Numbers 12; Numbers 16; Philippians 2:5–11Episode 12 - November 2Big Idea:God’s kingdom flips our world upside down — the proud fall, the humble rise, and grace secures what pride shakes. 1. The Subtle Revolt — “Why Not Me?” (Numbers 12) • Miriam and Aaron envy Moses. • Pride hides behind fairness and comparison. • God reminds them: “I choose whom I choose.” • Moses’ greatness was humility — he thought of himself less. (C.S. Lewis) 2. The Earthquake of Self-Glory (Numbers 16) • Korah demands equality but craves control. • The ground opens — pride collapses. • Moses and Aaron intercede; Aaron stands “between the dead and the living.” • A picture of Jesus — our Mediator who stops sin’s plague. 3. The Trembling Ends at the Cross • At Calvary, the earth shakes again — not in judgment, but redemption. • Grace reverses gravity: the way up is down. • Jesus stoops low and is exalted high. (Phil. 2:5–11) Takeaway:Martin Luther said sin curves the soul inward.The Gospel turns us outward — toward God and others.The cross holds. The cross anchors. The cross saves.
