Marcus and Corey What You Known 'Bout That trivia game for Wednesday April 9, 2025.

Series: Signs & GloryTitle: “Should Jesus Matter More Than Me?”Scripture: John 3:22-36Bottom line: It's not about me. If I follow Jesus, He must become greater--I must become less.INTRODUCTIONCONTEXTSERMON OUTLINECONCLUSIONNOTESOUTLINESQUESTIONS TO CONSIDER DISCUSSION QUESTIONSMAIN REFERENCES USEDMy opening prayer: Lord God, help us grow to be and do like Jesus, while abiding in him and leading others to do the same. INTRODUCTIONShould Jesus matter more than me?I mean we just read John 3:16 where we see that God loved the world--us--so much that he gave his one and only son (the most precious thing he could give) that whoever believes in him will not perish but have eternal life. That makes it seem like God is making much of me! That I matter to him!And we do! "But God demonstrates his love in this, that while we were still sinners Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)But it's because of that great love for us that he demonstrates his greatness even more. This is why he's worthy to live our lives for. This is why he matters most.In our world, our culture, it's all about #1. It's all about taking care of myself. What's best for me. What's in it for me. But this isn't at all how the Bible teaches us to live. In fact, it's 180 degrees the other way. It's not about me. It's all about Jesus--my creator and savior.2. The Olympic Torchbearer Who Knew His RoleIn the Olympic Games, the torch relay is a huge honor. Runners carry the flame for a short distance before passing it to the next person. No single runner tries to hold onto the torch forever—each one understands their job is to carry it for a time and then hand it off.John the Baptist saw his role the same way. He wasn't the light—he was just carrying the flame until Jesus, the true light, arrived. He gladly stepped aside because he knew it was never about him.Tie-in: Are we holding onto our own importance too tightly, or are we willing to pass the torch so Jesus can be seen more clearly?So, should Jesus matter more than me?Yes. Why? Good question. The apostle John answers this question 4 ways in John 3:22-36. Let's take a look.CONTEXTJesus & company move out from the city of Jerusalem to the Judean countryside to preach and baptize. Seeing the planned transition from J the B to J the C, this causes heartburn for John's disciples. Not unlike when a beloved pastor moves on from a church, the congregants are sometimes reluctant to follow the new pastor, even though it's often God's will.SERMON Bottom line: It's not about me. If I follow Jesus, He must become greater--I must become less.Main Idea: John the Baptist's response to his disciples shows us why Jesus must take first place in our lives—and why we must be willing to step back so He can be exalted.Jesus matters more because...The Church (Bride) belongs to Him. (22-29)He comes from above (heaven). (30-31)His words are God's words. (32-34)He holds my eternity. (35-36)Let's break this down a few verses at a time.1. Jesus Matters More Because the Church Belongs to Him (vv. 22–29)The Best Man Who Tried to Steal the Show Imagine a wedding where the best man keeps stepping in front of the groom, trying to take the spotlight. Instead of celebrating the couple, he gives a long speech about himself, tries to dance with the bride, and insists that everyone pay attention to him.That would be ridiculous, right? After all, that day is for the bride and groom. It's their day! And the best man should be pointing everyone else to them. That's actually his job!But that's exactly what happens when we try to make life about us instead of pointing to Jesus. John the Baptist understood this—his joy was in stepping aside so Jesus could take center stage.Tie-in: Are we content being the “best man” who points to Jesus, or are we still trying to be the main attraction?So, Jesus matters more because the Church (aka the Bride) belongs to Him.. • John calls himself the “friend of the bridegroom,” rejoicing that the bride (God's people) belongs to Jesus, not to him. • It's not about building our platform, reputation, or influence—it's about pointing people to Christ. • Application: Am I more focused on my own importance, or am I helping others love Jesus more?2. Jesus Matters More Because He Comes from Above (vv. 30–31) • John contrasts himself (earthly) with Jesus (from heaven). Jesus isn't just another teacher—He is God's Son. • This means He deserves absolute authority in our lives. • Application: Who has the final say in my decisions—Jesus or me?3. Jesus Matters More Because His Words Are God's Words (vv. 32–34) • Jesus speaks with firsthand knowledge of heaven, and God has given Him the Spirit without measure. • To reject Jesus' words is to reject God Himself. • Application: Do I listen to Jesus above all other voices—culture, opinion, even my own desires?4. Jesus Matters More Because He Holds My Eternity (vv. 35–36) • The Father has placed everything in Jesus' hands—life, judgment, salvation. • Belief in Jesus leads to eternal life, but rejecting Him brings God's wrath. • Application: Am I fully trusting in Jesus, or am I still holding on to control?CONCLUSIONJohn the Baptist knew his role—he wasn't the main event, just the one pointing to Jesus. His joy was complete when Jesus was exalted. So, should Jesus matter more than me? According to John, there's no question—He must.Application questions for us today: • Am I more focused on my own importance, or am I helping others love Jesus more? • Who has the final say in my decisions—Jesus or me? • Do I listen to Jesus above all other voices—culture, opinion, even my own desires? • Am I fully trusting in Jesus, or am I still holding on to control?Bottom line: It's not about me. If I follow Jesus, He must become greater--I must become less.What about you?Peter puts it all in perspective in his first sermon:““Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.” When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, “Brothers, what shall we do?” Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭2‬:‭36‬-‭39‬ ‭NIV‬‬InvitationHow do we respond? Answer 2 questions:Take out a card or piece of paper right now. Write down the answer to these questions: What is God saying to me right now?What am I going to do about it? Write this down on a sheet of paper. What I hear you saying, Lord, is ___________________.[my name] is going to believe/do __________________________________________________ as a result.Finally, share this with your Home or Mission group this week when you gather as a testimony about what God is doing in your life. You don't have to get too specific to give him praise.Lord's Supper, 1 Cor 11:23-26 is good passage.Also, say something like, "Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again." (past, present, and future)PrayNOTESChatGPT describes a Jewish wedding in Jesus' day in this way:"A traditional Jewish wedding in Jesus' day followed a structured process with deep cultural and theological significance. Understanding this context helps illuminate John the Baptist's statement in John 3:29:“The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore, this joy of mine is now complete.” (ESV)Stages of a Jewish Wedding in Jesus' Day1. Betrothal (Kiddushin) – The Legal Commitment • The marriage process began with betrothal, a legally binding agreement arranged by the families. • The groom would present a bride price (mohar) to the bride's father as a symbol of his commitment. • A written contract (ketubah) outlined the husband's responsibilities to his wife. • The couple was considered legally married at this point, though they did not yet live together or consummate the marriage. • The groom would then leave to prepare a home for his bride, often an addition to his father's house.2. Waiting Period – The Groom's Preparation • The groom would spend months, sometimes a year, preparing a home for his bride. • The bride remained at her family's house, preparing herself and staying pure for the wedding. • The exact time of the groom's return was often unknown, adding a sense of expectation.3. The Wedding Procession – The Groom Comes for His Bride • When the groom's father declared that everything was ready, the groom would gather his friends and go to the bride's house, often at night. • The bride and her attendants would hear the groom's approach, and she had to be ready to go with him immediately. • This imagery is reflected in Jesus' parable of the ten virgins (Matthew 25:1–13).4. The Wedding Ceremony and Feast • The bride and groom were escorted to the wedding feast, which could last up to seven days. • The marriage was consummated, symbolizing their full union. • The feast was a time of great joy, with music, dancing, and celebration.How This Relates to John 3:29John the Baptist identifies himself as the friend of the bridegroom (what we might call the “best man” today). In Jewish custom, this role was filled by someone who helped prepare the wedding and ensured everything was in order. His greatest joy was seeing the groom receive his bride. • Jesus is the Bridegroom – He has come to claim His people (the bride). • John is the Friend of the Bridegroom – His role was to prepare the way for Jesus, not to take center stage. • The Bride Represents God's People – In a broader biblical theme, the Church is the bride of Christ (Ephesians 5:25–32, Revelation 19:7–9).John's joy is complete because the groom (Jesus) has arrived and is beginning to gather His bride. His ministry was never about himself but about preparing the way for Jesus.A traditional Jewish wedding in Jesus' day followed a structured process with deep cultural and theological significance. Understanding this context helps illuminate John the Baptist's statement in John 3:29:“The one who has the bride is the bridegroom. The friend of the bridegroom, who stands and hears him, rejoices greatly at the bridegroom's voice. Therefore, this joy of mine is now complete.” (ESV)This is helpful in thinking through John 3:29 as well as the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25:1-13.OUTLINESWillmington's OUTLINE Bible (JOHN 3):Jesus meets with Nicodemus and tells him in order to be saved, all people must be born again. John the Baptist tells his disciples that Jesus is the Messiah.JOHN EXALTS THE PERSON OF SALVATION (3:22-36)A. The argument (3:22-26): A debate occurs among John's disciples concerning which baptism is valid-those performed by John or Jesus.B. The affirmation (3:27-36): John once again gives testimony concerning the greatness of Jesus.1. Jesus is the bridegroom, while John is but a friend of the bridegroom (3:27-29).2. Jesus must become greater and greater, while John must become less and less (3:30-36).QUESTIONS TO CONSIDERWhat do I want them to know?

Using the text of Genesis chapter 24, Talmud Bavli Ketubot 82b, and the Conservative Movement responsum by Rabbi Pamela Barmash, I try to correct the pervasive misunderstings around the Jewish wedding ceremonies:  Does arranged marriage (historically and today) exclude female consent? Is the Jewish wedding ceremony one of male acquisition of a female? Is the ketubah a wedding document or a prenuptial agreement that protects the bride and her property?

Should second weddings be modest? Or is it kosher to go full bridezilla?A listener asks for advice on how to deal with her sister's seemingly over-the-top requests for her second Jewish wedding.2nd weddings in the Torah:Abraham and Ketura Boaz and RuthRabbi Akiva Rav Support Chutzpod!Submit a questionContact Chutzpod!Follow Shira on InstagramFollow Hanna on InstagramFollow Shira on TwitterFollow Hanna on Twitter

Notes:  John 14:1-6 1   Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.  2   In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.  3   And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.  4   And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.  5   Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?  6   Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.  Daniel 9:24-27 24   Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.  25   Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.  26   And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.  27   And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.  Revelation 19:7-10 7   Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.  8   And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.  9   And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.  10   And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.  Revelation 19:17-18 17   And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God;  18   That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and bond, both small and great.  Revelation 19:11-15 11   And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.  12    His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.  13   And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.  14   And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.  15   And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.  Revelation 21:1-4 1   And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.  2   And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.  3   And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.  4   And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.  Revelation 22:3-5 3   And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:  4   And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.  5   And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.   

Notes:  John 14:1-4 1   Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.  2   In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.  3   And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.  4   And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.  Romans 8:34 Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.  Acts 1:11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.  Revelation 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.  Parable of Ten Virgins - Matthew 25 Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.  1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 16   For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:  17   Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.  2 Peter 3:10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.  Joel 2:16 Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, assemble the elders, gather the children, and those that suck the breasts: let the bridegroom go forth of his chamber, and the bride out of her closet.

Pastor Ben explains Matthew 25 1:13 by showing us how a Jewish Wedding works. The wise bridesmaids had oil in their lamps when the Bridegroom came for His Bride. They were ready as we should be for our Lord's eminent return! Do you know what it means to "follow" Jesus? Due to social media, in today's society, the word "follow" means to simply press a button and "become a fan" of someone. But to "Follow Jesus" means something totally different. "Following Jesus" means to read and study the Word of God, and apply what we learn from the Word of God to our every day lives; to love people in the same manner that Jesus loves people.

Jewish weddings include some really interesting traditions. In this episode of A Jew and A Gentile Discuss, Carly and Ezra talk about their meanings, similarities and differences from what most of our audience may be familiar with. Among the things they discuss are: Wedding attire, including why most grooms wear kippahs Fasting before getting married The Jewish tradition of bedeken, the veiling of the bride by her groom The significance of the The part in the ceremony when the bride circles the groom several times and what that means The special marriage contract of a Jewish wedding The concluding tradition of Jewish weddings, resulting in the shout of “Mazel Tov!” Gifts in increments of $18? What’s that all about? So, this is all cool, but how does it apply to Christian listeners? Along the Way As they talk about the fascinating meanings of Jewish wedding traditions, they bring out some other intriguing things, like: The Owen Wilson image Ezra can’t get out of his mind when he thinks of Jewish weddings Why a Jewish groom meets the bride halfway down the aisle What Jericho has to do with Jewish weddings The funny thing Ezra’s Israeli wife put in their Hebrew-written marriage contract The difference between the Jewish marriage covenant and typical wedding vows What some Jewish grooms forget in the wedding ceremony that leaves brides saying, “Um, hello?” How Jewish letters and words have numeric values associated with them A great reminder about one of the primary purposes of this podcast, for both Jewish and Christian listeners How Jewish wedding traditions are so filled with meaning that Christians can relate to What the traditional stomping of the glass by the groom has to do with the Temple A false choice many people think they have to make – if they’re Jewish, from a Jewish background or are in a mixed relationship A challenge to dig into the Scriptures and see if Jesus could be the unifying factor you never realized Words You Might Learn in This Episode Ashkenazi Jewish, kippah, yarmulke, chuppah, bedeken, tallit, Ani ledodi vedodi li, ketubah, mazel tov, chai, lechaim Scriptures Referenced in This Episode Matthew 19:5, Song of Solomon 2:16, Luke 22:20, Ezekiel 40–43, Revelation 11:1–2 and 9, Matthew 15:24, Isaiah 53:5–12, Psalm 16:10, John 4:42, 1 John 4:14, Ephesians 2:14 Previous Episodes Mentioned S2 E1 – Jewish in America: What the Pew Survey Missed S1 E40 – Staying Jewish: Love and Marriage A1 E49 – Mixed Marriages: Love and Marriage Other Important Stuff May 2-8 is the 2022 Bless Israel 5K.

Sermon By Rick Flemmer

Several years ago, I met Tov Rose at the Messiah Conference and had a brief interview with him.   Well, the years flew by, and we had another opportunity to chat recently.   This was a very enjoyable interview with lots of banter and laughter.   I know you'll love it - and the music too of course!Tov and his parents came to faith in 1973 through the witness of several Christian families, making Tov a second-generation Jewish believer in Jesus.  He is the author of several books including, The Book of GOD: For Men, The New Messianic Version Bible, The Baptism of Jesus from a Jewish Perspective, Jesus in the Jewish Wedding, and more.Tov has served as a Pastor, Speaker, Entrepreneur & Leadership Consultant, Television Producer, professional singer, Christian Radio Host, Bible teacher, Corporate Chaplain, and, Mission. He and Michelle are currently on staff with the International House of Prayer in Kansas City, where their older teen kids are blossoming!Tov holds a BA in Public & Media Relations; a Masters in Marketing Management, is working on a Masters in Biblical Research with the Institute of New Testament Midrashic Studies, and plans on completing his PhD in New Testament Midrashic Studies.

His hobbies include SciFi, singing, archaeology, anthropology, and physics.Tov is currently involved with helping tribal peoples fulfil their Romans 11:11 end times calling, and gathering resources and building partnerships to bring a “Targum-Inspired” Old Testament to 100 Tribal peoples over the next the next 3-5 years.Enjoy!!! 

Psalms 119:135 Make thy face to shine upon thy servant; and teach me thy statutes. Here in the seventh verse of the PEH section - the delight in the fear of the Lord verse, this is the seventh and final time in the Psalm the Psalmist asks to be taught the statutes or Huquam. Not unlike going around the walls of Jericho seven times,as a bride does in a Jewish Wedding. So this begs the question - WHAT IS A STATUTE?. The Hebrew for that word is just two letters, two pictures; first - Chet , meaning wedding or union and the second Qaf, meaning holy or close... My Translation would be: God teach me how to love you the way you want to be loved... I share some stories along these lines as well... "If you love me you will keep my commandments."

Marriage is one of the most important values in Judaism, and as such the marriage process is filled with meaningful rituals and processes, reflecting the magnitude of the moment. Often many people aren't aware of the meaning behind much of what's being done, so in this episode, we go through the entire wedding process from the time one enters the wedding hall until they leave. In addition to explaining the legal process, we add in the psychological and spiritual meanings behind many of these actions as well. This episode is dedicated in honor of the upcoming marriage of Scott Friedman and Michelle Golan. May the Torah learning that results from this podcast be a merit for them to build a beautiful Jewish home! Happy Listening!
