Ok, what's goin' on? The History Channel (known for blasphemy and illuminati affiliation) brings us a 10hr miniseries of The Bible on 3/3/13

Isn't believing in both Illuminati and Christianity a contradiction as they created all religions (manmade)?

^ THIS ^

That's why I watch H2 (History Channel 2).

Today they are doing shows about how earth was created and then some of the "Decoded" with Brad Meltzer (not really good IMO, but they are "history").

Check your listings for H2. Here in MASS, regular history is channel 71 and H2 is channel 242

bump

Tonight's the night Guys and Gals!

yep. everyone put on your discernment hats and get back to the thread with your thoughts.

i pray this thing is legit.

Me too!! Yes discernment advisory!!!

I"ll be watching too!

Yeay!!!! :)

I haven't decided whether to watch or just take those two hours and read it for myself. (Though I admit I'm curious.)

i agree,churches are so full of hypocrites,i feel like im better off not going

Our whole family is watching. I'm really looking forward to it. It is supposed to be accurate. Could be just what people need to see.

i'll be putting my cynic hat in the closet (for now).

hoping to learn some things from the show.

I will not be watching it. From what little previews I viewed, it clashed with my spirit.

Why I am not watching History Channel's "The Bible"

First, before watching, reading, attending, or in any way absorbing anything related to the bible, it is wise to look into the background of the people who prepared the material. In our day we have the internet to look into the doctrines of the people bringing us their message.

Even in the first generation church, they have heard things about certain men who bring false doctrines and evil words. (Acts 9:13, Acts 15:24). So because we have the opportunity to be Bereans ahead of time, we are.

The people putting together this production adhere to false doctrines and do not know the truth. As Erin Benziger wrote on her blog,

"Not only, then, were seeker-driven and Word Faith pastors such as Warren, Osteen and Jakes consulted, but others of questionable convictions like Erwin McManus, Craig Groeschel, Gabe Lyons, Samuel Rodriguez and others. Time and space prevent from examining here each of these names in depth.

Roma Downey, wife of producer Mark Burnett, plays Mary in the mini-series, and was best known as the kind hearted angel on the long-running television program "Touched by an Angel." However, Downey's spiritual journey has taken a turn toward darkness. She openly embraces New Age and Mysticism.

Well, as I suspected, I was enormously disappointed. They breezed through it so fast, like the express drive-thru version, cutting out huge chunks of the epic. Some chunks important, some not so important to get the story across.

If you have never experienced the bible you probably would be lost and confused and have no idea what was going on by watching this series.

however, there were a few spots that i found interesting. particularly the part where the three angels visit Abraham to tell him that Sarai would be having a child. When the three angels come, they never reveal the face of one of them. Then later, when Abraham is "speaking to the Lord" it is one of the three angels and looks much like Jesus. (this is very accurate to scripture, and i am surprised they put it in the series)

anyway, the visuals were nice, the acting was adequate, but they rush thru it so fast that it makes it a wasted effort, in my opinion.

I taped it, planned on watching it tonight. The Amish Mafia special was on last night and I couldn't miss that......LMAO!

I taped it as well, Lisa, but I imagine after watching I will be agreeing with Salt. Disconnected stories miss the overall story of Scripture, and without that the individual stories don't make a lot of sense.

I"m still going to check it out.

Anybody watch last night?

I missed it, and was curious to get any opinions on the premiere episode.

They know people will watch, especially in the south.

it is definitely worth the viewing.
i am curious what threads they will run thru the series. i appreciated that they portrayed the Lord (of the OT) as appearing as Jesus. i am more than a little excited to see if they continue this thread throughout.

amish mafia, now that's funny

I watched it last night and was highly disappointed. It is a slick production that plays out like an MTV music video with mere flashes of scenes and tiny blips of factual information, leaving major gaps of information. It was actually awful, although I was really looking forward to it beforehand. This series is for people with 3 second attention spans. the Moses story last night was much better told in The Ten Commandments with Charlton Heston and Yul Brenner.

I didn't watch it. It just didn't feel right to me, so I went to IMDB to check out parties involved and that sealed the deal for me - not watching it.

Lightworkers (Producers)
Osteen (illuminati preacher)
History Channel - owned by Hearst/Disney/ABC et al etc.

I just feel that something is wrong.

I must spend more time praying as things are getting really weird.

I want to build on your thought.

How we tell the story to ourselves and others is as important as hearing the facts behind the story. The MTV video analogy is appropriate. I was thinking of a lot of the YouTube stuff that gets posted at GLP as "fact." The YouTube setting is needed to dramatize and emotionalize an otherwise weak story line.

Why we tell the story is even more important.

true, very very true

Thanks for sharing this. I was on board with it because I saw that they were being interviewed on EWTN, and figured it was 'safe' from a Catholic perspective. Started watching the recording last night, but with my young daughter who couldn't sleep and when we got to the part where Sarah was urging Abraham to produce a child with Hagar, I decided it was time to turn it off and pre-screen before showing it to the kids.

Sarah did urge Abraham to have a child with Hagar. That is scriptural

Good morning,

I am not an expert in scripture by any stretch of the imagination. I read and apply the Bible to the best of my ability, I pray to the Lord, I meditate to listen and receive my direction from the Lord. I consult and study with people and read certain posters here and on other sites who resonate with me with the Word of the Lord.

I was brought into this world by loved ones who followed faithfully in their understanding of Lord Jesus Christ, as dysfunctional as it was, and is, LOL. Not pretty at times, as with so many here on earth. But what it did do was lay the foundation for me to continue to seek in my own choice and understanding, which I choose and continue to do, as difficult as it has been to read and interpret Scripture, I adore and Love Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and I grow leaps and bounds everyday.

I found myself bracing with my skeptical eye as the show entered the air waves. As it proceeded I was pleasantly surprised as Unshakeable Faith in God was the premise.

I missed seeing the dove return to the Ark with the olive branch personally to signify land after the flood! I love animals and the Ark was instrumental in my reading Scripture. That's just me.

It was a crash course, time is short, so why not a crash course.

They truly highlighted Have Faith in God no matter what, Abraham declared this endlessly. Mosses declared the same Unshakable Faith and direction, through out the 2 hrs.

Lot and his wife Edith had difficulty with Faith and believing in the directions dictated to Lots Uncle by God. In addition Sodom and Gomorrah was very important and monumental point in history and well portrayed, as crash course as it was in the 2hr segment. Edith swayed Lot throughout, but he did not question finally, at Sodom, but Edith did, bummer for her but what a message for us! I mean, I like salt but...

Have Faith and believe and follow directions all in a crash course of Biblical Scripture in 2 hrs. Is this the only way to portray the Bible, no, did they give good premise, yes, would I have included different events from that timeline, yes and no.

If someone saw The Bible last night for the very first time it was enough information to spark historical and Spiritual Salvation interest for them to do their own research. Which is always advised.

So... it was a Mustard seed on steroids. But a mustard seed none the less!! Well we'll wait and see what the other segments trigger.

I personally believe the fundamental idea of God is in every man, woman and child, this would have been enough to activate the DNA, to explore the facts and choose in our free will.

God Bless you all!
