My wife and I just came back from viewing 'Son of God'. We don't see the problem with the film. We have seen most of the films about Jesus. They all leave somethings out.

Furthermore, the gospels were written years after the event of Jesus's life and crusifiction. And, there are 3 years' of living that are only parley accounted for in those books.

I agree. It was the best and most happy depiction of Jesus I have ever seen. And I do believe he was a very joyful man!

I saw the movie on February 28 in a theatre packed with young people who saw 30 minutes of lewd trashy coming attractions. Satan must have been pleased. A real outcome of the movie.

My post on the 28th:

“After having to watch 30 minutes of trash in previews of coming attractions (those contained more damaging images than any so called violence in this movie), I saw “Son of God” on Friday and it was definitely lacking in reaching the masses with the salvation message (the real reason for Christ coming to earth). I agree that the depiction of the Lazarus scene was weak at best. Scriptures were left unfinished that would have given the viewing audience how to be saved. As much as most Christians wanted this to be THE MOVIE THAT WOULD CATCH THE WORLD BY STORM OF JESUS DYING TO SAVE US FROM OURSELVES (OUR SINS) this movie falls short. There have been other low budget films that have done far better. This is a Hollywood and unfortunately Christian networks’ hype.

No unsaved person except those under conviction can walk away from the film with how to be saved from eternal damnation. It just isn’t there. I hope if anyone took a friend, afterwards there was much discussion and filling in the blanks of the obvious missing dialogue of the movie.”

Later post:

To leave out Jesus and His victory over temptation by satan after 40 days of hunger and leave out the real reason for the Cross was irresponsible or perhaps was it politically expedient? . . .The Movie Son of God rather than THE Son of God . .. leaves the impression there is more than one way to God in Heaven rather than by the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

The Bible was written by the Word. Jesus is the Word. Holy Spirit gave the words to the writers of the Gospels.

John 1:1

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

.
The 3 years are myth. Yeshua’s ministry was exactly 70 weeks long, from his mikva by John the Baptist, to Pentecost as recorded in Acts.
