Proverbs 13:10...pride is the source of contention, it seems.

How does this relate?
IF you use ,support , in any way and also claim your Christianity that is no different then the ugly pride flag being at the work place of another. It has to do with what we are willing to see in our selves and what and how we project to others. I will be surprised if you get this.

Is it Pride, or the fact, I've debated at least 20 MINDS on these Forums, and I would know who caused me most issue in our back n forths?

I only speak by the experience I have here.

What surprises me is the false equivalency.......those companies are not making a show about the "authentic Jesus" a show pretending to honor Jesus.

This is duplicity on the part of the show, none of those companies pretend to be in support of the "authentic Jesus."

Nice try trying to blame me for something I am not guilty of, wow.

A person can boycott those companies but it would be for a different reason.

And I am not trying to project anything about myself, I am trying to wake people up and stop being so naive.

I'm more inclined to believe the former than the latter.

NO, I am not saying Jesus and Satan are brothers. Where in the world did you get that from? (And he is David.)

Know the Bible
Another one who cannot comprehend English.

Look, at what you quoted:
The_Watchers_2017 said:
By his post, isn't it saying he thinks I believe Jesus and Satan are brothers?

Notice something here, very key, to this point you have made?

The portion of my post : he thinks I believe

I am talking about you accusing ME, I did not accuse YOU anywhere in this post. But still, You answer like I did.

Are you Projecting or adding what you think I am saying here?

Because what you post and I said will never align up.

So, one of us, is LYING here!

Completely different situations those shops are not promoting Christ Jesus.
Amazing how you excuse the flying of the pride flag which did not need to be shown in the video and then blame other Christians for being just as guilty.
"Christians are the problem, those hypocrites"..... sounds just like the left to me.

an anyone critical of the Chosen series specifically point to anywhere in the video series itself how it presents Jesus in any other way than Biblical Christianity?
I have watched every episode of all 3 seasons.

I found the 1st 2 seasons to be excellent and they even moved me at times. Especially the episode about Simon the Zealot, and his brother that Jesus healed at the Bethesda Pool.

The 3rd season was just not that good. It had moments, but waaay too much nonessential interaction between the characters, that have virtually nothing to do with the Gospel. I understand there has to be some of that, but there was just too much.

Having said that, there are at least TWO totally unbiblical scenes in the show that I've seen so far.


The first is probably less of an offense than the second.

Essentially Mary Magdalene backslides, and Jesus forgives her. Which is fine. But He adds the line, "Did you think you'd never sin again"? Now coming from anybody else, I'd have less of a problem with it.
Although I believe in essence that the statement is true, it runs completely counter to Jesus' proclamation to "GO AND SIN NO MORE".

The second is Jesus refusing to heal "Little James" of his bad leg and limp. This is bad no matter how you slice it. Jesus NEVER refused to heal anyone who came to Him, and I think sends a very bad message to those who aren't very Biblically literate.


P.S. One of things that will make or break the show will be with how they handle Judas. Theyv'e pretty much tiptoed around him so far.

but you do promote Christ. I am guessing you support some or one of the business listed . Seems you will not see in yourself what youi project.

I did not excuse anything If i was in control it would not be there . You are excusing supporting 'pride supporting business because 'that is different in your eyes'.

I never stated I support a pride supporting business, I stated they are two different situations. If you cannot see the difference well not much I can do about it.

What post did i say you stated you supported pride supporting business? You are twisting my words. I will not trust you to be honest. Your posts will be read with doubt in mind.

I never stated you stated. I was making a statement of fact that I have stated I support a pride supporting business.
However, support comes in many forms, but no point going there.
I think there is a difference you do not. Problem solved.

Okay, I am done with you as well.

Much like @Magenta, it is the same modus operandi, I cannot handle having my show criticized let me find something I regard as a false statement become the accuser and make it about how others bear false witness.
Such a wonderful tactic employed over and over again.
My show? My goodness. You reek of being desperate to condemn. Try being honest for a change. It'll do
you good and you will get further with that tactic as opposed to contradicting yourself all over the place.


Oh, yes, the video you posted is dishonest, too! Purposefully
edited to delete pertinent information. Click bait is your purview.

The company who builds cars, and the places where I shop don't claim to be ministers of the gospel. So The Chosen is left with one of two options: either they're a ministry that represents the gospel of Jesus, or they're a business who is selling Jesus for profit.
Interesting, this was my point as well and you had already made the same point too. :unsure::)
Agreed!
