Messianic Reaction to The Chosen S4 E4 | Gaius Becomes a Believer in Yeshua?!

[@TheSunTheMoonTheStars10]

I get teary eyed every time I hear Gaius say "I'm not worthy" with utter humility. I"m not worthy either. None of us are.

[@tomheinle1049]

I think the scene when Gaius comes to Peter's house and kneels to Jesus asking for the healing of his son is one of the most moving and joyous events up to this point.

[@SteveZingsheim1970]

Absolutely! The fact that "The Lord" of Capernum kneels and calls Jesus Lord is at once stunning and beautiful, even though we knew it was coming!

[@Grafted]

Totally agree!

[@iluvrolaz]

I love that final scene when gaius gives Jesus some measure of comfort when he sees how distraught He is... for once, someone is offering HIM comfort, instead of asking or even expecting it from Him!!!

[@mandylester9360]

Yes!!! I cry at that scene every single time!

[@rafaelramoscardona3108]

A lot of people don't realize the magnitude of what Gaius does there. Giving someone a hug is yes a sign of care and love. But to put your hand behind their head while doing so is a sign of a deeper affection, love and equally, comfort. And so to have our Lord and Savior, our Comforter be comforted back really makes that final scene that more important.

[@Jean-qx4gl]

Yes I felt Gaiu’s hug was because he KNEW what -as a Roman soldier-was going to happen..no one I saw ever put their hands on Jesus’s head

[@iluvrolaz]

Yeah, gaius going to Jesus is definitely one of my all time favorite scenes in the entire series!

[@thankfulme2]

Hard tie with John 3:16 and the realization of Nicodemus 😭 Gotta have extra tissues for them!

[@susanbarnes9800]

​@@thankfulme2Agreed. My 2 favorites!! So far.....

From the WWW: "The motto FESTINA LENTE means "Make haste slowly." It is a Latin phrase that encourages individuals to take deliberate and careful actions, even when faced with a sense of urgency." :)

[@elenoryn4700]

Thanks for sharing that, I was looking for an explanation in the comments! What a fitting thing to say in the situation of Gaius.

[@thomaslongo5051]

It was a favorite saying of Augustus Caesar.

[@hutch1285]

The contrast between Gaius’s humility and James and John’s audacity is striking. So well done.

[@robynlockwood348]

I love how Gaius hugs Jesus and puts his hand on Jesus' head to comfort him.

[@mikeabrams8959]

Jesus needs comfort ? Doubtful He needed human comfort .🤔 just sayin.

[@lance9249]

@@mikeabrams8959 He was fully man while being fully God. The verse "Jesus wept" tells me he went through all the emotions we do.

[@MortenBendiksen]

Needs is s strong word. He feels sad and beaten. A hug feels good. Friendship feels good. The only reason God does any of this is because he deeply desires that hug. He doesn't need it. But without it there would be no real relationship, and relationship is, in my humble opinion, why God creates in the first place. God puts himself in the story, in order to build true relationships.

[@UtopiaBlue68]

Jesus is not his father he's not God but he is the son of God. God, Jesus and thw Holy spirit are of course all interconnected but this is where Christians get it all misunderstood. God is the creator the father and his power is called the Holy Spirit while Jesus is his son.

[@karennorris6135]

@@mikeabrams8959He sweat drops of blood so I’m sure His humaness did!

[@suzettemariano7872]

Gaius conversion was one of the most beautiful and moving conversion in the chosen and in the bible too. They built up his character to the climax of Gentile faith coming to Yeshua, the King of kings and Lord of lords. His allegiance to Jesus revealed a beautiful picture of the true Kingdom to come. No Jews, no Gentile, neither male nor female, neither rich nor poor, neither free nor slaves. The Kingdom is available for everyone. Blessed is he who comes in the Name of the Lord.

[@gregkral4467]

I so love the portrayal of Gaius, is so wonderful, so intense. Love how after his request, just goes gets gifts, supplies, snuffs out the altar candles, and knows. Man, that is so beautiful, and true.

[@jacquesummers4766]

My heart is full with Gaius and his conversion (and his wife)

[@patriciaposthumus6684]

Haven't finished this video yet. I just wanted to make this comment while it's fresh in my mind. When my mom died 2 yrs ago, even in the middle of my grief, I was praising God. My mom was a wonderful, caring, and giving person, and I was sitting by her side when she left this realm. I had to praise God because she was diagnosed with cancer on Feb. 22nd and passed on Feb 26th. God, in all his glory, took this beautiful lady home so she would not have to feel the pain of this disease, and for that, I praise God. Even though I still morn today, I know she is not truly dead. I am a follower of Christ. He has already paid the price for us all. There is only life now. It's life here in this realm of the physical or life in heaven in the spirit. Jesus over came the grave for us so that we may only know life. So I'm not afraid to "die" as I know that it is just my physical body coming to an end. My spiritual body will live on in Heaven with my Lord! This was placed on my heart to share this right now because someone really needs to hear this. Praise God in all things, even when it's hard. Especially when it's hard. May God bless you all.

[@SaveThePerishing]

Hi Patricia, Even though its been 2 yrs ago, I'm sorry for the loss of your Mother. I do have a question about something you said. You said "I am a follower of Christ. He has already paid the price for us all. There is only life now." Are you saying I am going to heaven because Christ already paid the price for me? Do I have to do anything?

[@patriciaposthumus6684]

@SaveThePerishing if you are a follower of His, if you know and truly believe that He is God's son, then yes, you are going to heaven. You really don't have to do anything except believe. Follow God's laws in the 10 Commandments and the 1 law He set in the New Testament. Love thy neighbor as yourself. Basically, it's the golden rule. Do unto others as you would have done to you. In other words, treat everybody how you want to be treated. What makes you worried that you might not be going to heaven? Jesus even said that He is the way, the truth, and the light. All you have to do is follow Him.

[@angelaknowlton9116]

When Gaius hugs Jesus…. Jesus’s sacrifice is going to reaches the gentiles and finally allows for salvation for all. Having Gauis come and hug Jesus at that time in gratitude for His healing and sacrifice…. Is awesome. This moment was extremely touching for me. It was a gift from God when Jesus was praying. Remember this is why you will endure… this sacrifice will fix the separation. So beautiful

[@GoodwillCriminalsOfDallas]

I seem to remember a story about a Roman man converting to Jesus and bringing his whole household to be babtised. I wonder if it was Gaius? I was thinking of.

[@ultimatespidybawlz2198]

[@faithisrising]

One of my very favorite storylines is Gaius. So beautifully done.

[@sofiamarie9136]

And the interviews with the actor are so heartwarming, especially where Dallas is asking him about the season 4 episodes. Dallas has made a commitment to have him in every movie and tv show he makes, and so far he’s kept that commitment with not only The Chosen but with previous films. Just so sweet to watch them chat. 💜

[@bernadettematera-stacey1982]

So amazing (38:30), to see a Roman praetor, on his knees in front of a room full of Jewish people!! That speaks volumes about the depth of his faith, and his desperation. ❤ Love Gaius ❤

[@ValiantPeony]

The grief brought on by the loss of a child is beyond words. The inspiration after weeks of surrender and prayer that came after losing our juvenille daughter was this, "As you mourn your daughter, know this, that loosing any of my children is just as grievous to me."

[@janeyranlett6567]

Out of the several channels with reactions to The Chosen, yours is by far my favorite. See you at ChosenCon 😊

[@Grafted]

Thank you so much Janey!

[@Nursfaith]

Mine too

[@sunnybajoras4364]

Gaius' radical transformation is as awesome as Paul's! Both gave allegiance to their"Lord" in total submission!

[@clayguy1]

There is something that is also developing in this series.. When Peter, and Mathew meet with Gaius, you can see the two of them developing into an extension of Jesus.. Their thinking and counseling is evolving.. They're no longer in the dark as to what is happening.. they're coming slowly into the light and knowledge that Jesus is teaching them. This so brilliantly being done..

[@valeriehansenwhisenand3342]

This season of The Chosen really helped me set aside guilt I had felt for smiling around the time of my husband's funeral. "Hearts are so tender..." that scene really healed me.

[@jacquesummers4766]

This is the first time I have seen or heard of you guys. The two of you are so good together. You don’t interrupt just to give a play by play. I appreciate the information you provided in such a calming process. Thank you! Yes I have subscribed and I look forward to see and hear more from you.

Gaius is such an awesome example and lesson for the disciples, greatest faith Jesus saw in all Isreal...... massive lesson...... what an amazing and miraculous event.

The last scene in that episode..... When the camera focuses on Gaius placing his hand on Yeshu's head, consoling Him, a gentile? God, absolutely no words. In tears everytime.

[@kimberlychristianlcsw]

In this series Jesus is accustomed to those he helped and healed hugging him out of gratitude (bear hug style) and nothing wrong with it- beautiful! I imagine most of all will do the same when we see Him. But Gaius hugged Him because Jesus needed comforting in that moment . . . precious.

I liked what Thomas said to Kafni about Ramah

[@iluvrolaz]

How amazing would it be if we could just go right to Jesus n be physically held by His physical person, in our times of great anguish, as we sobbed out our pain in His embrace?!?! That's one thing I truly envy those that had the great n immense honor n blessing of getting to live n walk beside Him on this earth, in His lifetime, for!!!

[@sherribrtn]

I cried more watching this Episode and listening to the things you were saying about Gaius and his recognition of unworthiness before Yeshua and I feel like that so often to...like the song "who am I that God would take notice of me..." but then I remember John 3:16 & 17 and I just praise Him through my teary eyes and stuffed up nose! I did find myself staring at Sam's beard wondering what was in/on the bottom of it? Fuzz, food crumbs or gray/silver hair catching the light in a funny way. I have enough trouble not getting distracted as it is so maybe you can check the facial hair before filming! I love you guys and I am a grateful, monthly supporter! Keep up the great work!
