Words regarding repentance and faith tend to rub everybody the wrong way. Why is that?
Been a fan of Sean since he was in the goonies when I was a kid..
It’s hard for me to see how “Convert or die” could be more appealing.
Like the Gay Mafia.
We were born dead. The message is convert and live.
We don’t risk judgement. We have all been judged and found wanting.
If you get a chance, see Amazing Love with Sean Astin.
Yep, that came to my mind too. Homosexuals activists are grabbing the mike and shouting us all down, far more than any Christian activists.
but Hollywood under Islam would be a death sentence to all
If by "often" she means 99.5% of the time....
Convert or be blacklisted!
Interesting comments. I wish he’d expound more on what he means.
And Sean Austin.
Didn’t know this about him. Makes sense he’d star in LOTR though, since Tolkein’s story has Christian undertones.
Exactly. John15:18 - Christ called it two thousand years ago.
If Christians are making it harder for themselves it is simply by virtue of who they've chosen to follow.
"The bravest are surely those who have the clearest vision
of what is before them, glory and danger alike,
and yet notwithstanding, go out to meet it."~Thucydides
This comment here tells me that Astin is wholly disingenuous. Does this mean that Hollywood should ignore the homosexual movement or the pedophiles? Yeah, that's what I thought.
Those unknown forces Astin references? They are not unknown forces.
Loved that movie! What a beautiful depiction of Hosea, and we did appreciate the commentary from Sean Astins camp counselor character. We (hubby and I) would love to see more of these kind of movies. Maybe he could do a series! :)
Assumed a Christian Posture.
What does that mean? Not to nitpick, but Jesus didn’t ask his followers to assume a Christian posture.
More than just undertones. Tolkien was an ardent, deeply convinced Catholic and said that the books were explicitly Catholic in theme and typology. Unconsciously to begin with, he said, but deliberately as he went on.
