Ministry to Youth
Emmaus’ youth ministry does not take the place of our regular Sunday worship service. We believe that our young people are a valuable and significant part of the congregation, and therefore, should regularly attend our Sunday worship services where they will learn from the teaching of the scriptures, worship, and interact with the adults of Emmaus.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Discussion Questions: Baptist Catechism 10
posted on Sunday, March 24th by Joe
- What is a decree?
- Why is right to talk about God’s decree before we consider his work of creation and his works of providence?
- What did God decree?
- Why did God decree what he decreed? What “moved” him?
- What is the end goal or objective of God’s decree?
- Why is it wrong for us to seek our own glory and right for God to seek his own glory? Stated differently, why would it be wrong for God to not seek his own glory supremely?
- How is it our greatest good for God to glorify himself?
Discussion Questions: Baptist Catechism 8 & 9
posted on Sunday, March 17th by Joe
- If there is only one God, why do the Scriptures speak of “gods”? (i.e. Deut. 6:14)
- Why does our catechism stress that God is the “living” and “true” God? What do the words “living” and “true” communicate? What errors do they correct?
- Why is it important to stress that God is one before speaking about the plurality in the Godhead What error does this guard against?
- Who are the three persons of the Trinity? What do the three persons share in common as the one living and true God? What distinguished them from each other?
- Though it is true that the doctrine of the Trinity is a mystery (God is incomprehensible, remember?), our confession says that the “doctrine of the Trinity is the foundation of all our communion with God, and comfortable dependence on him (Second London Confession, 2.3). What is the meaning of this statement? How does the doctrine of the Trinity serve as the foundation of our communion with God and bring comfort to God’s people?
