Green is green
Blue is blue
Still, you see no difference between the HOLY & the PROFANE
Which is why you see no doctrine of separation
If you want to watch movies inspired by OCCULTISTS
go for it.
I care not to indulge.
"Saul, by casting an amorous eye upon Agag, lost his crown and kingdom; Samson by dallying with his Delilah, lost his strength, sight, light, liberty and life. But what are these losses to thy loss of spiritual strength, to thy loss of communion with God, to thy loss of the Spirit of light, liberty, and glory; to thy loss of joy unspeakable, and peace that passeth understanding?" Thomas Brooks

Yes, I read that Judy, right after I read Blaine explain it first in
better detail. Every calendar student knows that Jews insert an
intercalary month to keep the seasons from migrating too far, but that
has absolutely NOTHING to do with a full moon on Passover. The Jews
determine the beginning of the month by visual observation, and that
along with knowledge of how many days it takes for the moon to become
full is all you need to know to be sure that Passover has a full moon.
I tire of arguing about the mundane and clearly understood things. It
is like arguing that green is green and not blue. I don't know why you
can't grasp the concept Judy, but I assure you that you are the one who
is complicating things here. The rest of us men here seem to understand
it just fine, even though one is Mormon and one is not! :-)
As for the movie, well.... it is just a movie. It is not going to save
the world, nor is it going to damn people to hell. It presents a part
of the gospel message and life of Jesus in a powerful way. I hope we
don't sit around and criticize every little omission from a preacher's
sermon, and in like fashion, we should not be straining about all the
problems with this movie. It is Mel Gibson's sermon about Christ, and I
for one testify that it is a pretty good sermon. I don't care if he is
Roman Catholic or if he hired porn stars or if he conferred with witch
doctors. I have seen the final product and I found it to be the best
movie about Jesus that I had ever seen. I hope he does more of them. I
would love to see him do a remake of the Ten Commandments movie that
Charlton Heston starred in. That was very good too, but here we are
fifty years later and just look at how few movies preach Christ. Could
it be that those who criticize the movies hinder men like Gibson from
fronting the millions of dollars needed to do them? I hope you
reconsider your attitude toward the film.
Peace be with you.
