I'm a big movie lover and I mean big, there are only 2 places I feel closer to God than when I'm watching a good movie thats when I'm in church or behind my drum kit.

As a movie lover I've created this thread so that fellow christians can discuss movies that have touched them deeply.


Before we start I would like to lay down some ground rules:
1. If you are of the opinion that all secular movies are from the devil sent to trick us into straying from the narrow rocky path to salvation may I humbly request that you refrain from posting here. Its not really on topic and will do nothing to enhance the thread.

2. Please try to refrain from posting about movies that are just streight literal translations of bible stories to film. A large majority of these hold just as much meaning and poignance in the bible as they do as films and hence are topics of discussion for the bible study part of the forum. Obviously stuff like the depiction of Christ's suffering in The Passion are exeptions.

I'll be talking about the shawshank redemption and its powerful message about witnessing when I get time but at the moment its late where I live and I have more family coming tomorrow.
God Bless and happy posting!
 
When I first started reading I was like cool I had a list of movies to post. But then 2 things just turned me off a bit and left me undecided.

1. If you are of the opinion that all secular movies are from the devil sent to trick us into straying from the narrow rocky path to salvation may I humbly request that you refrain from posting here. Its not really on topic and will do nothing to enhance the thread.

Firstly I didnt understand why you would think, people would start a debate, when the topic is movies that touched them ( members know that debates are not allowed )there's no confusion for any negative remarks to appear.

2. Please try to refrain from posting about movies that are just streight literal translations of bible stories to film

Secondly, you asked us to share what touched us, but we are left without the freedom of choice.


Its a great thread started ...the rules that followed I didnt get.

There's one movie that touched me and that is " A walk to remember "

Why it touched it, it shows the story of a Christian girl who found love and never once had to change or conform to this world to find it. Instead the young man gave his life to God and got saved.

Hi Derrial,

It's good to meet a like-minded soul!

The movies speak to me very deeply, in a way I don't think a lot of people understand, especially those close to me.

Anyway, some of the movies that have really impacted me are:

1) Braveheart

It's a rare thing to find someone who so completely believes in their cause that they would willingly die for it. So many of us Christians talk a big talk about all that we believe but would we literally die for that doctrine we're so passionately defending?

One particular scene in Braveheart that touched me was when Wallace told Robert The Bruce that he (Wallace) would follow him if he would take up the mantle of leadership.

This, more than anything else exposed Wallace's heart and motives and clearly showed that he was more interested in serving than being served.

This is the unmistakable mark of a true leader, to serve others unconditionally without desire for reward, the very thing I've been struggling with in my own life and ministry for many years. Cultivating the heart of a true servant leader.

So, Braveheart spoke volumes to me. Freeeeedom!!!!!


2) Fifty First Dates (Adam Sandler/Drew Barrymore)

This man willingly chose to put himself in a marriage where he would literally HAVE TO win his wife's love all over again EVERY SINGLE DAY OF THEIR LIVES FOR AS LONG AS THEY LIVED!

The power of this concept is unsurpassed! This spoke to me so loudly because this is what we all (as husbands) are supposed to be doing anyway - Winning our wife's love anew every day.

Instead, we find it so easy to fall into a rut and take each other for granted. And don't let me get started with, "March of the Penguins" and what a father should be willing to sacrifice for his children.

Derrial, I could go on for days doing this, so let me make room for someone else to get a word in edgewise.

If no one else wants to post i'll make another contribution soon as I've got many more movie experiences to share.

Chaio! For Now!

P.S. I completely understand why you included the two laws and totally agree with you.

You don't come here laying down ground rules for anyone. Your rules are bent out of shape in the first place. You assumed things about others who haven't responded yet. Your second "rule" leaves people no freedom.

We're here to talk about Jesus. Everything else is lesser and will pass. I'm not fond of anyone coming here to 'lay down the rules'. I have movies that I love, and I discuss them with others without laying down some ground rules like you did.

So what if a movie is a literal translation of the Bible? How is that wrong to discuss according to your "ground rules"? Tell me, you have an issue with that? I adore that kind and those who put all that effort to glorify GOD.

So other movies are great too, but do they glorify GOD? I don't need no hidden messages, no secrecy, etc. My question to you is does it glorify GOD? If it doesn't glorify GOD, then what's it purposes?

1 Corinthians 6:20

20For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

1 Corinthians 10:31

31Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
 
Rizen1 and Chad I'm just trying to make sure this thread stays on topic rule one stops this becoming a debate (like you say is not allowed) and rule 2 is also there to keep people on topic. I have nothing against conversations about stories in the Bible, I'm all for it but its a convosation for another thread. I just want to try and keep this about movies, I'm not against the Bible but this thread is about Movies that have touched you not bible verses, that thread belongs in the bible studies area.

Oh and Chad, when you say "you assume things about others who haven't responded yet" I'm just covering the thread to stop it becoming a debate, it seems like I loose either way because if I dont lay down some ground rules the thread might become a debate and veer off topic, both of which are either against forum rules or ettiquette. Apparently If I do try to abide by server rules admins get angry with me, I guess some things are sent to test us.

kaddeesh thaks for the contribution and your kind words, both of those movies are really good (braveheart especially) and you wouldn't traditionally cite them for spiritual illumination. Thats the thing I love about movies, they're personal and can touch us in totally different ways.

Anywho, as far as movies glorifying god goes I think its time for me to talk about my favorite movie: The Shawshank Redemption. Based on a short story by Stephen King, the film charts the life of a man sent to prison for a crime he knows he didn't commit. As the title suggests Redemption is at the heart of the story but it also covers other themes like mission, whitness and the nature of satan. For example the warden is a prime example of an evil authority figure who uses good people for his own ends, even if it meant stoping him from obtaining freedom. I'll say no more because I don't want to ruin it for you. Bottom line is go see Shawshank Redemption!
 
I'm just trying to make sure this thread stays on topic

You dont have to worry about that, there really is no need to put rules. I just hope the thread concerning the Golden Compass was not your motivation to add those rules.

Like I said above, I dont see how it would turn into a debate, you ask for touching movies.

The moderators are here to keep order and put things in place, so believe us when we say there's no need for you to lay down any rules. The TJ Family is not what you think they are. You dont have to worry about wolves in sheep clothing we do a great job banning them from the site. God has bless us with a loving group of people, so please dont be to quick to put any of us in a category.

I repeat no need for rules leave " trouble makers" for the Moderators and Admin to address. There are options to report a post or you're free to pm the Administrator if you have any complaints against members.

Just enjoy the fellowship and allow others to express themselves freely.
 
oh this and the golden compass thread are totally unrelated, i was originally gonna post on this first but that caught my eye first, I'm just trying to be sensitive to the fact that some people may be against the movie industry (which I can understand) and I was just trying to make sure that I don't spark a debate (inkeeping with the rules).
 
Point taken God bless.

I'm not a movie fanatic as much, because before my interest was horror films and crazy stuff , that I no longer entertain. (ok I got nightmares:embarasse )

My favourite movie of all time was Grease...
I love the Pianist View attachment 154
I love movies based on true stories, its crazy the stuff he went through. Its shows how "evil" the world can be, and we should never use it as an excuse to fail.

I also like the notebook View attachment 155

I dont watch tv that much and the last time I went to the movies was in January, so right now most of the stuff I watch are Christian movies.
 
Theres definatly something attractive about horror movies, I guess its the sense of controlled fear that gives us a buzz. That type of thing can be dangerous though, like you said it can give you nightmares and if any movie genre glorifies the works of the enemy, horror has got to be up there (exorcist being a case in point).

The Pianist is really harrowing, I don't know how they guy lasted that long. Another really good WW2 thing is Band of Brothers which is a true story about the 501st company of the 101st airborne divison called Easy Company. Its a TV series thats totally indispensible if you want to know what the allies sacrificed in WW2. It follows the company from boot camp through to the end of the war as they live, fight and die together. The series was probably one of the most moving things I have ever seen (I cried atleast 5 times). Its not for the faint of heart but if your a WW2 buff (like myself) its a must see.

I also just finished watching the World's Fastest Indian, another true story. Set in the early 1960's, the film is about an elderly man from a small town in newzeland who sets a land speed record for streamlined bikes below 1000cc on the salt flats in utah. Its an amazing story in its self but one of the best things about it is how friendly and affable he is. His religion is never discussed in the movie but the man (Burt Munroe if you want to google him) is an example to us all. He always seems to act with kindness and love for his common man, winning anyone who could be hostile over with his old school wisdom and open personality. Definatly worth a watch if your feeling a bit world weary or are just lacking that warm fuzzy feeling inside.

My favourite kind of movie is drama's especially true life drama's. Some of them that I have enjoyed was:

Life of David Gale
The Perfect Husband
Walk the Line
Freedom Writers

My memory is not very good at the moment but I know there are tons of movies I enjoyed. I also like comedies and some action. Horror's and thrillers aren't my style anymore either. It is probably the main reason for the attacks I have from Satan (Long story) and don't worry I won't go off topic, I'll post it somewhere else sometime.

I love watching movies, but it is just a pity about all the sex and swearing these days. They often use the Lord's name in vain and my husband and I always make the joke "oh it's a Christian movie"!

Ya its a shame there's so much swearing in movies, its a strange convention because it never really adds much to the film. I've never heard anyone say "ya I like that movie, the swearing was really good". If your into real life drama Worlds Fastest Indian (mentioned previously) is definatly worth a watch.
 
300

I have noticed a couple movies which are end time parables of the last 7 years and the manchild ministry and the witnessess ministry. I am only going to explain one of them here as one is more noticeable if watched then the one I am going to explain here. The first one I noticed that I am not going into here is called " The Chronicles of Riddick". It is complete with examples of the manchild the woman in the wilderness, the beast kingdom, the mark, the false prophet, apostates etc.. and there is not too much wickedness in it to look at. I believe that last night after I had watched the other movie for the second time, the Lord kept me up all night revealing more in the movie than what I originally saw in it and I am going to post alot of it here but not all because it is just far too much and I am sure there may be even more I did not see. He impressed upon me that as Jesus spoke in parables that the multitudes crowded to hear so these movies are parables for the world to see even though it is not given to them to understand them but only those to whom it is given will see the end time examples in them. Just as the crowd in his day was drawn to what they saw in his miracles of healing and deliverance and interested their flesh, to most of them it was not for them to understand and in the same way these movies are interesting to the flesh( the one i will explain has nudity and sex and brutal violence in it) but it is not given to them to understand what is being shown.) The other thing is that the one I am going to explain here is 300- and is a somewhat history based movie which is perfect since we understand that history replays and the parts that are filled in by the writers are clearly influenced of the Lord without them having any idea. Because this movie has some unsavery things to see I am not recommending it, that is between each person and the Lord if He wills them to see it and this is why I am going to explain what He revealed to me in it so it can be seen without being seen for those whom would not want to expose themselves to the nakedness etc.. in it. here is some of what the Lord showed me in this movie.- I am putting the spiritual meanings in ( )

At the beginning a baby is born to a spartan woman ( manchild born to the woman, sparta is as spiritual israel) this baby will grow up to be King( he is the manchild with the King in him and is seen through the whole movie as the King, Christ in him, not in his flesh as self)Rev 12:5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and [to] his throne.

It is explained that only those babies in Sparta(israel) who are strong are kept and the rest are killed( only the seed that is sown on good ground and bares fruit is kept the rest are taken away) Matt.13:8 But other fell into good ground, and brought forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold.

These babies are raised to fight and to the flesh it looks brutal just as the Lord prepares us for His service and that can look cruel to the flesh, requiring it to die to self. When these boys are around 11 they are sent into the wilderness alone to learn to survive. The boy-king who was shown is sent out and encounters a wolf which he defeats by standing in a narrow passage where the wolf cannot reach him and he slays the wolf. Matt;10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.Matt.7:13-15 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

Now this boy king is shown as a man as king just as Jesus was shown in the gospels born of a woman then going right into his ministry as an adult.( As grown King CHrist is manifest in him and now he is only seen as Christ- King. His name is King Leonitis= leo is a lion just as Jesus is the lion of Judah)

The King is seen training up his own son as he was trained ( the manchild will train up the disciples, as the witnessess to have christ manifest in them also).

A messenger from the Medes and persians comes and tells the King that they must submit an offering of land and water to the medes in order to save themselves.( the messenger is the spiritual enemy come to require us to give up our promised land to save self and join ourselves to the beast kingdom which is the medes and persians) Luke 2:1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.Dan.9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make [it] desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

The Kings wife ( she represents the woman, church) tells this messenger to watch his mouth amoung them and the messenger rebukes her for thinking as a woman she can speak to men. She tells him that she can speak because only Spartan women bare real men.( Only the Woman bares men from heaven in their womb and the Woman in Christ is given authoirty over the world and the enemy that is now under our feet in Christ)

The King tells the messenger that they do not submit and the King pushes the messenger and those with him into a pit.( sends these spiritual enemies back to hell by His autority in CHrist)

The King now goes to a mountian to speak to the spiritual elders of sparta these men are half swine half man.( they are the corrupted and false apostate spiritual leadership of israel just as in jesus day they are unclean with their own ways.)

These swine men have to ask the oracle who gets high from unclean smoke and propheises to them ( false prophetess's and false spirit) she says they will fall and be defeated( bad report) and says they should honor the gods and the laws ( wants to bind the manchild's actions to their man made laws and to their false jesus)

King leaves and is going to go against the medes anyways and a man is seen who comming to the swine men with money to bribe them from the medes and offers them more gold and oracles( unclean women) ( this man that comes is a judas and is shown to be one from here although the rest of sparta ( israel)doesnt know he is yet.)

The King prepares the 300 ( they are the corporate body of the manchild, the small firstfruits harvest that is represtned by their King which is Christ).

Men from the senate ( church leadership) come to tell the King that their law says that He cannot go and take their armies to war.( they are trying to bind him to man made laws, just as in jesus day) the King says He is not taking the spartan army He is only taking these 300 men with him.( only the manchild's ministry goes out first)

The Kings wife(church) and son(the beleivers who will become the witnessess) stand and watch the 300 leave to go out.

The 300 come upon a city that has been destroyed by the medes and all the people who lived there are slain and hung on a tree.( they submitted to the beast army and therefore are forever damned and cursed and must be their own curse on the tree as they did not accept Jesus becomming a curse for them.)

Once child comes out who survived( did not submit) and the child tells of how they came with beasts from the darkness( demons) and in the arms of the manchild King( christ) the child dies ( to self).

The 300 go on to the " hot gates" which is a narrow passage between two mountians where they have planned to fight as one so they cannot be overcome there. Deut 28:14-15 And thou shalt not go aside from any of the words which I command thee this day, [to] the right hand, or [to] the left, to go after other gods to serve them.But it shall come to pass, if thou wilt not hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all his commandments and his statutes which I command thee this day; that all these curses shall come upon thee, and overtake thee: Pro.4:27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.

At the hot gates they make a wall built of stones and the bodies of scouts that were sent to spy on them from the medes. the wall blocks the only weakness in this narrow passage.( they are built as a wall of pertection as living stones and the dead old man helps strengthens the wall when if kept alive it works against our promised land for the enemy. when we feed on the old man it dies and our spiritual man is made strong i.e. the wall)

A hunch back man comes who is dressed as one of the spartan soldiers and talks to the King. He explains that When he was born the love of his mother( the mother denomination he was born to) fled sparta so he would not be killed. He offers to be a soldier and he got his uniform from his father ( carries the name of christian). the King tests him and tells him to hold his shield up as high as he can ( shield of faith) and the mans arm is weak and he cannot hold it high. The king explains that they fight as one single unit and each man protects the man to his left with his shield(faith) from knee to neck and if there is any weakness the whole body falls. Judg 20:11 So all the men of Israel were gathered against the city, knit together as one man.Eph 4:12-16 For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ:Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure of the stature of the fulness of Christ:That we [henceforth] be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, [and] cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, [even] Christ:From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

So the King tells the man He cannot be a soldier but he can help by bringing water and cleaning dead bodies from the battle field. the man is angered at this and it is revealed that he has an idol for the potion of manchild which he is denied having. showing that he is not sown on good ground but is- Matt 13:22He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

The man leaves saying the king is wrong ( turns from Christ for his own idol)

The fighting being between the 300 and the medes and persians and many different forms of enemies come, soldiers, beasts etc,,( all diff forms of spiritual enemies) the 300 are seen fighting as one solid unite,body. Together they block, push forward, fight etc..

Another messenger comes from the king of the medes xerces. This messenger has a whip and wants to bring them into submission to xerxes ( satan ruling over the beast kingdom) and as he goes to whip the 200 they cut off his hand.( we are free men in Christ not to be brought under slavery any longer to flesh or the enemy or the elements of the world)

Xerces comes and calls himself a god and uses all the titles that belong only to God like king of kings and Lord of hosts etc.. ( satan likes to try to exalt himself) Xerces offers the King reign and power over kingdoms etc... and the King turns him down and does not submit to him Matt 4:1-11Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in [their] hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

Xerxes left when the King turned him down.

The hunch back man goes to xerces to betray the manchild in his anger and when he gets there there is alot of women fornicating and adorned and naked some are deformed ( it is as if seeing their spiritual condition) and xerces offers the hunchback women and riches if he will help them to defeat the 300. The hunchback says he also wants a uniform ( the idol of his heart) and xerces says he will give him one. then xerces ( satan) stands and says " Leonitis(the Lord) requires you to stand, I only require you to bow" ( as is true the Lord requires us to stand in him, but satan is happy if you just bow to him) and xerces claims that he is merciful but leonitis is cruel. the hunchback takes the deal and tells xerces of a hidden old sheep herders path that leads behind the narrow passage where the 300 are held up at.

Back in Sparta the woman is going soon to speak to the senate to convince them to send the armies to help the 300, she meets before with the man who was shown to be a judas to win him to her cause and he says that to get her support she must give herself to him if she really loves her country and her king. she agrees to do so but doesnt want to.

The next day before the sentate she goes and speaks and he is suppose to back her up but instead he turns on her and tells the sentate that she tried to bribe him with her body but that he did not do it (the son of perditions deciet) and calls her their ***** queen. she stabs him and money falls from his body and it is seen by the sentate that the money has xerces face on it and they know he is a traitor ( judas)

The 300 now have xerces and his armies come from behind them and the 300 are seen in a fornation like a dome where you do not see any of them at all ( no self showing) only their shields( faith) can be seen and the King stands in front of them ( all that is seen is Christ manifested in them, no self is there and they are protected by faith)

Another spokesman for xerces offers the king power etc.. again if he will just bow to xerces.

The hunchback steps out of the crowd and tries to convince the King to use his reason and submit and the King looks at the hunchback who he knows betrayed them and the King blessess the hunch back and a look of complete anguish is seen on the hunchbacks face. Rom, 12:19-21 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but [rather] give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance [is] mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head.Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. Luke 6:27-29But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.And unto him that smiteth thee on the [one] cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not [to take thy] coat also.

The King acts like he is going to bow but instead he yells and his men stand and fight and the King throws his spear at xerces and cuts his cheek showing that he can bleed and is not a god ( satans defeat is shown and his pride brought low) (even though the King throws a spear it reminded me of how the manchild shoots from his bow, the arrows that are the witnessess just as jesus sent out his diciples)

Xerces men fire back and all the 300 and the king are killed.( just as jesus died after his 3 1'2 yrs in the gospels, we know it is not given for the manchild to die but it shows the end of his ministry.)

A messenger that King Leonitis sent back before this to tell their story, meets the woman(church) and her son( christ now in the two witnessess) they meet in a wheat field where the heads of wheat are seen and there ar mountians behind them with the sun risen ( this is the time of the second ingathering harvest when christ is risen int he hearts of the witnessess and it is time for their minitry to begin. 2 peter 1:16-19 acts 1:8 rev 11 zech 4

then the rest of the spartan army is seen ( the large body of the witnessess) and they are preparing to go out to war against the beast army.


that is the whole movie- this pagan king and his father are spoken of in ezra, daniel haggai, zech, and ester and this movie came out the same time as the movie about ester which we know is the other parable of the manchild/ bride end time situation.
 
I notice alot of Churches are now using secular movies to develop sermons. Some movies I think are coincidence and others were just made to get Christian viewers.
 
A movie that i absolutely loved and adored is 'Fireproof' with Kirk Cameron. This movie can be used as a great example for couples. in the movie Kirk was struggling in his marriage. His father speaks to him and lets him know that the only way to save his marriage is by leaving it in God's hands.
Another movie that i really enjoyed and touched me deeply was 'Book of Eli' with Denzel Washington. This movie is a real eyeopener for those in need. The though of a word without God and His Word is just unbearable.
Other movies that I really like are the Love Series (Love Comes Softly, Love's Enduring Promise, Love's Long Journey, Love's Abiding Joy, Love's Unending Legacy, Love's Unfolding Dream, Love Takes Wing) But I would probably say that women would enjoy these more than men.
Faith Like Potatoes is also a good movie about a man that seeks God because his crops aren't fruitful.
I highly recommend all of these movies.
God Bless!!
 
Faith4Bride, I must say that when i first saw this movie a couple of years ago I didn't think of it as you have explained it. Thank you for this post. I am definitely going to have to watch this movie again and pay closer attention to it.
God Bless!!!
 
I love movies so much, too. I agree about "Fireproof"; I just loved that movie. I love all Jefferson Moore's movies ~ "Perfect Stranger", "Another Perfect Stranger", "Clancy", & "The Perfect Gift". "Oversold" is good with Chrissy Moran (a former porn star-turned born-again Christian). It's a modern day parable of the book of Hosea. "Joshua" was good, too.
 
Alias Nick Beal (1949)

Ray Milland
Audrey totter
Thomas Mitchell

A movie (secular) about the operations of the devil and the decisions one makes in accordance to his way, until the devil is faced to face with the Word of God! I give it a five star rating for anyone to watch!

PS. This movie begins with the hymn music "Mighty Fortress" and ends the same!

People people, watch Flywheel! Awesome movie. Fireproof is also a wonderful movie. I really like the movies from the Bible Series. I especially like Joseph, David, Jacob, Abraham, Jeremiah, Esther... :) There's also Time Changer, Faith Like Potatoes, just to name a few more of my favs.. :)
 
You dont have to worry about that, there really is no need to put rules. I just hope the thread concerning the Golden Compass was not your motivation to add those rules.

Like I said above, I dont see how it would turn into a debate, you ask for touching movies.

The moderators are here to keep order and put things in place, so believe us when we say there's no need for you to lay down any rules. The TJ Family is not what you think they are. You dont have to worry about wolves in sheep clothing we do a great job banning them from the site. God has bless us with a loving group of people, so please dont be to quick to put any of us in a category.

I repeat no need for rules leave " trouble makers" for the Moderators and Admin to address. There are options to report a post or you're free to pm the Administrator if you have any complaints against members.

Just enjoy the fellowship and allow others to express themselves freely.


Amen brother. This is a Christian website; nobody should be judged. Only ban those who speak offensively.
