“In the Bible, evil is shown and condemned immediately and directly - and the alternative by way of God’s plan - the Messiah of Israel is shown as the only way. If the shows did it that way, then that would be similar to the Bible. But, they don’t and they just show the evil and no way out - and they certainly don’t show God’s way as the alternative, i.e., the Messiah of Israel.”

““Good art” can be bad (and should be rejected) or it can be positive and show the correct way.”

Well, if that’s your position, we’re just going to have to disagree. Plenty of good art just wouldn’t work if you tried to shoehorn a gospel message into it, and it would be a very boring place to live in if the only art we accept is of the sacred variety.

And just how boring of a place is it going to be, when the Messiah of Israel sets up his ruling government over all the nations of the world and institutes the righteousness of God’s Kingdom inside every country, city, town and neighborhood?

This will happen in the not too distant future, the way things are playing out right now - and we’ll see the Messiah of Israel ruling directly from Jerusalem and all the nations and peoples of the world knowing and acting according to the one way provided by the Messiah of Israel. Does that mean that we’ll all die of boredom at that point in time?

Is “this way” that we’re living now to be preferred over how we all will be living with the Messiah of Israel in control and enforcing God’s righteousness, here on this earth, and all our current governments under his control?
