    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    How critical of a program (any program, not just The Chosen) should we expect fans of a program to be?

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    Let’s pose your question to someone who - unlike myself - is watching the series and answers your question in the affirmative. ”Heresies are in The Chosen tv series … the real danger of this show is in how it introduces the audience to Jesus Christ … the show also presents false teaching about...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    Would you by chance happen to be a Christadelphian? I ask because you sound like one to me, but I don’t want to assume that you are.

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    To the best of my knowledge, all of the reviews of The Chosen I’ve quoted and documented have come from Protestant reviewers. Here is one from a Catholic reviewer. I think the title of the review is sufficient and therefore won’t take the time to provide an excerpt from it...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    I don’t know if it matters to anyone or not but all of the reviews I’ve read so far which assert that there are problems with doctrinal issues in The Chosen have been authored by trinitarians.

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    So the spirit of madness is everywhere but not everywhere. I haven’t read any reviews of the program which speak in terms of the spirit of madness in The Chosen, though several have mentioned that demonic possession is presented - which one might consider to be the spirit of madness.

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    In 15 minutes of viewing time, no doctrinal issues for me. I pointed out that several reviewers have asserted that there are doctrinal issues for them, and that still others have asserted that when it comes to doctrine we’re - intentionally - being given very little in order to appeal to as...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    Yours is a self-imposed exile. I left the door open when you left and welcome your return. Feel free to come and go as you please. You fictionalized me with this comment and the sentiment expressed is far from the truth of what I believe. I wrote and posted something several days ago...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    A universally appealing Jesus. Is that the real Jesus? No. Where do we find the real Jesus? We find the real Jesus where the creator of The Chosen asks his viewers to look for him -> the Gospels. This has come up a number of times by fans of the program, and it’s good as far as it goes. Does...

    Is the spirit of madness in The Chosen? Please don’t reply with what you have already stated.

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    I’ve only watched a portion of one episode and the clip that @Wrangler provided. The portion of one episode I watched was goofy. (I commented to Wrangler that Soupy Sales came to mind when I saw it.) The clip he asked me to watch placed words in Jesus’ mouth that probably came subliminally from...

    It should be said. Yes, I believe it. Does everyone believe it? No. No. Repeating the truth drives home the point. False.

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    This is the image of Jesus that was hanging on my bedroom wall at my grandparents’ house. To this day when I read scripture, this image sometimes still comes into my mind. It’s definitely not what the real Jesus looked like. This is an image of Jesus that is much closer to what Jesus actually...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    Everyone should be asking themselves that question. Everyone has been impacted in varying degrees by these external influences. That is precisely what I’m drawing attention to and warning about. The Chosen is just a vehicle I used - thanks to @Wrangler - to start the conversation about the...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    “I have a conviction derived out of God’s word that it is unwise to depict Jesus with actors. … The issue at play is worship because there is a concept being implanted in your mind. This is a wisdom issue and an application issue. But as you can hear, a wisdom and application issue is not a...

    The Chosen - Godly Truth or Dangerous Fiction?

    Is the spirit of madness in The Chosen? It isn’t a series about Jesus. It is a series about a reimagined Jesus and about reimagined apostles. Will those reimagined images in your head interfere when you read about the true Jesus and the true apostles in the New Testament? (See post #323.)
