A scene where Matthew offers corrections to the sermon on the mount, Jesus goes away to think about it, then comes back and tells Matthew he is right and changes the sermon? Who would follow a so called Messiah like that?
The chosen is seeker friendly. It’s okay to deceive people and give them a false view of the Lord, as long as it draws them in, right? We can always tell them the truth later. And having said all of this, and I do believe what I am saying is true. During the 1970s holy Spirit revival in this country I was a very young woman and I saw godspell and was touched. The Lord can use anything, but that does not mean that anything should be advocated. The real Jesus is enough. Why do they feel that they have to manufacture a false picture of him to draw people in? Is not the authentic Lord presenting in scripture good enough, or do we need to make him fallible as we are in order to relate to him? People do not come to Jesus because they need to identify with someone who is as flawed as they are. Quite the opposite. Okay, I’m done! And I really do not mean to offend anyone, but I am very indignant on the Lord’s behalf.
