No movie can possibly convey the Gospel message accurately. God meant it to be read from His book and filtered through His Spirit by His children......else He would have made a movie. God communicates with us through His Word and His Spirit in ways that cannot be duplicated in a movie. However, movies like this can be a funnel to lead people to Jesus, as long as they read the book and obediently follow afterward.
I very likely will not see it, as I am not a consumer of Hollywood’s products. From what I’ve read, I wouldn’t call it preaching “another Jesus” as much as presenting a watered-down Jesus that may help bring people to Him - sort of like the “buddy-Jesus” we teach to children. I don’t sense satan’s hand behind this, despite the sketchy background of Ms. Downey and her husband - it sounds to me like a spiritually immature attempt to portray the real Jesus, and as such has its place as a gateway to the truly real Jesus.
Your first paragraph, well said Brother. Well said. I fully agree. THE BOOK tells us better than sloughing in a chair and watching it mouthing down popcorn and nachos.
