I never said you did say anything about supporting evil, my point is even if God can use something for good, whatever it may be, it does not mean we can still support it.

Really?
I've been locked away and been great friends with some of the most foul beasts on planet earth, during my lifetime. I've been fortunate to lead several to the Lord. But the one thing that got most of their attention, beside what the Holy Spirit was doing to their hearts, was I said to them, "I pray God will Do Whatever it Takes, if that means you are bedridden for the rest of your life or stuck in Prison, or whatever it may be, that God get's a hold of you and shakes the Devil right out of ya. I believe in that Policy and Practice it all of the time.

When I rededicated my life back to God, my Southern Baptist family had their Rifles on hand. Said, now that you're Saved, for sure, BOY, maybe we should fix ya from turning back :sneaky:

Point is, those 2 Posts sounds harsh.
But, in all sincere honesty, they exemplify the love that exists for them to be Saved and for me to remain faithful to God.

You are saying, God does methods you don't agree with.
I agree with them.
My God, is only doing, what He knows, will bring some to Salvation, in terms, that don't work on anyone else.

My 2 Posts, are Methods that work, but many do not agree with!

This is the point, we should support the good that may result, but not the evil that was intended.

Not sure I can state it any clearer than that.

You are Clear, but, in the case of Pride Flag and Chosen, it's Believers, GOSSIPERS, BACK-Biters, Witness Character Assassin's, who are the Evil here. And it typically, how those kinds of people in the Church are, none of it is Godly, but their own Evil intentions.

So here, the Enemy, is not God, but our Idiot Brother's and Sister's in Christ!

If one good thing has come out of this, it's that now there's no doubt The Chosen, Inc. is a for-profit corporation, not a ministry at all. See video starting at 7:07.

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.

Agreed!

But, without naming, because it would make You, THEM...

If you were to quickly skim just through this Thread, only, can you pick out WHO would be the GOSSIPERS, BACK-Biters, Witness Character Assassin's, if They were in your Church?

You can FEEL their intention and spirit.


And the Second thought:

if they were in my Church, what do you think would happen?

You remind me, of the idealism, that James, brother of Jesus, would be.
I don't think James was right a lot, but he had passion about what he did believe.

If people want to watch it, that is their choice, if one has to justify and rationalize then something is off.

He said they were like a family. The cast and crew are independent contractors and their personal
views are not policed. Neither did he say, we are not the church. He was clarifying that they are not
a church. I am not a church and yet I am still a member of the Body of Christ, which is the church.

I did watch the video yesterday after it was posted, but watched part of it again now to get at these points.

Completely Disagree here!
It is a Show that DOES Promote Jesus and Biblical Viewpoints, but, it is ALSO a Business, in the United States of America, that must uphold all Employee Rights.

I would say they choose to uphold employee rights .:D

Seems a respectable position to take for/as an employer .:)

Even Jesus defended sinners against self-righteous religious types .(y)
