The Unholy Movie quote

Renniks · Apr 1, 2021

"Be careful who you pray to."
Ok, so if you go watch the trailer, the basic premise is that a girl is doing miracles supposedly by the power of The Virgin Mary, but actually it's Satan. I actually agree with the line above, as a protestant. Praying to Mary is wrong. Can Satan use prayers to those other than God and Jesus and the Holy Spirit to manipulate us into believing he is someone good? I say yes. Because he is called an angel of light, not because he has light in him, but because he can appear that way. I can see why Catholics might not like the film, though and I'm not advocating seeing it, as I'm sure it's quite scary. But blasphemous? That I'm not sure about. Comments?

I sort of might want to see it. *Dodges tomatoes* I wasn't going to start a topic about it but I really like horror films.

I'm curious as to what @JohnDB has to say about this since he's a rather laid back Christian like me.

I deeply dislike horror films...I believe that they are demonic in nature.

If you say so...

I wouldn't recommend to you that you indulge in that which is demonic in nature.

But of course, you have your own will.

Matthew 22:20-22 "he asked, “Whose picture and title are stamped on it?” “Caesar’s,” they replied.
“Well, then,” he said, “give to Caesar what belongs to Caesar, and give to God what belongs to God.”

Finally,brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable - – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things. Philippians 4:8

Ok, as far as horror movies in general, I've never been a big fan, but I have watched some stuff that might qualify for the title.
But I also find it fascinating that Hollywood is so obsessed with good versus evil. In a world where relativism seems to be the predominant moral compass or rather lack of one, we still have all this entertainment whose main theme is good versus evil. I mean look at the whole Marvel franchise.
Did anyone watch "Logan"?
Again, I don't recommend it for everybody because it has a lot of language in it and violence, but it also has a rather biblical theme of redemption.
Sometimes I think the world understands that there really is a war going on better than Christians do.

Never heard of it before.

I don't advocate setting evil before one's eyes either. But ...at the request of a survivor of MK/SRA who I respect, I watched some of the "Stranger Things" series, because it is largely based on what really happens to victims of MK Ultra (Montauk, etc). I didn't watch all of it and skipped past some parts... but that series has a lot of truth in it as far as what happens with MK Ultra. Has anyone seen that series?

April_Rose · Apr 1, 2021

No, but I've heard of it before.

Pearl · Apr 1, 2021

I try to steer clear of anything dark. A lot of our TV dramas have been quite dark lately so have not watched them. And I definitely wouldn't watch anything violent or full of sex or horror films. I'm also quite choosy about what I read.

I don't think you can open yourself up to any dark stuff without being affected in some way by it. It's insidious and creeps into your mind even though you think it won't.

Logan is the last Wolverine movie. From Marvel's X-Men series. It is rather dark.

The disciples didn’t run from demons so what’s the problem?

We see them all over both testaments so they are a reality. What’s the difference between reading about them in the Bible and watching a Bible based movie that has them on the big screen ?

For me, the Bible edifies and Hollywood does not. God's agenda is for my good, while, in general, Hollywood is run by powers who would like to destroy us.

And personally, I don't find horror movies about demons to be entertaining.

Much love!

Did you ever watch the passion of the Christ ?

TLHKAJ · Apr 1, 2021

Honestly, there's a difference in choosing not to seek out evil content to be entertained by, and "running from evil." But ... scripture says we should do exactly that. Not that we should be fearful, but we should be respectful of the Holy Spirit who indwells us and not grieve Him.

Psalm 101:2-4 (KJV) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ² I will behave myself wisely in a perfect way. O when wilt thou come unto me? I will walk within my house with a perfect heart. ³ I will set no wicked thing before mine eyes: I hate the work of them that turn aside; it shall not cleave to me. ⁴ A froward heart shall depart from me: I will not know a wicked person.

1 Thessalonians 5:21-23 (KJV) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ²¹ Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. ²² Abstain from all appearance of evil. ²³ And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Watching a Christian movie that exposes evil or shows the violence that Christ endured on our behalf is different from watching a horror movie.

Have you ever watched this movie?

Yes I did, and what a mistake that was!

I went, as so many 1000's did, because our pastors told us to see it.

Huge mistake!

Much love!
