I am talking about the Bible. Surely that has nothing to do with smoking. Either you did not read the article or you are a part of the liberal and ecumenical movement of Christianity that does not have a problem with Mormonism, and or the agenda that is being pushed in schools, movies, library readings, etcetera.
I’m talking about the movie.
You must be some kind of Trumpist who confuses movies with God.

Mormons are not considered Christians on this forum. There is a reason for that. Why would you watch a show tainted by Mormonism? Would you fellowship with Mormons and call them your brothers?
Different zip codes have different rules but this has nothing to do with the movie.

Its still a show!
Right, and you wouldn’t get upset if they depicted your grandma or loved one on a TV series in a way that is totally false and sinful.
It’s still a show! No harm, right? Yeah, well, unless you don’t care about your family in how they are portrayed.

Let me just cut to the chase here. What about cartoon shows that depict sex. It’s just fantasy. No actors are actually having sex. Yet, the sin of immoral sex is being promoted and can lead people into lust.
Yeah, but somebody can cry, “It still a show!“

Right, okay. *eyes rolling*

You know I have talked with other Christians on this forum who believe sex filled videos is not a sin.
Yet, most Christians know they are self deceived. But when it comes to their favorite TV shows or movies that promotes other sins?
Yeah, all bets are off right? The hypocrisy.

When I was born again spiritually it took time to put the things of this world out of my life.
Perhaps one day this will be the same for you. It is my hope for you anyways.
Thank you.
I also hope that one day, you, will discern between a movie, actors, ice cream, the internet and The Almighty God.

Okay. Do you believe a Christian can preach Mormonism and still be okay with God?
Yes, or no. The creator of the Chosen (Dallas Jenkins) says Mormons are his brothers and sisters in Christ.
The show is owned primarily by Mormons.
They filmed in a location that only Mormons are allowed to go to.
The actors basically said using other words that if any one who is bigoted enough to believe that sex is between a man and woman only within marriage alone is no fan of their show. So even the actors do not know Christian basics on sexual immorality. Have they never read the story of Sodom and Gomorrah before? They are deceived, and they are promoting deception.

Okay. So you don’t think sin can be promoted in fictional movie or TV series?
What about cartoon videos that depict sex? No actual actors are having sex and yet it is fantasy.
It’s just a show, right? One can say to their kids it’s not real and so the sin is okay.
So take this sin, and replace it for other sins like the sin of the promotion of the false teaching of Mormonism.

I LOVE this movie. It’s awesome.
I am sure people love lots of sinful movies. It does not make it right.
The Chosen is a sinful TV show that insults the real Lord Jesus Christ.
But one has to care about the truth of the Bible to truly get what I am talking about.
One can just say, “I love to lie.” And yet the Bible condemns such an action.
Only until a person gives up their sin will they be able to see their own error.

This whole state of existence is sinful that’s why we’re separated from God dude.
The internet you’re using right now is sinful.
So yeah, one day you may realize that, or maybe not.

Thank God you’re not god right? Because even God gave us free will to enjoy chocolate ice cream while you want everyone to like vanilla.

I LOVE this movie. It’s awesome.
Also, Jesus is not the Law. Jesus kept the Law. You cannot be something that you keep.
This is false Mormon theology being pushed in the Chosen madness.
The book of Mormon teaches this and not the Bible.

I hope you find some peace someday knowing that almost half a billion people love this movie.

Obviously the Christians who have seen the show and like it, haven't seen any of the things you're describing. You should realize that other Christians know and love Jesus too, the Jesus of the Bible, and would be offended if He was being portrayed wrongly.

Well..............Jesis IS Lord Over the Law. He's also the Fullfillment and End of the Law. And being that the the Law was articulated by Moses via reference to God, then in some sublime way, God is the Standard by which the Mosaic Law has existed.

So, I think we can let this little bit of hollywood-ized iteration pass. It's not that big of a deal.

Can you point out anything else objectionable in the 38 episodes that have aired?

While this world is sinful, God’s people are not to be sinful.

Ephesians 4:26 (KJV)
”Be ye angry, and sin not:…“

1 Peter 1:15-16 (NKJV)
15 “but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct,
16 because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy.”

2 Corinthians 7:1 (KJV)
”…let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.”

Hebrews 12:14 (KJV)
”Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:”

You all promoting this can keep your false Jesus, we cannot stop you, only try to warn you.

Seems the Catholics are having an issue also with the false Jesus and its creator Dallas Jenkins and what he projects.\:


No one here is ADDING this show, or any other hollywood movie or television series about Jesus or early Christians, to the New Testament.

Maybe stop talking at our fellow Christians as IF they are adding to it? It's disrespectful to imply that they are.

But I understand: some here want everyone else to know, in no uncertain terms, that their own denomination is 'The Standard' by which all people around the world should engage and understand both Jesus and the Bible.

Really? Your defending a saying found in the Book of Mormon?
Anyway, no. The laws found in the book of Moses did not apply to God but to the Israelites.
For example: God says not to murder (take life of their own say so). Yet, this is not the case with God. God can take life as He pleases.
Man can steal things, but God owns everything and so God cannot technically steal.
To repent is a commandment (Acts 17:30). Yet, God cannot repent in the same way man can.
So no. God is not the Law. Mormonism is false, and stupid.
Stop watching a Mormon show.
Mormons believe Jesus is a created being.
This is heretical.

The problem is that there are many who say they understand the Bible better because of the Chosen.


Here is a person who teaches with the Chosen.


This website says you can reach the world with the authentic Jesus with the Chosen TV series.
