Je vis en France. Et je crois que la France est sauvée. Beaucoup de groupe se lèvent et beaucoup de jeunes pour prêcher sa parole dans les rues.

In an era when christianity gets so much bashing, The Chosen keeps climbing. This is how you know God's hand is on something. The revival is on!

[@kizhakayilphilip3612]

Yes.very true

[@cabellero1120]

I would agree.

[@claravanderzouwen5640]

Amen! Thankful for God's timing of this and for the humble actors!

[@moniquecarran7019]

Amen to that! God speaks to us through the bible plus fine people like this actor. God bless him and those who made it possible for us to see the truth. We are blessed to come at a good time (actually perfect) in our lives when we needed God desperately. Amen +

[@EOlson-vt1od]

Jesus, you deserve our best. Thank you for blessing this project. I pray you will use it to draw billions of hearts to yours. In a world that lacks leadership, may many hearts yearn to follow you!

[@tamiberreth7642]

What an answer to prayer! Many have been toiling in France for years to spread The Gospel. I saw it during a college mission trip….this is amazing - praise God!

[@moniquecarran7019]

How wonderful to see the success of this movie. Let God's will be done and with the assistance of this fine actor. Blessed be God forever. Amen.+

[@MagdalenaIsaiah43]

What an amazing surprise to hear "JESUS" speaking French!!! I've been bingeing all the interviews in that language. Who knew Jonathan could actually speak the beautiful language❣️ A truly gifted and humble man. I hope The Chosen does in France what it's done in the English speaking world. Open many hearts to JESUS.🙏🙏🙏✝️✝️✝️💖💖💖

[@Deba7777]

I absolutley LOVE this series, have watched both seasons over and over! This is the work of God, I believe, and I pray it will be a tool in the Holy Spirit's hands to bring hearts to Him! Glory to God!

[@Jenny-gv9kf]

His timing is perfect! I have no doubt this will reach the world, may we become a kinder, calmer, more gentle world. Let us turn our eyes to Him and walk in His word.

[@bernadettematera-stacey1982]

How exciting! May God pour out His love on the people of France through The Chosen!

[@TheWell22]

Beautiful. Such a gift to a broken and confused world.Jesus The Way,The Truth,The life.

[@davidlafleche1142]

Nobody has any business "playing Jesus." We need real doctrine. "Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand" (Matthew 3:2).

[@TheWell22]

Maybe a matter of opinion. May God bless our hearts with His perspective on this,may he show us mercy if we are in error.

Did you know the actor is catholic?

Is this the Truth ,The Life ?

[@TheWell22]

@@Imfrommars444 If he confesses with his mouth that Jesus is Lord&believes that God raised him from the dead,then he will be saved .Romans10:9. So unless you know personally that he has not done this,then it,d be unfair to judge whether he is saved, regardless of who he identifies with,Catholic,Protestant,Pentacostal,what ever,God see,s the heart,All of have lots to learn&there is still time for more revelation to be revealed,may our hearts be enlightened to the Truths we are not seeing,and can error be exposed,by his Grace we all need more mercy daily,I was blessed by watching The Chosen. It's alot more truthful than mainstream media and TV full stop. Yes ,let us be entertained by our Creator&give him glory for what he has made always,but maybe our concerns and prayers could be for people to fall in love with Jesus,especially if they once were but have grown cold . Some people are visual learners and readin the Bible is challenging,let's unite and pray that Yahweh can bring Good forth from a human heart that accepts Christ as Saviour&is born again. We are made in God's image,we all have gone astray ,each to there own way,but God dealt with it by puttin the punishment upon Jesus for our wrong doing,so we gladly receive that and turn to him for mercy and then follow him.

[@Linda-lo4oy]

I see it , I feel it. The Lord is using this work in the Chosen to prepare us for His Grand entrance. My spirit has grown tremendously from discouragement to renewed strength and courage to shout from the depths of my soul that Jesus Christ is real. That He has not forsaken us. I am grateful for the Chosen. I am grateful for our God, and for the love and sacrifice of our Lord, Jesus. Awesome to see the effects of the Chosen on the world.

[@Notacessasionist]

I only got a glimpse of it an saw Jesus portrayed as vanity. The way he said, The word travels fast, and That's an interesting comment, is clever wit, pride, the opposite to Jesus.

[@ianscolari5916]

???

[@Notacessasionist]

@@ianscolari5916 the way he said, the word travels fast, and that's an interesting comment. Clever wit, is pride, not humility. The opposite to Jesus.

[@Ayyeliki]

@@Notacessasionist Respectfully, have you watched the series? I did not take that one comment the way you did, at all. My take was it was a benign comment with yes, humor, which is a wonderful way to connect with humans and prevent them from taking any offense. I wouldn’t read too much into it without watching the series - Jesus is portrayed as gentle, peace-loving, fearless yet emotional and loving and I personally think his portrayal is amazing and inspirational. I’m confident that mostly good is coming out of this entire show, let’s not allow “perfect” to be the enemy of the Very very good! Watch the show, I don’t feel he comes across as proud in any way.

[@Notacessasionist]

@@Ayyeliki I don't agree with your comment, but thanks for your reply and have a good day.

[@Who63]

James Caveizel not only played the best Christ in “THE PASSION”, where in this film is truly biblical, the Chosen is not. Caveizel suffered a heart attack, surgery, carrying the cross he dislocated his shoulder just as Jesus did, he was struck by lightning, his initials are JC, and he was 33 years old. This film made one billion dollars for Catholic Mel Gibson, and he was born to direct and make this film. Mel was turned away by Hollywood with little to no money for production, so he turned to an unknown nobody to help him. This was the works of God to produce this film as many were converted because of it. The Chosen is not biblical, it is through the eyes of an evangelical Bible, the one Luther had books thrown out and distorted it. Even though Roomie is a Catholic, surprised he made this film. Matthew autistic? Backpacks? Roman soldiers were never tall and skinny, but short and stacked as they lifted weights of iron. “The Passion of the Christ” is the most closest to the sufferings and story of our Blessed Mother. Roomie did it for the money. But Dallas says the movie is free...😂 but it isn’t. Ask Roomie how you got your bibles. He’ll tell you by the Catholic Church. Pax.

[@damerkharmawphlang4196]

In Greek (original language of NT), Jesus's initials are IX and in Hebrew (original language of OT), they're YM. And we'll get to the suffering part later, we're still in season 2

[@jeanneamato8278]

Hashem will send the true Messiah when we deserve it. We’re not even close.

[@kathyc7284]

Being as how the only thing we deserve is hell, when will that be?

[@oliverwilson4516]

Jesus is the Messiah.

[@JoseHernandez-xy8mj]

Hope they dont show them as dirt poor. They had an accountant and many followers u know.

[@aurelart9520]

Oh no. There’s so much wrong with this.

[@SuperServant01]

Matthew 24 , he said do not be deceived 4 times. We are facing major apostasy in the church as in falling away. There will be those that come to Jesus that have never known Him and revival to the true remnant. Is our understanding just like the 1st century jew? Will we face persecution just as the 1st century believers?
