Bale Calls Moses 'Schizophrenic,' 'Barbaric'
Truth Revolt ^ | 10.25.14 | Truth Revolt

Posted on 10/25/2014 10:50:07 PM PDT by This Just In

Christian Bale has some novel interpretations of Moses, whom he portrays in the upcoming "Exodus: God and Kings."

"I think the man was likely schizophrenic and was one of the most barbaric individuals that I ever read about in my life," Bale said.

Hard on the heels of Noah, which took great liberties with the biblical tale, Exodus is drawing criticism from Christian websites.

So meek, in fact, he kept telling God he wasn’t up to it. God sort of ‘lost it’ and impressed Aaron into service.

Our meek Moses, however, did kill a guard and was on the run at one time.

Moses had a tough life. All prophets of God do.

Just wiped this movie off mt “must see list”.

Maybe Bales should change his name. Probably doesn’t like Christ either.

How about Mohammad Bales?

"Smite the Shepherd and the sheep shall scatter".... I believe that the first striking of the rock represented Jesus death on the cross as Jesus is The Rock. Jesus died once for all and said it is finished. Striking the rock over and over was symbolic of crucifying Christ over and over, or at least by your actions trying to.

When someone hasn't come to the knowledge that Christ died once for their sins and His one death is forever sufficient for the work of our salvation they have not come into the Sabbath rest. They haven't spiritually come into the Promised Land. They do not have true peace. They are still striving to know the eternal salvation that comes through faith in Jesus Christ and His completed work of salvation.

Many people are constantly going up to be saved over and over. They think that they can lose and then gain and then lose their salvation over and over. Others think that they constantly need to partake in the actual blood and body of Christ being sacrificed in the "Mass" over and over. None of this is necessary. Christ died for us once and said "It is finished." Now all we can do is accept Jesus and what He, at one point in history, so wonderfully and sacrificially did for us. Now He is risen and sits at the right hand of His Father in heaven.

“I am halt of tongue” Moses

“Your brother Aaron will speak for you” God

From the “Burning Bush”

Ben Kingsly played Moses on a TV production of Moses some 18 years ago. His Moses stuttered and his character was very retiring and very beta male! I thought the whole production strived mightily for authenticity and they got a lot of things right!

The real Moses was 4 score of age and his brother Aaron was 83 when he led Israel out of Egypt.(and they didn’t even have a AARP card).
