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: Colossians 2:20-23
posted on Sunday, April 19th by Joe

  1. When we talk about the Christian’s walk, what are we referring to?
  2. How was Israel’s walk in the wilderness (after their redemption from Egypt and before entering Canaan) a picture of our walk in Christ? What can we learn from them?
  3. Colossians 2:6-4:6 is about the Christian’s walk. In Colossians 3:1-4:6, Paul teaches us how to walk. In Colossians 2:8, 16-23, Paul tells us how not to walk. How is the Christian not to walk?
  4. What’s the problem with these manmade rules and regulations? I can think of two major problems. The first is hinted at in Colossians 2:8, 17, 19. The second is stated in Colossians 2:23. 
  5. Why must the Christian walk be rooted in Christ?
  6. Practically speaking, how does a Christian remain rooted in Christ?
  7. Practically speaking, what does a walk that is pleasing to the Lord look like?

Discussion Questions: Baptist Catechism 19
posted on Sunday, April 19th by Joe

  1. Read Baptist Catechism question 19 again and attempt to rephrase it. In other words, what is this question all about? What is it asking?
  2. What is a covenant? Why is it important to understand the various covenants that God has entered into with man? Can you name them?
  3. The covenant that God made with Adam in the beginning goes by different names. What are they? And what do the various names tell us about this covenant?  
  4. What were the terms of the covenant that God made with Adam? What were the promised blessings for obedience? What were the threatened curses for disobedience?
  5. The Covenant of Life or Works was made with Adam, but all humanity was affected by Adam’s fall into sin. How can this be?
  6. This principle of representation (or federal headship) is present in the Covenant of Grace as well. How so? Discuss. 
  7. Romans 5:12-19 and 1 Corinthians 15:21-22 are listed as proof texts in our catechism. Please read those texts and discuss their meaning.
