thank you for this question. it’s been in my head also. how far I might have to go in order to refuse this. it would be so evil to be held back from loved ones in these types of cases. in my refusal to take the shot, it wouldn’t be as simple as saying “no” if I faced something like that. I’d be extremely upset. if I knew what room my loved one is in, I’d be likely to desperately bust through the doors somehow and get there to see them, before being arrested for doing so. I am prepared to always say no. I can’t fathom how awful the consequences could be. it seems like something thats hard to prepare for. being prayerful when that type of moment comes, might be all I will have. I feel that when it goes that far in this world, we will be so close to “consequences” anyway, that there will not be much left to lose as it is. a huge goal of mine is to not give in to the fear. maybe God will provide a way for me to get through these obstacles without much affecting me, or maybe He will want me in jail. wherever He sends me, for doing what’s right in His eyes, I will embrace it, knowing evil is running rampant, knowing what my human rights are, and understanding that He will send me where His mission is for me.
I also find it difficult to believe that children of non-believers will be left behind. I’d like to see scripture to back up that idea.
I just scrolled down from the comment I’d replied to, and realized what it may have stemmed from- yours, lol. forgive me if it seemed I misinterpreted your comment. I hadn’t seen it yet. but I have seen many random people say that it makes sense to consider the shot if you are old. so that’s who I was referring to. thanks for sending me a reply, so I could realize I needed to clarify to you. <3
Thank you for your thoughts!! I agree!!!
If you watch and know the Word of God you can help lead others to the truth. You can comment intelligently when a new believer has questions. I believe the show can help bring in new believers and God will do the rest. For ex. The show speculates and depicts that Matthew is autistic / social issues to take on the role of being a hated tax collector, it is possible the Bible doesn’t say, we can point this out, the works of Christ and salvation is biblical. We can point non believers to the show and pray that Christ will convict them.
Good points.

Hi, you might like to take a look at this about the Chosen.
I did try and watch the first episode, but the portrayal of Nicodemus trying to rebuke a demon from Mary Magdalene in the name of Raphael is not scriptural and there are many other things about this series that aren’t. The producer is also someone to be wary of. Blessings to you… 
Five plus years have passed since I turned on to these truly inspirational updates. Pastor JD is not only cutting edge where Bible prophecy goes but I begin to appreciate his in depth treatment of the entire Counsel of God. He genuinely never went to any seminary or Bible college, but he sure can more than take on any of those collar preachers.
About the Chosen :
(copied/ pasted):
The first 8 minutes is sufficient to know all we need to know about the TV Chosen’s Jesus. Producer and Creator Dallas Jenkins is deceived. This is an interview with a Mormon. Dallas Jenkins is basically becoming a universalist. He literally says that evangelicals and Mormons have the same mission to make the authentic Jesus known to the world. Later in that minute (31) he says that the LDS Jerusalem set is a testament to their service to God and stewarding it to the glory of God. He is beholden to the LDS church to use their set and distribution network. Of course this is going to influence what he says when interviewed. If he somehow thinks his process is untainted or does not have outside influences working on what he writes and presents, he is self deceived. The LDS interviewer said he wouldn’t change anything. The Chosen Jesus is his Jesus too. A Universal Jesus that everyone can relate too, how special. I don’t care how this film makes you FEEL or how it has supposedly changed your life. You aren’t getting closer to the Jesus of the BIBLE, but a FALSE Jesus.
What DO the Mormons believe about Jesus? What is the Mormon Jesus?
- He is the brother of Satan
- Jesus was Created
- Both Jesus and Satan were given free will to choose to be evil or good and that the earthly life was a testing ground to see if they would qualify to be God or not.
What do they believe about God
-Mormons claim that God the Father was once a man and that he then progressed to godhood (that is, he is a now-exalted, immortal man with a flesh-and-bone body).
What about the Trinity?
-Mormons believe that the Trinity consists not of three persons in one God but rather of three distinct gods. According to Mormonism, there are potentially many thousands of gods besides these.
Another article about the Chosen (sorry, it’s a bit long):
The Chosen, The Shift, and Dallas Jenkins
Hello brothers and sisters,
The Bereans have long been seen as a positive example of how a person or community should respond to things taught in the name of God. What can we learn from the noble Bereans? Acts 17: 10-11 tells us that “The brothers immediately sent Paul and Silas away by night to Berea, and when they arrived, they went into the Jewish synagogue. Now, these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the Word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.”
They received the Word with eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so.
What a wonderful reminder to us to do the same! There is so much taught in the name of God online, in churches, in devotions, in small groups, on TV. Not all of it is good despite the Christian label slapped on to it. As Christians, we should be testing all who present themselves as teachers in the church universal, and there is no point where we should stop testing what they teach against Scripture. This includes teaching from famous names like John MacArthur, Chris Rosebrough, Justin Peters, Steve Lawson, etc. It is also probably worth extending a general caution about Christian YouTube/podcasting/TV personalities. We know nothing about many of these people. We don’t know where most of them go to church, their relationship with their church, how they live their lives, their testimony, their statement of faith, etc. It is not necessarily wrong to listen to such personalities, but we must always remember to test everything they say against the Word of God.
As Got Questions succinctly states, “Jesus warned us that “false Christs and false prophets” will come and will attempt to deceive even God’s elect (Matthew 24:23-27; see also 2 Peter 3:3 and Jude 17-18). The best way to guard yourself against falsehood and false teachers is to know the truth. To spot a counterfeit, study the real thing. Any believer who “correctly handles the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15) and who makes a careful study of the Bible can identify false doctrine. For example, a believer who has read the activities of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in Matthew 3:16-17 will immediately question any doctrine that denies the Trinity. Therefore, we must study the Bible and judge all teaching by what the Scripture says.” (https://www.gotquestions.org/false-teachers.html)
And so, today, the admin team asks you to examine carefully with us a recent cultural phenomenon, The Chosen and its creator Dallas Jenkins. We ask you to join us in comparing what is being taught in the name of God to the Word of God (as Pastor Rosebrough says). This is a wonderful opportunity to practice building discernment by testing things against the Word of God together.
The Chosen
What is The Chosen? The Chosen is a TV show created by Dallas Jenkins that claims to tell the story of the “authentic” Christ. The second season of the show is currently airing, but Mr. Jenkins has publicly stated that he plans to make seven seasons. The second season of The Chosen was filmed in Goshen, Utah, on the set replica of ancient Jerusalem built by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS). The show’s hashtag is “Get Used to Different.”
So let us look at some aspects of the show and things Mr. Jenkins has publicly said and compare those things to Scripture.
The Sufficiency of Scripture
We will start with this video https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=199124504481322 dated May 30, 2020 (I will call this Video 1 at times). In this video, Mr. Jenkins states The Chosen is not a replacement for Scripture at the 48-second mark and the 3:03 mark. This is absolutely true! “The apostle Paul declared that the Holy Scriptures “are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:15–17). If Scripture is “God-breathed,” then it is not man-breathed, and, although it was penned by men, those “men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit” (2 Peter 1:21). No man-made writing is sufficient to equip us for every good work; only the Word of God can do that. Furthermore, if the Scriptures are sufficient to thoroughly equip us, then nothing more is needed.” (https://www.gotquestions.org/sufficiency-of-Scripture.htm) Nothing more is needed.
Except, Mr. Jenkins claims God “pressed it on his heart,” and others, that this would be one of the high callings of their lives and that he must take responsibility to tell the story of God’s people with extreme care and dedication (2:20 timestamp of Video 1). He repeats this claim in a recent interview with Melissa Dougherty (https://youtu.be/__-Yyq1FPQI ). Starting at the timestamp 13:40 through to about 15 minutes in the interview with Ms. Dougherty, Mr. Jenkins claims that he felt God speaking to him 3-4 times in his life. He claimed he felt God “laying on his heart” that “in several years The Chosen was going to be what people thought of when they pictured the disciples.” He went on to say, “I felt like God was saying that ‘this will be the definitive portrayal of My people and this is what people are going to think of around the world when they think of My people. And I’m not going to let you screw it up.’” Claims of having heard a special message directly from God aside (as we could spend a whole post talking about that claim alone), if The Chosen is not a replacement for Scripture, why would God purportedly say it will be what people think of when they picture the disciples or why would it be the definitive portrayal of God’s people? Do we need something more than the Bible to know what God wants us to know? By definition, The Chosen and the Bible cannot both be the definitive portrayal of God’s people. And if Mr. Jenkins is claiming that God told him The Chosen would be the definitive portrayal of God’s people, what does that say of Mr. Jenkin’s actual view of the Bible? What does it say about what he supposedly heard from God? His statements are contradictory at best and show a low view of God’s Word at worst.
Adding to Scripture
To further complicate matters about Mr. Jenkins’s views on the sufficiency of Scripture, in video 1, Mr. Jenkins says he believes the Bible is the Word of God and needs no improvement (timestamp 2:30 – 3:00). Yet, by his own admission, he knowingly adds historical, cultural, and artistic details and states he does not believe this changes the Bible itself (timestamp 3:03-3:13 of Video 1). Of course, such additions do not change the actual Bible, but the changes mean he is not accurately portraying the written Word of God. Additionally, he adds more than historical, cultural, and artistic information. He has added information about the disciples, for instance, that Matthew is autistic and James the Lesser has cerebral palsy. He imagines and presents feuds between disciples and backstory that is never mentioned in the Bible. A reading of each episode’s synopsis shows extensive examples of extra-biblical information (like Peter breaking the Sabbath to fish and the extensive story arch resulting form that addition). Yet, we are warned not to add to or change the Word of God. “Although the warning in Revelation 22:18-19 is specific to the Book of Revelation, the principle applies to anyone who seeks to intentionally distort God’s Word. Moses gave a similar warning in Deuteronomy 4:1-2, where he cautioned the Israelites that they must listen to and obey the commandments of the Lord, neither adding to nor taking away from His revealed Word. Proverbs 30:5-6 contains a similar admonition to anyone who would add to God’s words: he will be rebuked and proven to be a liar. Although the warning in Revelation 22:18-19 applies specifically to the Book of Revelation, its principle must be applied to the entire revealed Word of God. We must be careful to handle the Bible with care and reverence so as to not distort its message.” (https://www.gotquestions.org/Revelation-22-18-19.html) The cannon of Scripture is closed. We do not need additional revelation through television episodes or self-proclaimed, modern-day prophets or apostles.
God determined that what we need to believe about Him and what He requires of us. He reveals that information in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament. It does not come from a movie or TV show that embellishes details to move us beyond what the Scriptures say.
Jesus
Mr. Jenkins also puts words into the mouth of Jesus that absolutely present Him in a different way than the Gospels did. For example, in this trailer (https://watch.angelstudios.com/thechosen), the actor portraying Jesus says, “If we are going to have a question and answer time every time there is something you are not used to, we will have a very annoying time for all of us.” Or, “Get used to different.” In this clip (https://boxofficerevolution.wordpress.com/…/the-chosen…/), the actor portraying Jesus says, “I’m here to start a revolution” and “I want my people to participate in the healing of the world.” Not only does this not sound like the Jesus of the Bible at all, but it also presents a message that is different than the Good News found in scriptures. Mr. Jenkins manages to present some biblical truth in The Chosen, but it is always with extra-biblical (or un-biblical) additions. It is inevitably Jesus +. He does this with the approval of his friends and biblical consultants – a Catholic, a Jew, and an Evangelical (https://youtu.be/wRN3PtFebyo and https://fb.watch/5i_UnshiiR/). While he has found some religious scholars to publicly affirm his choices, this does not make his decisions right.
In this clip (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EN-B1sIt2_Q&feature=youtu.be), Mr. Jenkins discusses filming the scene where Jesus is seen preparing and writing the Sermon on the Mount. In it, Jesus is “sermon prepping” in a very unbiblical presentation not gleaned from Scripture. Jesus is fully God. He spoke the world into being! He speaks with the full authority of Heaven! We see in John 12: 49-50 Jesus said, “For I have not spoken on my own authority, but the Father who sent me has himself given me a commandment – what to say and what to speak. And I know that his commandment is eternal life. What I say, therefore, I say as the Father has told me.” Jesus spoke precisely what the Father gave Him to speak. No preparation was necessary. To make this unbiblical presentation even worse, at timestamp 1:50, Jesus asked Matthew, “Which section stands out to you the most?” As if our Lord needed reassurance or feedback from one of His followers!
Creating a universally loved Jesus and universally approved Gospel?
In the interview Mr. Jenkins gave to Melissa Dougherty (https://youtu.be/__-Yyq1FPQI), he states around the 15:35 mark that “[The Chosen] is really focused solely on the stories of Jesus. Which means that a lot of people from a lot of different tribes all love it…LDS, Catholic, Greek Orthodox, whatever. And they don’t disagree about the show, which makes a lot of people nervous because they’re like, wait a minute, we are supposed to disagree…supposed to be angry at each other.”
What Mr. Jenkins fails to understand is that many of these “tribes” teach heretical things about Jesus that are incompatible with saving faith. For example, Mormons believe that Jesus Christ was the firstborn spirit-child of the heavenly Father and a heavenly Mother. Jesus then progressed to deity in the spirit world. A belief in such a Jesus does not result in salvation but damnation. Which, by the way, does not make true believers angry. It makes us sad and spurs us to evangelize and pray for the lost. The fact that Mormons see this show and cannot tell that there is a difference between the Jesus they follow and the Biblical Jesus should give Mr. Jenkins pause. It should not, as it seems to do, reassure him that his show is really good. Something is not true or good simply because a large group of people thinks it is so. That is a logical fallacy called argumentum ad populum, or the bandwagon fallacy. If everyone says the Jesus of The Chosen is the Jesus they know, something is wrong with the presentation. Jesus proclaimed, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me” (John 14:6). It is vital that we have a proper understanding of Jesus.
As for Catholics and Greek Orthodox, while they have a seemingly proper understanding of the hypostatic union, they do not recognize the work of Jesus on the cross as FINISHED. They preach a different Gospel and put the heavy yoke of works righteousness on their followers. Our Lord’s burden is easy, and His yoke is light (Matthew 11:30). There is nothing we can do to save ourselves or sanctify ourselves. Jesus did the work! Ephesians 2:8–9 teaches, “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.” God’s grace saves us, and grace, by definition, cannot be earned. We do not deserve salvation; we simply receive it by faith. Like the LDS, if Catholics and Greek Orthodox can watch The Chosen and not see how their false Gospel is different from the real Gospel clearly presented in the Bible, perhaps The Chosen is not giving a clear Gospel presentation.
Mr. Jenkins takes everything a step further than seeking widespread approval of his presentation of Jesus and the Gospel. He seems to actively try to appease other religious groups and incorporate their viewpoints while often denying he does so. In his interview with Ms. Dougherty, he repeatedly claimed that he is not swayed by nor did he incorporate LDS theology into his work. We will delve into his promotion of LDS theology more below, so I’ll set that aside and focus on his deliberate collaboration with representatives from other religions.
In this episode 1 behind the scenes video (https://youtu.be/wRN3PtFebyo), Mr. Jenkins introduces the Catholic, Evangelical and Jewish religious consultants for the show. In this video, he readily admits that he is trying to portray their religious viewpoints accurately and gives several examples of how he incorporates their religious views into the show. Furthermore, his desire to be accepted and approved by any who claim Christ is evident in a video he did with a Catholic and Evangelical about Mary (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=261971134851669). Around the 3:50 timestamp, Mr. Jenkins said he was “a little nervous from a Catholic perspective. Would they be comfortable seeing Mary as worried, as even incorrect?” He also takes great pains around the 4:40 mark to promote the Catholic position that Hail Mary prayers are supposed to point the supplicant to Jesus. In reference to how he portrayed Mary from the Catholic perspective, Mr. Jenkins asked the Catholic priest around the 8-minute mark, “How’d we do?” Why is he catering to the Catholic perspective of Mary? Why is he incorporating Catholic and Jewish interpretations of Jesus and the Gospel? This all comes across as an effort to cater to the widest group of people who claim to be God’s people. In so doing, he cannot hold to nor present biblical truth.
Mr. Jenkins: Authority and Teaching
In Video 1 (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=199124504481322), Mr. Jenkins peddles his evangelical street creds (and he repeats them in his interview with Ms. Dougherty). He explains that he has been part of a conservative bible-believing background his whole life and was a Bible major in college. But does the fact that he was raised in Christian culture and was a Bible major in college makes him more reliable when it comes to rightly dividing the Word of God? No. It does not. Mr. Jenkins repeatedly says in interviews and social media posts that he holds to orthodox Christian teaching. However, nowhere does he post a clear statement of faith, confessional statement, or guiding creed. We have to take him at his word. Video 1 is labeled as his statement of faith, but, in no way was it a typical statement of faith. After watching it, we know nothing of his actual stance on the primary doctrines of the faith. We do, however, have an understanding of the show’s values.
Mr. Jenkins and his wife have positioned themselves as Bible teachers. Through collaboration with other people, they now write and sell several devotionals, Bible study guides, and other material that correspond to the show. As such, their theology matters. Their ability to rightly handle the Word of God matters. Yet, in one sponsored ad, Mr. Jenkins promoted his Bible study guide as a tool to “explore the scriptural context that augments your viewing experience.” (emphasis added) This is completely backward! If, as Mr. Jenkins has claimed, Scripture, not The Chosen, is our authority, why is it that it is Scripture that augments the show and not the other way around? Not that it is much better the other way around, theologically speaking. But Mr. Jenkins has shown in this statement his true view of Scripture and that it is there to augment his show, his vision, his Jesus.
The fruit of the Spirit
The admin team has some concerns over some of Mr. Jenkins’s online behavior. If anyone has a problem with what he does, Mr. Jenkins deflects and says, “get used to different.” If he gets critical feedback, he presents it disparagingly on his Facebook page, where it is mocked by his followers. This is not a Christian response to those who raise valid concerns about the primary doctrines of the faith. There is much that could be said here. But rather than go into it in-depth, I urge you to peruse his social media presence and see who it glorifies and who it attacks. Does he glorify the Lord or himself? Does he seek to placate the masses or hold to the truth? Does he clearly love the brethren, or does he treat them mockingly?
Marketing and partnerships
Many Christians have expressed concern with Mr. Jenkins’s partnership with the LDS church. Yet, he brushes off these concerns as irrelevant. Partnering with a cult that endeavors to be seen as Christian is dangerous. It gives the cult respectability and makes them seem as though they are part of mainstream Christianity. In his interview with Ms. Dougherty, Mr. Jenkins tried to equate his partnership with the LDS church to using an atheist space. While yes, atheists are unsaved, just like Mormons, they aren’t masquerading as Christians either. There is a vital difference in that which Mr. Jenkins absolutely refuses to see. He also refused to take a stand on Mormonism in that interview, which was quite suspicious. Even if the LDS church is not outright telling Mr. Jenkins what to do or what to write, you can be sure that having LDS folks run his distribution platform, own the set he is filming on, and providing many crew members, there is influence taking place. He is not going to write lines or portray something that might interfere with that support network. They don’t even have to say anything. He knows that continued support is necessary. That is influence – whether he recognizes it as such or not.
Sadly, though, Mr. Jenkins partners with far more than the LDS church. He partners with NAR worship leaders who sing on set and participate in the show. Individuals like Bethelite Sean Feucht, Elevation Church-connected Cody Carnes and Kari Jobe, Hillsong, Chris Tomlin, and Phil Wickham. They also partner with catholic Matt Maher. All of this is seen on The Chosen Facebook page. The undiscerning may see these artists on the page, hear their catchy tunes, and look up the dangerous churches from which they come. Churches that peddle the unbiblical prosperity gospel promote false prophets and teach heretical things about Jesus and the Gospel.
Which brings us to another issue:
The Shift
Dallas Jenkins has done more than partner with Mormons to market, make and distribute The Chosen. He has signed on as an executive producer to The Shift. The Shift is a short film written and directed by Mormon Brock Heasley. I beg you not to watch this blasphemous, heretical film. Truly, it is terrible. It is a Mormon depiction of Satan, temptation, and prayer, and it presents their theology of other worlds. Mr. Heasley refers to himself as a Christian filmmaker and presents his aberrant theology as Christian. It is not. And now Mr. Jenkins has signed up to make the full-length movie version of this short film.
Admin Richard Moore summed up The Shift nicely. He said, “stay away unless you want to be influenced by the theology of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons). Problems include:
-
It makes Satan more powerful than he is. i.e., the power to move people to other planets, realities, and determine destinies. Satan does NOT have that power. GOD IS SOVEREIGN!
-
“Open Theism” perspective in which God is helpless against the devil’s schemes.
-
It makes us more powerful than we are to command Satan to do anything.
-
And removes or at least doesn’t mention the power of the Gospel to overcome Satan through the vicarious sin-bearing work of Christ Jesus on the cross.”
“Concerning Satan, the Bible gives the following information (https://www.gotquestions.org/Satan-in-the-Bible.html):
-
Satan is a personal being with a mind, emotions, and a will (Job 1; Matthew 4:1–12).
-
He is a created being and is not equal to God (Ezekiel 28:15).
-
Satan does not rule hell. Hell was created as a punishment for Satan and his demons (Matthew 25:41). Neither does Satan live in hell, as the Bible describes how he can enter Heaven and roam the earth (Job 1:6–7).
-
The devil can only do what God allows (Job 1:12).
-
Satan is not omnipresent. But he does oversee a horde of demons, called “the powers of this dark world and . . . the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12). He uses this network to tempt and deceive people.
-
He actively works to nullify the effect of the Word of God in people’s hearts (Matthew 13:3–4, 19), and he blinds the intellect of those who do not believe so they cannot understand the Gospel (2 Corinthians 4:4).”
Concerning Open Theism (https://www.gotquestions.org/open-theism.html and https://carm.org/open-theism/what-is-open-theism/):
******** Continued (The Chosen) (it didn’t fit in one post)
- Open theism bases these beliefs on Scripture passages that describe God “changing His mind” or “being surprised” or “seeming to gain knowledge” (Genesis 6:6; 22:12; Exodus 32:14; Jonah 3:10). In light of the many other Scriptures that declare God’s knowledge of the future, these Scriptures should be understood as God describing Himself in ways that we can understand. God knows what our actions and decisions will be, but He “changes His mind” in regard to His actions based on our actions. God’s disappointment at the wickedness of humanity does not mean He was not aware it would occur. In contradiction to open theism, Psalm 139:4, 16 states, “Before a word is on my tongue you know it completely, O LORD…All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”
Dallas Jenkins is a self-professed Christian. Many have questioned his partnership with Mormons for the Chosen. He claimed in a recent interview with Melissa Dougherty that he is not influenced by LDS theology but that he can recognize it. I have to ask, does he recognize it? Can he not see the heretical teaching in this short film? Apparently not. In this ad (https://fb.watch/5aGLHVyi6p/), he promotes the movie and explains why he signed on as Executive Producer. At time stamp 1:17, Mr. Jenkins said, “The message of The Shift is so important.” At 1:53, Mr. Jenkins said, “When I read what he is writing, I’m connected to it……it reaches me both at an intellectual level and an emotional level. And if you’ve seen The Chosen, maybe that’s what you have appreciated about it as well.” At 2:28, “There is an umbrella over it of spiritual importance. Something is being said about our universe and who created it. That is what The Shift is about. That is what The Chosen is about.”
What is being said in The Shift is heretical. What is being said in The Shift is wrong. Mr. Jenkins either does not know that, or he does not care. In either event, this is dangerous.
I like it! Great way to share God’s Truth from His creation.
Very interesting video. Thanks. Some things i was not aware of. I had some of this down in 2017. I don’t really see evidence that Trump is a freemason. But one never knows. The one weak link in this video though, to me, is Daniel 11:37. Trump aligning himself with Christianity (even though remotely and weirdly) along with his support for freedom of religion and catering to the Christian right…even though much to heresy as well, infers to me a sense of “regard.” The regard meter is too high with him to suggest him as AC, in my understanding of that Daniel passage. Blessings.
Yep, That’s a hard one but since many have to goofy notion I am an elderly I see it different.
i never judge them But i would consider asking them if they knew then what they know now, would they still do it?
Then as long as I see the door is willingly open I keep delivering the message.
Be kind but it is a matter of life and death and wise as a serpent but gental as a dove.
Shalom
Thanks for replying…yes he did say that, but what about people who don’t really know their Bible…if they don’t know what’s true and what’s fictional, how can they not be deceived and confused…I have watched many movies portraying the life of Christ etc and then I read this which got me thinking…once again, each to his own, but we are in time of great deceit…blessings to you

I personally feel a bit closer in my walk with Jesus since watching this show. I feel it portrays more of a human and real side of our Creator, and his disciples. I am NOT mormon or Catholic or any other religion. I have been taught the Word of God all my life and whole heartedly believe the Bible and the Gospel of Jesus Christ. So that does that mean I am yolking myself to an unbeliever because I watch it? I don’t think so. I also feel like this will be a good series for my son to watch with his girlfriend, as she does not know Jesus, which is really what life boils down to, isn’t it? Getting people to Jesus! Anyway, say or post what you will about the show, I’m still going to watch.
And I think maybe I’ll stop reading people’s comments in this forum and judgements of others.
