I noticed a couple of books in our church bookstore about movies:  How Movies Helped Save My Soul—Finding Spiritual Fingerprints in Culturally Significan Films by Tony Campolo, and HP The Hollywood Project—A Look into the Minds of the Makers of Spiritually Relevant Films by Alex Field.  Our church services occasionally use movie clips to get attention and make a point.  Izzy

jt: I saw it but don't remember the details, for some reason they didn't stick with me but I

vaguely remember being disappointed that there was no repentance in the Sean Penn character

or am I remembering something unrelated?

Did you watch this one? I thought the message of grace was adequately conveyed through sister Prejean.

Hold on a minute, mate! Did I detect a literary reference in the Judster? Granted it's not fiction but, we all know of that 'slippery slope' thingy.

jt: After the fall they were no longer reflecting God's image.

 

Please give me the biblical address for this statement (Genesis 9:6). -- slade

 

jt: They were made in God's image [elohim] and given dominion [as recorded

in Genesis 1:26]; can we agree that God is life?

 

God's commandment to Adam [Genesis 2:17] was that in the day Adam

ate from a certain tree 'he would surely die'.

 

The adversary came along with his truth telling the woman [Genesis 3:4]

'you shall not surely die'

 

Whose word did they believe and obey?  Did A&E die like God said they would or

didn't he really mean what He said? 

 

So Adam is now a 'dead man walking' do you believe that in spiritual death Adam

still retained the image of God who is Life?

 

We see in Genesis 5:3 that Adam in his fallen state fathered a son after his own

image and in his [Adam's] likeness and called his name Seth.
