Here is the Film caption…

“In a world where kings and empires rise and fall, where fantasy becomes reality, where armies are slaughtered for thier beliefs, where rulers are disemboweled on toilets, where sex and passion are in the open….there stands one man willing to change it all……
This summer embark on a journey from other worlds to an earthly garden and discover what it really means to be ALIVE….the Bible…opens in theaters everywhere june 2009″

We are having a great discussion in my last post about the watchmen. WHICH I DON’t RECOMMEND (sadly..I really wish I could). Go read the comments. Great stuff.

Anyway, It got me thinking. I have always found it odd how much violence and sex etc etc is in the Bible and that even by our own standards we would not see it if it was a movie. Just an interesting thought.

Anybody have any thoughts on that?

straight from the word! God believed in twitter too

Is it just me or does this verse freak you out?

8 “If your hand or your foot gets in the way of God, chop it off and throw it away. You’re better off maimed or lame and alive than the proud owners of two hands and two feet, godless in a furnace of eternal fire. 9 And if your eye distracts you from God, pull it out and throw it away. You’re better off one-eyed and alive than exercising your twenty-twenty vision from inside the fire of hell. Matthew 18:8-9

I was thinking about this the other day. So I lie, I get too angry, I lust, I hurt, I use my feet and walk into situations that are not good and my hands. Are you there also? I’m not perfect.
Seems that if I took this literally I would be walking around with no eyes, feet, hands, or tongue.

Thank God His grace is perfect.

So I was reading to my boys today the story of Adam and Eve. The bible says the snake tells eve that it is ok to eat the apple. Adam is right there when the snake tells her this.

I paused for a second and thought… hmmm…thats me thinking.

I goes right into Eve eating it and then uh oh…, but I feel like it is missing something I never noticed.

A TALKING SNAKE!…

My guess is they were not warned by God..”oh by the way there is a bad angel in snake form…watch out for him.”

So if he didn’t why were they not alarmed by the Talking snake. Were the other animals able to talk? was it just the norm?

There has to be a reason why it doesn’t say ..

And adam said, while throwing the apple in the air. “AHHHH…A Talking Snake!”

any thoughts?

This month the boys at AC180 are reading Nehemiah….Want to join us?
