Ok, for those of you who have never heard of this movie, this is a movie about an ordinary man who complains way too much about his life and meets God face to face and is given all His powers.

What do y'all think about this movie? I think it is funny, but I also think it teaches us a good lesson.

Never complain!!!

We are studying about Moses in Sunday School right now. I thought the parting of the Red Soup was funny :blink:

When I first saw this movie, I did not like it. But now I think it is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen.

I have not seen the movie.  My first instinct was "how blasphemous"  But, like I said, I've never seen it. So I don't know.

You need to watch it! It has Jim Carrey and Jennifer Aniston in it.

It IS blasphemy! Jim Carrey is blaphemous. And Jennifer Aniston is most definitely not a good CHRISTIAN role model.

Any portrayal of God other than who He IS is by definition blasphemy.

It is terrible.

There is this scene where Jim gives Jennifer a sexual experience without touching her and it is downright terrible.

A co-worker who is a Christian said it was ok to see, so I did watch it.

I seem to have a problem with watching stuff I shouldn't at times. I usually only watch sports and nature shows (and the ultra cool mega structures).

I guess when I start to watch a movie I can't stop watching it.

Anyways, I now wish I hadn't seen it and went with my gut on this one.

Monty Python's The Holy Grail is not the most uplifting movie either, but I still bust a gut laughing when I do watch it. Bruce Almighty is not on my to see list. Watching paint dry is.

I saw that movie and I thought it was a funny movie! To me, movies are just that, movies to entertain us or me in this case. I take most stuff with a grain of salt. It wasn't a documentary telling us that this movie was real. :blink:

I have to wonder what a Holy and Awesome God who is so worthy of honor and praise, thinks.

It makes me very sad.

:blink:

In His Love,

I didn't watch this movie because of the previews. Alot of movies today are inspired by the enemy...and I think this was one of them.

As Christians we have to be careful of what we watch and listen to. I think if one of us had the experience that Moses had on the mount with God...and see the awesomeness of HIM then we would probably shun ourselves from some of the movies we now watch.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
