Ez 22:26 Her priests have violated my law, and have profaned mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they shewed difference between the unclean and the clean, and have hid their eyes from my sabbaths, and I am profaned among them.   There are some thinking that revival is going to brake out. God would not use a profane person like Joe Smith nor Mel. Nor would he use anything tainted with a little bit of falsehood. God is HOLY HOLY HOLY. God does not eat the meat & spit out the bones. What scripture teaches that? A Little leaven leavens the whole lump!  So then faith cometh by seeing and seeing by the Celluloid?

If all this is going on at a sub level does that mean the viewers are participating in the 14 stations? The story movie draws from the mystic visionary German Nun Emmerich. The script was developed by a Roman catholic priest. Sounds too religious for me.  Why do I need celluloid when I have the Holy Scriptures that will never lead me astray? ========================================================================== Hey Kevin: Nothing wrong with playing it safe.  You can't go wrong if you stick strictly to the scriptures, and the scriptures are really all that we need.  By sticking strictly to God's Holy word, you may limit yourself somewhat, but everything you need to know is there in that one book.  At one time, I would have fully supported your position.  There was a time when I would listen to a preacher, or read a book, or see an earlier movie abour the Christ, and at the first inconsistancy, I would mentally turn off the preacher, or put down the book, or walk out of the movie.     One evening when I was teaching a Bible class at the local prison, we got to discussing exactly that, and I got some of the best advice from one of the inmates that I ever got.  He said, "Just eat the meat, and spit out the bones".  That may not be the best advice for a new Christian who is not sure what to believe, but for a mature Christian who is certain of what he or she believes, it is excellent advice.   If you are strong enough to shrug off the inconsistancies and move forward, you will often find a blessing.  Sometimes you have to pick out more bones than others, but there is often a tasty morsel waiting when you are done.   You are a mature Christian.  No one is going to turn you into a Catholic.   Think about that.
