Let alone a sequel! %(<br /><br />The best piece I've ever watched and would really call it "Christian" is the GOSPEL OF JOHN (2003) because the whole textbook is the pure bible text only. I watched it the first time shortly after being saved like the blind man in chapter 9 in 2005 on YouTube. I purchased the DVD later and found out from the bonus material that sadly probably none of the main actors nor the director Saville or the composer of this wonderful music was saved because I watched all their interviews carefully and what they told about their motivation to make this movie and personal beliefs. I was stunned how God let man create such a brilliant masterpiece of filmmaking but the makers themselves not truly saved at all. I heard of the main character H.I. Cusick he didnt get a follow up engagement for 2 years. I thought well, God gives an opportunity to turn to Him to every actor too. But obviously, Cusick didn't care. So sad. This showed me you can even quote scriptures word by word and learn them by heart and not come to know God... That's how dead you are in transgressions.<br /><br />Personally, I admit being currently more attracted by desaster movies such as "2012" or "Geostorm" (LOL!) because of their realistic world view in the imminent Day of the LORD...

Scripture states God ...Humans petting dinosaurs? <br /><br />Scripture states God has given man *dominion*. And, eventually, dominion over ***all things*** God has created.<br /><br />That requires a bit of intellectual capacity.<br /><br />It is beyond debate God creates all things via laws that can be depended upon. Spiritual laws and physical laws. <br /><br />Man using his God-given intellect can discover for himself what these laws are. The earth is at least 4.5 billion years old, dinosaurs lived tens of millions of years before humanity arrived on earth, and none of that conflicts with scripture in the least bit. Rather, it is quite the contrary - it supports scripture.<br /><br />Galileo had his problems in his day and today the same opposition still exists.

I feel as though this was included in the 10 Commandments for our own good. Aren't they all? False misrepresentations lead to lasting false images that are extremely hard to "unsee". The portraits always creep me out, and never make me feel as though they represent the Son. It's likely this likeness of him will probably closely resemble any false Christs that show up in the future, i.m.o. Not trying to be a Debbie-Downer over here, as I appreciate good wholesome entertainment. But I feel we have to be even more careful if it is a supposed representation of Biblical stories. Especially considering the overall lack of Bible-reading taking place these days. Most may never think to discern truth from lies. And t.v. productions tend to be more entertaining to most, compared with opening the Word. I've even caught myself questioning whether I got certain facts right simply because of the liberties taken in these productions. <br /><br />I do recommend October Baby, which I didn't see on the list. Great story of a child who "should have been aborted". And good-quality. I also just saw The Case for Christ. Lee Strobel's testimony is a good one. <br /><br />I'd be cautious with Angus Buchan(Faith Like Potatoes), as he is going the direction of the New Apostolic Reformation/charismatic. And A.D. was done by a husband and wife team who are not shy about their involvement in the New Age, Roma Downey specifically. Their newest venture sure reads like it will prep viewers to receive a "Messiah" in the middle east in the coming days.

It may have some good scenes, but I don't know because I couldn't finish it.<br /><br />What did it for me was a scene early in the movie where Jesus is in the boat with Peter, and says to him:<br /><br />"I've come to change the world."<br /><br />No He didn't, He came to *save* the world. He's not a super hero; He's the Son of God, as the title proclaims.<br /><br />I couldn't watch any more after that. =:(<br /><br />Maybe it's a little thing, and all due apologies to anyone who enjoyed this movie; but that one line just irked me to no end and it ruined the film for me.Greg L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04548413922600471875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-29300202556474623932017-10-23T21:12:46.269-05:002017-10-23T21:12:46.269-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Greg L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04548413922600471875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-30921968654470774862017-10-23T21:05:27.896-05:002017-10-23T21:05:27.896-05:00To anyone who would watch or promote the film &quo...To anyone who would watch or promote the film "The Passion of the Christ":<br /><br />You may want to read this critique first...<br /><br />http://www.lighthousetrailsresearch.com/blog/?p=189Chuck Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08445244949701302380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-923571518579487836.post-62288845072173120642017-10-23T15:44:45.975-05:002017-10-23T15:44:45.975-05:00I didn't include shows and mini-series in this...I didn't include shows and mini-series in this list, but that might be good to include.<br /><br />Jesus of Nazareth (1977)<br />Testament: The Bible in Animation (1996)<br />The Bible (2013)<br />A.D.
