Multi-Generational Church Ministry
At Emmaus we believe that God has given parents, especially fathers the authority and responsibility to train and instruct children up in the Lord. In addition, we believe that God has ordained the gathering of all generations, young to old, to worship Him together in one place and at one time. Therefore, each and every Sunday our children worship the Lord alongside their parents and other members of God’s family.

- What does it mean to be wise?
- Where must we go to find true wisdom? Where must we not go?
- Why are human traditions and external ceremonies an insufficient source of wisdom?
- Why is Christ the only source of true wisdom? Seven reasons are listed in Colossians 2:9-15. We will return to consider them in more detail next Sunday, Lord willing.

- What is a covenant?
- What do we call the covenant that God made with Adam in the beginning?
- What did God graciously offer to Adam (and his posterity) in the Covenant of Life?
- What were the terms of this covenant? What did Adam have to do, and not do, to get the reward?
- What were the threats or curses of this covenant if Adam failed?
- This doctrine is foundational. It would be very difficult to understand the story or Scripture, that is to say, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, without it. Discuss.

- How does remembering that all wisdom and knowledge are hidden in Christ protect us from being deceived by persuasive false teachers?
- Why did Paul commend the Colossians for their good order and the firmness of their faith in Christ?
- What is the “good order” that Paul refers to? Why is good order so important?
- Paul issues a command in verse 6—”so walk in him”. The command is followed by a few phrases that describe the manner of our walking. Discuss each phrase.

- What do we mean when we say that God preserves all things?
- What do we mean when we say that God governs all things?

- Paul struggled (labored) in prayer for the saints (see Colossians 1:9). Epaphras struggled (labored) in prayer for the saints (see Colossians 4:12). Do you struggle in prayer for the saints?

- As an Apostle, Paul received a stewardship from God. How does he describe his stewardship in this passage? What was Paul’s job?
- In what sense is making the word of God fully known and proclaiming Christ the same thing?
- Paul calls Christ and the gospel of Christ a mystery hidden for ages and generations. What does he mean by this? Was the gospel of Christ, and the fact that salvation would come to the Gentiles, completely unknown before Christ came?
- As Paul and his co-laborers proclaimed Christ, what was their goal?
- The Colossians were encountering false teaching that claimed spiritual maturity or perfection was to be found in something other than Christ. How does this passage counter that claim?
- How do you plan to apply this text to your life today?
