Sermons at St. Andrew’s
December 21, 2025 | The Rev. Andrew Van Kirk
Emmanuel: God-With-Us and
Us-With-God
God is not Alenuel (God-Against-Us), Tachteynuel (God-Under-Us), or "Menuel" (God-Away-From-Us), but Emmanuel (God-With-Us), with us in Christ through every aspect of existence from birth to death. Because He is fully "God-With-Us," He secures our eternal hope and identity as "Us-With-God."
