    John 18:33-37 Then Pilate entered the Praetorium again, called Jesus,
    and said to Him, "Are You the King of the Jews?" Jesus answered him,
    "Are you speaking for yourself about this, or did others tell you this
    concerning Me?" Pilate answered, "Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the
    chief priests have delivered You to me. What have You done?" Jesus
    answered, "My kingdom is not of this world. If My kingdom were of this
    world, My servants would fight, so that I should not be delivered to
    the Jews; but now My kingdom is not from here." Pilate therefore said
    to Him, "Are You a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say rightly that I
    am a king. For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come
    into the world, that I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who
    is of the truth hears My voice."

    Order of Service:
    * This morning, Professor Dennis Marzolf will lead us in a hymn
    study.
    * Jesus Calls Us C.F. Alexander (1852) 87.87. STUTTGART (ELH 87)
    1 Jesus calls us; o'er the tumult
Of our life's wild, restless
    sea,

    Day by day His sweet voice soundeth, Saying, "Christian, follow Me."
    2 As of old Saint Andrew heard it
By the Galilean lake,

    Turned from home and toil and kindred, Leaving all for His dear sake.
    3 Jesus calls us from the worship Of the vain world's golden store,
    From each idol that would keep us, Saying, "Christian, love Me more."
    4 In our joys and in our sorrows, Days of toil and hours of ease,

    Still He calls, in cares and pleasures, "Christian, love Me more than
    these."
    5 Jesus calls us; By Thy mercies, Savior, make us hear Thy call;

    Give our hearts to Thine obedience, Serve and love Thee best of all.
    * The Collect for St. Andrew's Day:
    Almighty God,
who gave such grace to your apostle Andrew
that he
    readily obeyed the call of your Son Jesus Christ, and brought his
    brother with him: Give us,
who are called by your holy Word,
grace
    to follow Him without delay,
and to bring those near to us into His
    gracious presence; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
    one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
    * Advent Tells Us Christ Is Near
    1 Advent tells us Christ is near; Christmas tells us Christ is here.
    In Epiphany we trace
All the glory of His grace.
    2 Then three Sundays will prepare For the time of faithful prayer,
    That, with hearts made penitent, We may keep a faithful Lent.
    3 Holy Week and Easter then Tell who died and rose again:
    O that happy Paschal day! "Christ is ris'n indeed," we say.
    4 Yes, and Christ ascended, too, To prepare a place for you;

    So we give Him special praise after those great forty days.
    5 Then He sent the Holy Ghost On the day of Pentecost,

    With us ever to abide:
God, our Comfort, by our side.
    6 Last of all, by grace we sing Glory to our God and King,
    Glory to the One in Three, Glory to the Trinity.
    Katherine Hankey, 1834-1911, alt. / 77. 77 ORIENTIS PARTIBUS (ELH 388)

    Revelation 21:1-5 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the
    first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no
    longer any sea. I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down
    out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for
    her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the
    dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be
    his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He
    will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or
    mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed
    away." He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything
    new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy
    and true."

    Revelation 22:1-5 Then the angel showed me the river of the water of
    life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the
    Lamb down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of
    the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit,
    yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the
    healing of the nations. No longer will there be any curse. The throne
    of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will
    serve him. They will see his face, and his name will be on their
    foreheads. There will be no more night. They will not need the light
    of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them
    light. And they will reign forever and ever.

    took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in
    their vessels with their lamps. But while the bridegroom was delayed,
    they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight a cry was heard:
    'Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!' Then all those
    virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the
    wise, "Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.' But the
    wise answered, saying, "No, lest there should not be enough for us and
    you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.' And
    while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready
    went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. Afterward the
    other virgins came also, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us!' But he
    answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.'
    "Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which
    the Son of Man is coming."

    Christ, who will judge the living and the dead at His appearing and
    His kingdom: Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season.
    Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching. For the
    time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine, but according
    to their own desires, because they have itching ears, they will heap
    up for themselves teach-ers; and they will turn their ears away from
    the truth, and be turned aside to fables. But you be watchful in all
    things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your
    ministry.
