Call to Worship: God is a Consuming Fire (Hebrews 12)

Leader: We have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm; to a trumpet blast or to such a voice speaking words that those who heard it begged that no further word be spoken to them

Congregation #1: We have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem.  We have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. 

Congregation #2: We have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel.

Leader: See to it that we do not refuse him who speaks. 

All: Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire. Amen.
