What are some good Christian movies?
What are some good Christian movies?
Christianity still hasn't recovered.
a man for all seasons
The ones of you and your pastor that he has locked in a safe in his room are pretty good imo
MoS
BvS
Passion of the Christ
Jesus of Nazareth
pulp fiction
I actually considered posting this but didn't feel like looking up a photo.
Bill Maher a comedic shit but this movie is the epitome of BTFO Christians.
dogma
Prince of Egypt
Pic related is underrated kino.
it's a wonderful life
Yeah, sure. Really BTFO'd aren't they?
dark skies was a pretty shitty movie but it still creeped me out pretty good
Silence, dummy
Billy boy BTFO
Kingdom of Heaven, probably.

Everything in the religion section. The only movies beyond that you should watch are Jesus Christ Superstar, The Last Temptation of Christ, Passion of the Christ, and Silence.
Last days in the desert
Andrei Rublev
Au hazard balthasar
I'm Christian and I enjoy watching Real Time, but there is no point in me watching that movie. I already know what Bill's position on religion is. That movie exists mainly just to jerk off atheists than actually convince anybody of anything.
Pretty much anything by Terrence malick
Pretty much anything by Robert Bresson
The passion
The king of kings
A serious man
Andrei Rublev
The Mission is so good it almost makes it seem like Christianity isn't a morally bankrupt scam.
Criticisms about the film were on point but that's about it. Still a bumbling bible thumper.
The Gospel of John was good if you're interested in Bible stories without Hollywood shit
I'm atheist and I never bothered watching it for the same reason. The fucking edgy kids that like to get ideologically jerked off like that make us all look bad.
>it's an Evangelicals are taken serious by anybody but Evangelicals episode
It's easy arguing with literalists cause they are retards.
>Values
>Schindler's List
What did the Vatican mean by this?
>A serious man
Wat?
It's based on the book on job.
Never read it.
>without Hollywood shit
>portrays Jesus as a long haired hippie
pick one
Henry Ian Cusick is the best Jesus. Also if I remember it correctly it follows the text verbatim from the Bible
Reading the KJV Bible
This
Start off with the four gospels, I recommend reading the book of John first as its a lot of entry level scripture, like how to be saved.
>it's a shame for a man to have long hair
>jesus has long hair in the film
blasphemy
The exorcist
>Old Testament
Might as well read the Talmud while you're at it.
for beginners I recommend literal cover to cover to get a sense of the book as a whole, then NT/OT
most people gloss over the OT, which is sad because it gives the Gospels much context
also shows the harmony of the OT with the NT (God referring to himself as a group in Genesis, the prophecies of Christ, Israel's folloes etc)
Missing Justice League.
KJV old testament is still the word of God, without the law Jesus would be saving us from nothing, also malachi 3:6 brother. God does not change, Jesus was prophecied in the Old Testament with Abraham being tempted to sacrifice his only son (just like God was going to), also Jesus himself said he came to fulfill the law
Read NSRV instead. You won't understand KJV without a lot of study.
I'm not throwing out the OT by any means
But I do think that the NT is better for beginners
Salvation was the same in the NT as it was in the OT, by faith in the LORD
However in the NT we're given a clearer description of salvation, in the OT they didn't have the whole picture
I do agree that you should read NT and OT though
The most important part is to get saved first

>tfw to smart to argue about religion on Sup Forums
feels good to be right
Why is he depicted as having long hair in most of his popular depictions? Seems like something they would fix if it were so obvious.
Exorcist
Constantine
Frailty
>expected meme thread
>get bible study
Well that was unexpected...
Sup Forums is a Christian board
Because all the long haired paintings of Jesus were made during the Renaissance
The Renaissance was a rediscovery of Greco-Roman culture, alot of these artists were faggots
And they painted Jesus in their own image (long hair, long flowing robes, appearing feminine and emaciated)
In reality he just looked like an average guy, he was probably /fit/ too since he worked so much
>2017
>denying the existence of the almighty
>God supposedly made man envisioning that some day he would invent anime and then invent Sup Forums where fedoras, weebs, creationists and "traditionalists" can masturbate to hentai and shemale porn and post memes and smug anime girl faces while greentexting bible verses
What about the Byzantine/Orthodox depictions?
Why did Samson have long hair?
This is too early in art history to be Renaissance
i heard the dialogue is shit
What I get from Samsons hair was that it was long to show how long he had stuck with his vow to be a Nazarite, but that was a special vow that God had ordained
why no samson movie?
The classic Hollywood Biblical epics were part of my childhood, despite my current Atheism.
Ten Commandments and Ben Hur.
This kino
In no particular order:
Calvary
Ordet
The Gospel According to St. Matthew
Andrei Rublev
The Sacrifice
Ostrov
The Passion of Joan of Arc
The Thin Red Line
To The Wonder
The Tree of Life
The Revenant
The Mission
Silence
The Prince of Egypt
And Jesus became the new covenant between man and God, replacing the one with Abraham.
Ostrov is very good.
Deuteronomy? I always thought Knight of Cups was Ecclesiastes, because Ecclesiastes is about a man who had it all but couldn't find any meaning.
I thought Malick was trying to make the three books of poetry in the Bible
Pretty good movie for reminding Christians how out of touch their beliefs are and yet how powerful normal empathy can be.
But the priest is the only good charachter in this movie
Life of Brian?
he works in mysterious ways :^)
End of Evangelion
exactly, the movie had many christians, but the one with empathy stood out
wut
only the priest and the mourning women were christian
who /lasttemptation/ here?
Great film, awesome Peter Gabriel soundtrack.
Only downside is Keitel's performance
>book on job
Did you mean this one?
the entire town went to church and did their confessions
>le reddit le post
Moron.
The Book of Job exists in the Old Testament.
A serious man is not an explicitly Catholic film.
Fair enough. But I was just naming some religious movies in general. I also believe that the book of job is still a good book to read if your Christian.
Same.
The Invention of Lying.
Always bothered me how vehemetly he refused to accept Jesus actually existed. I minored in History so I took a few more classes on that than most and I can't remember there ever being any suggestion to the contrary.
A Man For All Seasons
The Mission
Passion of the Christ
Jesus of Nazareth
Silence
Barabbas (1961)
It has literally best cinematography I have ever seen. Also Anthony Quinn is solid actor unlike many other epic picture stars.
>search Silence
>four hits
Silence is doing well
Is Silence the newest movie in this thread?
Are there other titles from 2010s?
...
...
>no Sebastiane in Saints
faggot
Quo Vadis (1951) - it's not a bad little film about life as a christian under rule of Nero in the early stages of the church. You get to see Christians being fed to lions and shit. Maybe the highlight of the film is Peter Ustinov's portrayal of Nero, who plays his lyre as Rome burns.
Ben-Hur.
The fuck? Is that an actual shot from the movie?
Anyway, have you read the book? How does it compare?
yeah
To the Wonder, Knight of Cups, Spring Breakers
The birth of a Nation
The Agony and the Ecstasy
Passion of the Christ
The Tree of Life
Silence
Andrei Rublev
Ostrov
