There is absolutely no excuse for not portraying Biblical characters exactly as in the Bible. The Downey/Burnett TV series on the Bible had so much fiction included that we turned it off by the second week.

Last night, we viewed the movie Jacob which my wife rented from Netflix. Not a bad movie but once again, they threw in silly scenes that were not in the Bible.

There is no excuse for doing that. One can produce a two hour length movie about significant Biblical characters without resorting to fictionalizing the character(s).

An angel of God becomes a Ninja-style warrior who goes on a stabbing spree in the ancient city of Sodom in "The Bible" TV miniseries. The stabbing spree is not mentioned in the actual biblical account. According to the Old Testament, angels merely struck the citizens of Sodom with blindness before God firebombed the entire city. The TV series did include those elements as well. The show, however, did not mention the rampant homosexuality in Sodom, or that the city’s men actually sought to have sex with the angels.

When that happened, I knew the series was bowing to the evil homosexual lobby. We are fighting a great wickedness in our time. Homosexuality is now the centerpiece of Satan's crowbar to rip Christians and their Constitutional rights apart. Christian teaching will be outlawed in the not so distant future, as any teaching that violates the "civil rights" of homosexuals by stating God's truth about their sin will be grounds for arrest, persecution, and imprisonment. Christians who are in the military are already being persecuted for their faith.
