfill the law and prophets
To a virgin came the Word
From a throne of endless glory
To a cradle in the dirt
Praise the Father Praise the Son
Praise the Spirit Three in One
God of glory, Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings
To reveal the kingdom coming
And to reconcile the lost
To redeem the whole creation
You did not despise the cross
For even in Your suffering
You saw to the other side
Knowing this was our salvation
Jesus for our sake You died
And the morning that You rose
All of heaven held its breath
Till that stone was moved for good
For the Lamb had conquered death
And the dead rose from their tombs
And the angels stood in awe
For the souls of all who’d come
To the Father are restored
And the Church of Christ was born
Then the Spirit lit the flame
Now this gospel truth of old
Shall not kneel shall not faint
By His blood and in His Name
In His freedom I am free
For the love of Jesus Christ
Who has resurrected me
Praise the Father Praise the Son
Praise the Spirit Three in One
God of glory, Majesty
Praise forever to the King of Kings
Praise forever to the King of Kings
Praise forever to the King of Kings
