The thing is, by it’s nature, a drama brings to life a director’s interpretation of a character, and in this modern culture, one contextualised to our own culture.

@johwhitt @AndrewS76825037 @Carpet16100850 @CreatedforaPur1 @Curi_Christian @CSLCHSnMore @EhzNow @JesseDornfeld @men_like_trees @StoneKamino @virginia_garret I am honestly curious to understand how people feel about The Chosen because it’s having such an impact in popular culture. Some people, me included, are convicted about worldly portayals of Christ, because this can distract from their own idea formed directly by the word of God.

This song is not what you thought it was. In fact it’s everything you probably didn’t think it was. If you’ve never read the lyrics, do. google.com/search?kgmid=/…

@virginia_garret @JoshIdachaba Totally.

@bel_cardwell @CSLCHSnMore Interesting how no-one who’s seen and responded to my tweet so far have watched it. That says a lot. I’d read a few critical reviews previously but wondered if they had an agenda… But I’m even more convicted now…

@CSLCHSnMore How come? I’m curious as to why. I was wondering if I was an oddity as quite a lot of people in the Christian network at work are raving about it. And pushed back with surprise when I said I was uncomfortable with the liberties it had taken (from what I’d read).

@RealPaulAhnert @AndrewS76825037 @Carpet16100850 @CreatedforaPur1 @Curi_Christian @CSLCHSnMore @EhzNow @JesseDornfeld @men_like_trees @StoneKamino @virginia_garret I must admit I hold Biblical dramatisations to a higher standard than secular art. ‘You shall not take the name of the Lord your God in vain’. They are certainly not a replacement for scripture and can be dangerous if license veers into heresy. Don’t know if that is the case here

I’m wondering. What is your opinion on The Chosen? I’ve not watched it yet and am unusually conflicted. Wonder if I’m overthinking.

Romans 11:36 Since all things are from God, and through God, and for God, it follows that He deserves all the glory forever (ESV Study Bible). buff.ly/3xOxxDU t.co/jEhPd4tWh…

@virginia_garret @JoshIdachaba And it only took an hour!

No-one is ‘good enough’ to get into Heaven. Christ gave himself as a sacrifice for our sins, his blood washing us clean. He is the only reason we are saved - not because of me, but because of Him. I do find it extraordinary that Peterson doesn’t get this. youtu.be/3Dvg28VlA_s

Isaiah 5:22. Woe to those who are heroes at drinking wine and champions at mixing drinks. buff.ly/3R8YZ6u t.co/l7NWDqZrv…

@Stuartall1977 @AdamPage85 I don’t think anxiety really captures what He was going through at that moment. Im not sure man could fathom what Christ was going through in Gethsemane. His fully human nature was facing something that only his Deity could fully conceive. The weight of all sin for all of mankind

@realGeorgeHotz Can we have an easy way of determining the sentiment of our Timeline? Quite seriously I’d pay for a timeline that was of positive sentiment, no conflict / negativity. At the moment I have to try and manage this through Lists and muted keywords.

Romans 3:23-24 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift, through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. buff.ly/2K6SEHj t.co/T1C8fASri…

@AndrewS76825037 @AleMartnezR1 Illustration if illustration were needed of 1 Corinthians 1:18

@AleMartnezR1 I find it amusing that people think God’s impact on the world and mankind is dependent upon whether they believe in Him or not.

@PilgrimIntoWord @ItalianApologia I’ve just realised I have a favourite Gustav Dore coming up in a few days… you’ll have to wait to see which one 😄

@PilgrimIntoWord @ItalianApologia It’s paintings like this that have me longing to see them in real life. You only experience a fraction of the magnificence when seeing them online.

@ItalianApologia I’ve only ever seen this in black and white… I assumed it was an engraving. Is this the original? It’s beautiful.

@virginia_garret @MikeBloomberg Congrats Virginia! Time to put your feet up.

Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind. buff.ly/2HoGLKO t.co/Mlm61xYxw…

@Texasborn72 @IrisHofle John responded to Mary’s voice whilst still in his mother’s womb Luke 1:41.

The Lord ‘formed you from the womb’ Isaiah 44:24.

The written word of God recognises sentience and personhood from conception not ‘first breath’.

@JesseDornfeld @iamDavidsongs @AccordanceBible I use @OliveTreeBible which I really like but do like the ‘proper’ Bibles I have. A nice NIV, an ESV and a NKJV. The NIV is nicest. It was my first. I’d love a properly leather bound ESV but I need to see and feel it first so am hanging on for the right one… 😃

@AndrewS76825037 @JesseDornfeld Thank you! This looks thorough! I’ll be interested to see how this challenges my current view.
