EP 11: Marty Goetz: The Feast of Dedication

[@maureenw7039]

Love that Marty‼️ I just taught Hanukkah to a small group Bible study and they were blown away‼️ They're buying Hanukkiahs❣️👍🏼 And as far as I know my husband and I are not Jewish but we're all about Yeshuah and what HE celebrates‼️

[@elkanaharthur7713]

When I was thinking about the "rededication of the temple," I thought about how our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). It's a great time of year for us to think about rededicating our lives to God. 🕎🕊️🙌

[@Trinitylover]

The last verse is my favorite, as well! Can’t say it without tears.

Believe it, Believe it. I love hearing you young men talking about your experience. I'm 72, a Christian enjoying your fellowship. Hi from Texas Ephesians, One new man

[@jillwaller5178]

Thank you for this inspirational and informative podcast. I read that part and felt it was very relevant to today. Our prayers are with Israel and His chosen people. Shalom. Jill. Australia 🙏📖🇦🇺🇮🇱

So excited about Yeshua making us one. It’s a blessing to be apart of His family!

[@maureenw7039]

We're adopted as sons and daughters! God declared several times in Exodus and Leviticus that these are His Feasts! Therefore as sons and daughters of Abraham we would all celebrate God's Feasts‼️ As non- Jews (1 tribe) our family has celebrated all God's Feasts for over 20 years and they get richer every day‼️❣️

[@megb6820]

As a grafted believer, I am really enjoying learning about the festivals that Jesus celebrated

[@dianacroy4579]

Thank you. I believe that we are all part of God's family. He is my savior. I read the shabbat reading, I recieve from Joshua. Thank you. I have more understanding now. Thank you all. 😊

Incredibly, I started to watch this podcast episode this morning before attending Shabbat service at City of David messianic synagogue in Toronto today for Hanukkah. And they sang Marty’s song to close the service! It was beautiful.

[@Lisa-qv7hl]

Thank you, Brothers. I have learned so much from this podcast. One thing I believe already is, as a graphed in child of God into the nation of Israel (not a Messianic Christian), we are already brothers and sisters. May God continue to bless all three of you and your families.

[@rshayleewatkins1545]

Love this podcast! The concept of giving our little supply of spiritual oil every day to the Lord Yeshua to bless us to shine for him each day, is wonderful!❤🤗🕎✡️❤

[@patriciacovert7517]

So wonderful

[@susanmcintosh4124]

I keep a candle-holder Nativity trio that up all year (His Light and Miracle is celebrated all year here) AND, when younger, my mom limited my Christmas carol singing to between Thanksgiving and New Years! (p.s. I can and do sing them all year now!!!) Thank you for discussing Marty's song; just last night, 'I' remembered that I NEED to rededicate myself after the junk I've been going through and this song says it all and soars!!! (I'm going to memorize it, now, to sing all year!) This was a God led time with you guys today. Thank you for sending this to me and great seeing you again, Joshua!!!💙🕎

[@leemann7621]

How I love you guys I love and look forward to your shows They teach me always I love your friendship and your love of GOD and YESHUA Thankyou

Aaron, early in your music upcoming, I heard in your songs, you were conncected to the land. I knew your path to the intimacy with the Messiah Yeshua. So thankful for another gathered to the kingdom.

This was a great zoom call. Loved what you shared, Marty!❤❤❤❤

[@elizabethbishop1882]

I believe the start of Hanukkah on Christmas is a sign of the unity of Jew and Christian Believers.

[@Trinitylover]

It also happened in 2016…gee, what’s the significance I wonder? 😉

[@Christa88699]

Maybe the 'time' is even riper now?

[@Christa88699]

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that we are in a similar situation? After all, there are (officially registered) about 360 million persecuted 'Christians' worldwide. Might the reason for this be the same? Epheser 6:12-18 HFA So I think it is good and right for us to worship together and courage and comfort each other and prepare the way for our common LORD and GOD as ONE as it is His will, who, according to prophecy, will come again at the end of the hardest times in Israel for all people to see

I really enjoyed listening to this interview!

[@birdieElla777]

First to the Jews, then to the Gentiles. First to Israel, then to the Nations. All Gentiles are "grafted-in" to Israel spiritually. Adopted into G-d's family. ✝️ 🕎🕯🕯 Yeshua/Jesus was a Torah observent Jew, therefore, as a grafted in believer in the God of Israel, we get to celebrate what He did. 💕✝️ 🇺🇲 💕🇮🇱

I have been to the Toronto Revival 3 times a year when they had it.

[@noir.144]

I heard about the Revival. At that time, my Church was Pentecostal but didn't go too far to the Charismatic side so they said some negative things. It wasn't until a just a few years ago that God showed me that what I believed wasn't true. Hanukkah 🍁 Sameach

Angela Hunt has a great “historical fiction” that taught me a lot about the Macabee’s-Judah’s Wife

[@ajthomas2937]

Very inspiring. One comment about something said towards the end. If you were raised in the Roman Catholic Church, and then are born again, Spirit filled, and then learn the TRUTH of being grafted in, you come to KNOW and UNDERSTAND, that the Christian god propagated for almost 1800 years by the Catholic Church, presented a god who turned against His own laws. The Catholic Church changed God's laws and commandments and to me this is very serious. And the Protestant Reformation did nothing to replace God's laws. Therefore, NO, the god of christianity is a mixed god, who turns against His own laws and commandments, and therefore can not be the same God of the TORAH.

Aaron Shust back in 2001 as baby New Test. believers @Christ Comm. Chapel & Marty Goetz @a church concert 2019 as Messianic believers. Thank you all 3 for blessing us with your gifts of music ! 🎶🎵 God has revealed to us about Shabbat & His 7 Holy Appointed Festival times to celebrate with Him.

“All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten” by Robert Fulghum

[@lucialindeboom1382]

I have the same question like Aaron Shust, “can we be in the same family?” God consider us as family but not all Jews Consider us as families. I know it when I asked for prayers for Persecuted Christians under attacks from Muslim, they would not have much response at all. So now crazy people who are against Israel and helping Muslim would go as far as Jesus is Muslim now. They would force Christians to live like Muslim instead of anything close to the Jews.

[@nicoleknauer6374]

I've decided to give up Christmas, many Gentiles would say it's a Christian tradition. However, for me personally, there are too many pagan ties, plus the Roman Catholic church had a major hand in creating Christmas and I rarely agree with anything Catholic. I enjoy marking hanukkah, but not as a replacement for Christmas, I fully recognize that it's a Jewish custom. I do it to show my support for Israel and the Jewish people, and celebrate a holiday that Yeshua most likely celebrated!! I also observe the 7 major biblical feasts/festivals which has brought so much joy to my life!!

[@noir.144]

When I found about Christmas, I was against it. I found about the feasts and began to believe that Jesus was born during Sukkot. This month I got the idea to count 9 months back and landed on December. A few years back when I was against Christmas, Jesus wished me a Merry Christmas. I was offended but I understood what He was trying to say. He was trying to tell me to stop being so religious. So now Christmas is when the Father of Lights gave Light to the world but also the time when the enemy tried to snuff out the light.

[@lucialindeboom1382]

What you are saying is because the God’s son’s birthday is maligned by some people that you decided to never even to celebrate his birthday. Imagine an orphan boy or girl who comes to this world and those adopted him said to him or her because we do not know your real birthday, we will never celebrate your birthday. Jesus Christ comes to be the Saviour of this world is to be the One for these orphans of the world to let them know they matters, their lives matters, celebrate Hanukkah 🕎 all you want. Celebrating Christmas for many in this world to your ignorance does not even involved chopping down a tree only to decorate it. They just want to be with their families for a warm meal and sing chorals to the Lord and honour Him as our Messiah and Saviour.

[@noir.144]

@@lucialindeboom1382 It's not just about the trees. Rome doesn't even hide the fact that it mixed sun god worship with Christianity. They converted pagan sun dial temples (now dedicated to Mary and Peter) to indicate when you should celebrate the Christian celebrations. The Basilica also indicates day to celebrate and honor Jupiter too (Sept 4). It highlights the arch doorway to show divinity in the same way the halo is depicted over Jesus' head in many Catholic images. Hanukkah is a direct confrontation to sun god worship and the solar calendar. I also believe it's the time Herod killed many babies hoping to kill Jesus who was little more than 1 year old when caravans of the wiseman finally arrived from the east. If Christmas and Hannukkah means that you are celebrating Him with your family, I think God will look at your heart. You should just know there are reasons why someone will choose not to celebrate they way you do or on the days that you do.

The legend of the oil is not in the books of Macabees, it came more than a century later according to many scholars and Jewish rabbis.

[@Rebekah_Rivkah]

I’m saddened to hear you all watch The Chosen. I used to watch it and be a fan of it until I felt God tell me that it’s was evil. I hope and pray you all find the truth that I did.

[@yvetteandjorgenlarsen9753]

I don't know if it's evil, but I certainly have no reason to watch it! Stopped watching movies ~30 years ago. I make an exception for "It Happened One Night," the story of Esther at Purim. And after much nudging, I did see "Heaven Is For Real." And then I read the book. I much rather enjoy reading The Passion Translation of the Bible. And I Listen to Jonathan Cahn several times a week on his KZbin broadcasts. Love the Word!

Christmas is Pagan....

[@lucialindeboom1382]

Christmas is you decided to celebrate the birthday of our Lord. God is omnipresent, who can truly fix a day for his first existence? Jesus Christ comes to this human world that Him created and be among us like fellow human, and you all just want to deprive him of one day of celebration as the human he came to be? There are so many of us do not care anymore or at all about mistletoe or gifts. But we just want to sing carols to the Lord and telling Him Happy Birthday! Jews have Mitzvah, or even Bar Mitzvah, why? If you so against brithday celebrations of our God coming to be human beings.
