Weddings
We are so excited to serve you during the process of marriage and wedding planning. We offer many resources to help you plan and execute your rehearsal and wedding. Though the culture has evolving definitions of marriage, we believe that it is God alone who has the ultimate authority to prescribe and describe the marital relationship (Gen. 2:24; Matt. 19:1-9; Mark 10:1-12). Because of this understanding, we will only recognize marriages that meet the biblical definition: a covenant relationship between one gender¬-normative man and one gender¬-normative woman. The pastors, ministers and staff of the Tabernacle will only participate in weddings and officiate marriages that meet this definition, and the facilities and property of the Tabernacle of Emmanuel Full Gospel Assemblies will only host marriage ceremonies that meet this definition.
Baby Dedication
Baby dedication is a voluntary act in which Christian parents or guardians commit their child and themselves to the Lord. It is an outward expression of commitment to teach the child God’s ways and raise them according to God’s Word, trusting God to use the child for His purposes.
In Deuteronomy 6:5–7 the Lord commands, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. And these words which I command you today shall be in your heart. You shall teach them diligently to your children, and shall talk of them when you sit in your house, when you walk by the way, when you lie down, and when you rise up.”Ephesians 6:4 encourages parents to raise children “in the training and admonition of the Lord.”
Baby dedication is not an infant baptism nor does it take the place of baptism. It is our hope that the child may grow and personally decide one day to accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior and choose to take the next step of faith and be water baptized.
