I see “propitiation” as less a turning aside of wrath, and more a restoring of a relationship that was broken. More like the embrace of the Father at the return of the Prodigal Son that heals the relationship that the son broke.

What is your opinion of Ben Hur? (It contains inaccuracies.)

My view is irrelevant. You “real Christians” already voted with your dollars and “faithful” movies still attracted haters while losing their financial shirts. So, don’t shoot the messenger … you created the reality (I saw the bad movies to try and support Christian film makers).

Reading a book is not theatrical drama, no. Portraying Jesus like a Puritain Minister sent to stamp out JOY is not relatable, no.

The Lumo Project: Founded by Alex Proyas, this multi-film series uses unabridged, word-for-word Gospel text as its script, with narrators reading the scripture over acted, historically accurate depictions of Jesus’s life. The Gospel of John (2003): Directed by Philip Saville, this epic 3-hour...

Ok, using ONLY the Bible, prove Mark wrote the Gospel of Mark. (Since we are discarding Biblical Scholars and Theology and only the Bible counts.)

Many of what you call “problems” are not true problems. You do realize that people have made verbatim dramatizations of scripture that include exactly what is in the Bible and add NOTHING that is not … few people watch them. The Chosen deliberately set out to do something different. It is a...

The verbatim identical portions of Matthew and Mark indicate to most textural scholars that SOMETHING existed as a written reference source from which both writers drew (as each was “inspired by the Holy Spirit to create the Gospels that bear their name). If the Holy Spirit was able to use a...

Some of the editorial choices in The Chosen didn’t really bother me the way it bothered other people. 1. I think portraying Jesus spending his time aside to refine drafts of his sermons was an inaccurate poetic license, but I also believe that the Biblical narrative is a literary compilation of...

Is it worth looking to see whether the allegations are true or Christians are posting lies? (That seems more important than the accuracy of ANY supposed “biblical“ show.) I found false statements and half-truths, so I pointed them out.

I was curious about something that you said, so I asked AI: Yes, The Chosen does include a scene where a 12-year-old Jesus is told by His father, Joseph, that He committed a "transgression" for staying behind in the temple, but the show portrays this strictly as a parental joke rather than an...

See, THIS is attacking the show (which is reasonable opinion - right or wrong) unlike arguing that the Advisor (Evangelical Dr. Doug Huffman) is a "Mormon" or the show teaches "Mormon theology" because they put Derral Evans in charge of their "social media platforms" (his area of expertise).

Derral Evans evaluated the Biblical accuracy of NOTHING (which is the point that I was making). The attacks on the Chosen for hiring him and the accusation that Derral played some part in the theology of the Chosen is just an ad hominem attack seeking “guilt by association” through spreading...

More hate I see … So who is Derral Eves and what does he do? “Eves graduated from Southern Utah University with a degree in public relations and advertising. His first job was the assistant director of public relations at a hospital in Utah but he left to start his own interactive agency in...

Quote from link: 1. Dallas Jenkins – I’ve talked about this before, so I’m only going to touch on it. Jenkins is the producer and creative mind behind the show. He has made it clear that he believes Mormons, Catholics, and Christians “love the same Jesus” and have only a few minor theological...

I have only one question: Did you actually WATCH the Chosen and those are YOUR complaints about what they got wrong, or is that all just “hearsay” that someone told you they got wrong? If you watched it and believe they got the Gospel wrong, we can discuss the details. If you are passing on a...

Some data: Total Viewership: Over 300 million worldwide across the dedicated app, Netflix, and Amazon Prime Video. Non-Religious Audience: Roughly one-third of this demographic (about 100 million people) are non-Christian or have no religious affiliation. Survey Demographics: According to...

No, it is not, but people in costume speaking lines from the Gospels verbatim in Aramaic will attract an audience of approximately ONE [you]. Anything else will require SOME “dramatic license” that someone will object to as “not in the Bible” or “not accurate”. Then the complaint is “why are...

The company that I work for is involved in the rollout of a new brand of Electric Car. During our research into infrastructure for hundreds of new dealerships and ‘fast chargers’ over the next two years, we uncovered some interesting data on Electric capacity and demand. Based on the rate of...

Yes, you are wrong. The show originally had a contract with a Mormon owned company (Angel Studios) to ‘distribute’ the product through an online app. A Mediator ultimately ruled that “Angel Studios” violated the contract and dissolved the contract. The Producers (who are NOT Mormon) now...
