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: Luke 23:6-25
posted on Sunday, November 2nd by Joe

  1. Why did Pilate condemn Jesus if he thought he was innocent?
  2. The Scriptures teach that we must be subject to the governing authorities because they are God’s ministers in the civil realm. Does this mean we should expect them to always act justly? Does this mean we must always obey them? Why then do the Scriptures command us to honor them (Romans 13:1-7; 1 Peter 2:13-18)?
  3. Why did Herod wish to see Jesus? How does this compare to the interest that some have in Jesus even today? 
  4. Herod dressed Jesus like a king to mock him. Discuss the irony. 
  5. Pilate condemned Jesus to die on the cross and released Barabbas. Discuss the irony. What does this teach us about how Christ accomplished our salvation?
  6. Jesus was innocent. Why does this matter? 
  7. How do you plan to apply this text to your life today?

posted on Sunday, November 2nd by Joe

  1. What does it mean for God’s kingdom to come? I can think of two ways of answering this. 
  2. What is a kingdom?
  3. How many kingdoms (spiritually speaking) are there in the world today?
  4. Where is Satan’s kingdom? Who’s the king? Who are the citizens?
  5. Where is God’s kingdom? Who’s the king? Who are the citizens?
  6. How does God’s kingdom advance? Conversely, how is Satan’s kingdom destroyed?
  7. What is meant by “the kingdom of glory?” When will it be here?
  8. Give examples of things we can pray for under the second petition.
