[QUOTE="Bible Highlighter, post: 73672852, member: 356113"] [IMG]https://www.christianforums.com/media/heavens-war-dvd.61257/full?d=1550073593[/IMG] I got the DVD for Heaven's War to add it to my Christian DVD collection. In time, I will probably give it away to someone I know, and I will probably end up buying the movie a couple of times. For I really love movies that are professionally done and are entertaining that point us to Jesus Christ. We need more movies like this that share the love of Jesus Christ. The movie is biblically sound (With one small minor thing that is easy to explain or overlook, see my "Side Note" write up below).

The movie was originally set to release in 2013. It went through the movies title names of: "[I][U]Out of Darkness[/U][/I]" and "[I][U]Beyond the Darkness[/U][/I]" to it's final name: "[I][U]Heaven's War[/U][/I]." (Which is a much better name).

I initially bought the film outright online at Prime so as to watch the film later with my wife. Anyways, thank you for reading, and may the Lord's goodness be upon you today. Sincerely, ~ Jason. [U]Side Note[/U]: The one small biblical thing they get wrong (Which is minor and understandable because most churches believe this) is that the angel character named "Gabriel" suggests that those in hell will experience "eternal torment." I no longer believe in Eternal Conscious Torment (ECT) based on Scripture and the light of God's goodness. I believe the Bible teaches Dualistic Conditional Immortality; This is the biblical belief that hell is a real place of torment that exists, but after the Judgment, the wicked (including the devil and his minions) will be cast into the Lake of Fire and they will eventually be destroyed after they are punished fairly for the sins they committed. This did not bother me that the film briefly suggests the view of Eternal Torment because Revelation 20:10 sounds like eternal torment when you read it at first glance.
