EMMANUEL EXISTS AS A REACHING MINISTRY:
REACHING UP TO GOD IN WORSHIP, REACHING IN TO ONE ANOTHER FOR EDIFICATION AND ENCOURAGEMENT, REACHING OUT TO THE WORLD WITH CHRIST’S LOVE
“And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. ”

TODAY’S MESSAGE:Welcome to Emmanuel; where we have to worship Our Creator and Savior in Spirit and in truth! George Washington said that nature shows God only blesses nations which honor His laws. We have a much greater authority for this in Romans 1. The Gospel shows our truly hopeless condition when we rebel against Our Creator and His good ways. We have to understand His judgment in order to comprehend the goodness of His grace that can be found in repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.
