O God, the strength of all who hope in you, mercifully accept our prayers, and, because through the weakness of our mortal nature we can do nothing without you, grant us the help of your grace, that in following your commands we may please you in desire and in deed; through Jesus Christ, our Saviour who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
Gracious and merciful God, in a wonderful sacrament you have given us a memorial of the passion of your Son Jesus Christ; grant that we who receive these sacred mysteries may grow up into him in all things until we come to your eternal joy; through our Saviour Jesus Christ who is alive with with you and the Holy Spirit, one God now and for ever. Amen
Almighty and everlasting God, you have given to us your servants grace, by the confession of a true faith, to acknowledge the glory of the eternal Trinity, and in the power of your divine Majesty to worship the Unity, may we, through the steadfastness of this faith, evermore be defended from all adversities; through Jesus Christ who is alive with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen.
The majority of Christians appear dishonest with themselves (and others) about the immorality of the biblical God, skipping over problematic texts claimed to be equally inspired.
