You must be debating yourself. I did not say anyone was not a part of the church body. I did get that he was not a ministry and a Christian production and that is OK with me. I can voice how I feel also. You promote the show and please don't stone me for standing up for what I believe. PEACE
I am not stoning you .:oops:. You misrepresented what Dallas said by making claims that were false.
The views you promote are full of insinuations as if they are not part of the body of Christ.
You are of course free to assume that, and stick to your guns about it as if they are all evil.


Well yes, he did say they are not the church? All true believers are the Church, not the buildings. And he said that the whole crew is family, then there you go.

Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever? What agreement is there between the temple of God and idols? For we are the temple of the living God. As God has said: "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people." Therefore, "Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you." ~ 2 Corinthians 6:14-17

So we now know it is not a Christian show that is wanting to promote the teaching of Jesus Christ. But it is just like any other show and what will be will be.

It does seem to be an uplifting clean show. So if you watch it please know the Bible and the truths from it and know what parts are true and what are not.

And no wonder, for even Satan, disguises himself as an angel of light. So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as servants of righteousness. Their end will correspond to their deeds. ~ 2 Corinthians 11:14-15

So please don't be deceived by something that actually tells you it is not completely from the word of God the bible which is the only truth. People say well this might be the only introduction people get to Jesus, I doubt it, but if so, if secular worldly propaganda is mixed in it, it is not going to point them to the real true Son of God who is the only one that can save them.

He did say they are a family. He did say we are not a church. He did say they are not a ministry. He did say they are not a Christian production. He did say they don't have a corporate prayer. He flat out says they are not any of the above and people that say it don't make it true.

So I believe him. And no I did not lie, that is what he said and anyone that can hear can go listen to it and hear for themself.

Still, he made such a good point to place himself far from standing up for Jesus Christ and the truth. I can choose to give my opinion that people should be careful what comes from a worldly show about Jesus Christ, they are many out there and most are deceiving people.

No true believer in Jesus Christ will be silenced because of those who want their own truth and not the real truth who is Jesus Christ.

Most of the apostles were martyred because they would not be silenced. If you want to promote the show, go for it no one is trying to stop you.
Fun how people are so eager to correct and then accuse of sin from such a high pedestal of perfection. I am about done with this place.

It seems The Chosen aggravates those who wish to advocate that Christianity amputate anything slightly alternate.
Preferring yes! to bifurcate with their opinions obstinate which they carefully calibrate to cursorily denigrate.
Well, yes for sure Christianity advocates that anything not in the truth of the Bible be amputated if it is slightly alternate. It is either true or not. The is only one way.

The Bible says: one God, one divine revelation, one Lord, one Savior, one gospel, one means of escaping hell. That’s what the Bible claims, and it is essentially that that is its greatest offense. And because it is such an offense, people cave in, and rather than be faithful to that gospel

That is right, that is different than we're like a family.
And different than saying we are a family.

After working together for close to forty years, one of my coworkers said she and I were like an old married couple.

Much the same thing. She was not saying we are an old married couple.

So now you're smarter than the bother of Jesus? Not sure what to do with that. Not sure it even matters.
It doesn't matter, but, James, saw many things Jesus did and still could not believe. True, eventually, he does, but for having first hand insight he didn't buy it until AFTER Jesus Resurrected. So in Theory, he had Less Faith, than Thomas.

I'll add, but when he did finally Believe, we see the best of him!

Wow, this "Christian message board is like trying to proclaim the good news on a Latter Day Saints - Mormon message board. Is this a protestant Christian message board?

I think you should petition to have a book of your own added to the Bible.

You don't have to agree. Just pointing out the facts. Most of the world doesn't agree and neither did they agree with Jesus Christ so they just silenced Him. (Killed Him because they did not want to know the truth.) Still, the truth is Jesus Christ and He is the only truth and we will all answer to Him.
Funny, we both report the facts, but mine is basically word for word with Jenkins, and your's is with your own twist. And that is the portion you want to compare to Jesus Christ?

Not sure, just make sure you are explicit and extremely careful how you word things cause obviously you will be raked over the coals if you not absolutely clear in your post in your intent and told you are bearing false witness.

Someone using the "we are family" as an excuse to slam him when that is not what he said? Simply wrong,
and tries to give the impression that Dallas wishes to include the reprobate and/or unsaved in his Godly
family when I do not believe that is what he meant at all... but now you question me holding to my opinion
when just a few short minutes ago you were saying, please don't stone me for standing up for what I believe. LOL

We are like a family is more what he said when you subtract the repetition and make allowances for poor sentence structure.

I think Dallas knows very well that non-believers are not part of the family of God.

Your implication seemed to be that is what he meant... they are family of God.

Which is why you went into all that about being yoked and wickedness and darkness.
