The Chosen is a great work, it will never contradict the Bible. It makes the Bible come to life for many.
Dallas needs to make sure that no more videos come out with this yahoo wearing a small rainbow patch on his back.
It would be good if they could have workplace rules of no displays of anything like this. I DO NOT think that Dallas is somehow secretly promoting some homosexual agenda by doing this, but it needs to go.
The lawsuit seems to indicate that The Chosen team didn’t do enough legal homework when they started .
Guessing he was looking for an independent way to get this produced, they just didn’t think through what would happen if it got big. I will make sure to delete the Angel app from my phone since they have turned out to be snakes .

The Chosen being Protestant in origin does not, for example, reflect pious Catholic belief regarding Mary, the mother of our Lord.

She’s portrayed by an older-looking woman, careworn and not attractive.

By contrast, pious belief, influenced by uncorrupted knowledge of Mary’s Immaculate Conception, and the fact that no sin, not even the Original Sin of Adam and Eve, ever touched her, has Mary at this time at an enduring peak of the finest of human female beauty, and frankly looking no older than Jesus himself.

Well said Heartland. My family is looking forward to seeing the next seasons. I watch cautiously, and with a solid fluency in the Bible, both OT and NT (though it will never be enough! 😉) so I feel like I am able to provide discernment for the "less-studied" in our viewing crowd. I agree with factmart that working out the sermon on the mount with Matthew seemed silly and can only hope they went that route to build up the importance of the actual event. I was super disappointed they did not deliver the entire sermon in that episode.
As for the actors and their beliefs, I don't really care, as long as the writers eisegesis doesn't get out of hand. Then, truly, the series could be dangerous.
I always thought Jenkins seemed sincere when he spoke about the project and it looks like it's the Mormons pulling some shady financial greed action. I'm the naive one who is still shocked when other people who profess to be Christians act like everything but 😞

The Chosen is a fictional work. It has already contradicted the Bible in many ways that people can find by doing simple searches on the internet. The videos you watch of this fiction have just enough heresy in them to lead many astray. Keep watching at your own peril. It is best in the coming days to download the FREE Youversion application and open the Word of the Living God. You can spend 15-30 minutes of reading the scriptures versus watching fiction. The danger in the Chosen is all of the words that are “added” to the fictional mouth of the fictional Jesus create in people’s minds and hearts this version of the TV Jesus. People will come to “believe” in the teachings and sayings of TV-Jesus over the true Son of the Living God that are recorded in the Holy Bible.
