03/02/2014  The Good Battle: 1 Timothy 1:18-20

Christian faith requires that we engage in spiritual battle all the time. It is a good battle; a necessary battle; a worthy battle. Whether we like it or not, the war is on for our minds and hearts and lives. We have an enemy. He wants to derail us from a life of faith that pleases God and satisfies our soul. Those who ignore the battle and choose not to fight lose from the very beginning. They become casualties and end up living unfruitful lives. What about you?

REVERB: Saturday, March 15, 7pm: A night of worship and prayer; reverb is a venue that provides you a fresh opportunity to be still and seek  God's voice in your life. Why not come? Why wait? Grace is waiting to meet you.

Jesus said ‘I have not come to abolish the law and the prophets but to fulfill them.’ Have you ever wondered just how Christ fulfills the Old Testament? As part of our Holy Week services, Saturday, April 12^th, 5:30pm - 7:30pm, we will celebrate a Passover Encounter with Rabbi Nathan of Ruach Israel, a messianic congregation in Needham. He will come to Emmanuel to walk us through a meal and communion making the connection of the Passover Meal with fulfillment in Christ. This will be a family gathering for all.
