Bio: Ruslan KD is a Christian KZbinr of Armenian descent who was a refugee from Baku, Azerbaijan, before moving to the United States as a child. He started his KZbin channel in the mid-2010s, which has since grown into a popular platform for discussing faith, lifestyle, and music. Known for his insightful commentary on Christian living, culture, and personal development, Ruslan has built a community of followers who value his thoughtful approach to contemporary issues. In addition to his KZbin presence, Ruslan is a speaker, author, and advocate for godly ambition, often addressing topics related to leadership, mental health, and the integration of faith in everyday life.
Our mission is to encourage, empower, and inspire people to live a life that Blesses God, in accordance with His word. As the Psalmist proclaims, "Bless God in the great congregation, the Lord, O you who are of Israel's fountain" (Psalm 68:26 ESV), and "Every day will I bless Thee; and I will praise Thy name forever and ever" (Psalm 145:2 KJV). Just as Simeon, after encountering Jesus, "took him up in his arms and blessed God" (Luke 2:28 ESV), we seek to lead others in a life of stewardship, relevant engagement, and practical living that honors and blesses the Lord.

[@timmorales1569]

This is a good show and it started as nothing but they got greedy and now with the lawsuits and the. They change stories in the Bible. That lost a lot of points with me. The Bible is something that should be taking as it is and not what people want to make it to be. The whole idea of showing everyday life with Jesus and things that he possibly went through is neat but the word should be left alone.

[@lonnieartis2723]

@RuslanKD Kids shows, if you haven't, check out "Whats in the Bible". Created by one of the original creators of Vegitales.

[@RuslanKD]

“Greed” is a condition of the heart. It’s usually the antithesis of generosity. Let me remind that you don’t know Dallas’ heart or the details of what happened with Angel studios (who took it to court, arbitration specifically) as long as I’ve known Dallas, they’ve been the most generous and gracious. The opposite of greedy. End of the day, the Angel situation was not good and they believed they had a breach of contract and won. Don’t assume that’s greed. That’s wise business. They didn’t “change Bible stories” they created sub plots around characters. Some of which were fictional. Whenever I’ve seen something that’s shocked me in the chosen, I got to scripture and sure enough it’s there. Adding creative dimension and back story isn’t “changing the Bible”

[@nancydrew1102]

[@anonyme3123]

Strange , because the chosen take liberties and do not stay to biblical stories!

[@jfmathenia]

Jesus built the church (Matt. 16:18-19). Jesus gave us tradition - "Do this in remembrance of Me." (Luke 22:19). The scriptures say, do not forsake the assembling of yourselves together (Heb. 10:25). I think it's good you're stripping away the extraneous additions from our culture and returning to the core of our faith, but make sure you listen to all of the scriptures and not just your favorite pieces. Religion is the institution that God wants us to be a part of. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work (2 Tim. 3:16-17). God calls us to be pastors and teachers (Jeremiah 3:15). To use our minds (Mark 12:30). When we put all this together it's called an institution, and more specifically a religion. You can't have Jesus without religion. You cannot separate the two, because He calls us to it. To disregard religion is to disregard his words.

[@phillipmeyer4059]

It is great that you are brought back to Jesus, but Jesus also established a religion. Religion is ordered worship, without order and a Church, Christians will not worship God in Spirit and truth as they are supposed to.

The Christian story did not end with the resurrection, nor even with the Acts. He continues living through the lives of men and women, some of whose stories are so inspiring to be told for His glory.

[@FishermensCorner]

Indeed, most Christians think the finished work is at the resurrection...

[@hurdleguy8014]

Yes because Jesus said on the cross “it is finished..” His work that he came to do in the flesh was complete. But the story is not over as He now has commissioned His followers to go and tell the world the gospel and make disciples!

[@FishermensCorner]

@hurdleguy8014 ... the old Covenant is finished, a Luke 22 he said that the New Covenant will start with the spilling of his blood, and then in Revelation we see Jesus finally declaring it is done... the work is not done until he returns, we are resurrected, and we are established in a new creation. Getting in the way of Christ and the holy spirit's work, is blasphemy of the spirit... and that is the danger of American drive-thru evangelism...

I did a pole of known Christians around 6 months after The Chosen first started. People were going crazy over the show. So, I asked them in the last couple of months if they spent more time watching The Chosen, or reading their Bibles. After asking around 30 random people, not one had spent as much time in scripture as watching The Chosen. Scripture IS the Word of God, it's alive, it will cut deep, it will renew your mind permanently, it will make changes in your life like nothing else. It is God's Word. The Chosen will do none of those things. It might be exciting, thrilling, make you cry, momentarily change your thoughts, etc. It cannot, and will not, ever do what scripture does. Because that would soften and even lessen the Word of God. And, that's not even possible. The show cannot be a replacement, but it has become one to many. Jesus said "When I return will I find faith?". He was giving us a warning. Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. If The Chosen is your thing, then make sure reading the actual Word of God supersedes the time you spend watching The Chosen. By a lot.

[@DissetteNeumann]

The bible study I have participated in for the last 8 years did the bible study of the first season Chosen. The women loved it and said that it brought the bible to life for them and they were closer to God because of it, closer than they had ever been even with all of the past studies we had done. Our next study was Revelation. When those same women who watched The Chosen learned of Jesus when He returns and puts an absolute end to sin, the most frightening comment was, "Oh no! I don't accept that Jesus! I like the Jesus of The Chosen!!!" and it was much more difficult for them to understand what Gods plan in the end is. Jesus came as a lamb, and did not come this time to judge but to be the one to bring peace between God and man. He will come back though to judge and if a show doesn't teach the real bible and truly what is happening than, in my opinion only, you must ask yourself what is it's true purpose?

Galatians 1 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto ANOTHER gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would PERVERT the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach ANY OTHER GOSPEL unto you than that which we have preached unto you, LET HIM BE ACCURSED. 2 Corinthians 11 3 But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through HIS SUBTLETY, so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that cometh preacheth ANOTHER Jesus, whom we have not preached, OR if ye receive ANOTHER SPIRIT, which ye have not received, or ANOTHER GOSPEL, which ye have not accepted, YE MIGHT WELL BEAR WITH HIM.

The fact that you have to preface this video with the chosen has drawn a distinction between itself and scripture is the exact problem that people are having. This isn’t some King Arthur remake that pulls “inspiration” from a few historical excerpts. You are putting words in the mouth of God himself and portraying him in ways that may or may not be accurate. For example, I have a big problem with the chosen portraying Jesus as needing to rehearse his sermon on the Mount and, as a consequence of it, changing what he wants to say based on the opinions of his disciples. Jesus was a man, yes he needed to eat and drink and sleep and all these other things but he was also God. He knew exactly what needed to be said and when it needed saying. I am thrilled that the chosen is, in many cases, leading people to examine scripture further but I worry about the creative freedoms taken by the director.

Where did you see this? I have not seen a Bible edited with the show words anywhere-they have a blending of The Gospels with a rearranging of the events as were written by the evangelists.

You say this as if the show replaces the bible. It does not. The scripture is still the foundation. The show/shows inspire people to read the word. Its no different than a sermon.

I can see what you are saying, but I feel it's important to understand that even the creators of the Chosen have stated in the show that it is not a replacement or a one to one recreation of the Bible. And with that statement I do believe The Chosen still holds true to Deuteronomy 4:2. Nothing is added unto the Bible because the show and its creators have already said that it isn't meant to be a one to one creation, it's just not possible on screen in a context that is viable for modern media. It still respects the values that the Bible promotes and upholds. And it doesn't claim to be God or a replacement for the Bible like some apocryphal texts do (this is why they are largely tossed aside, because many of them claim to be from the original texts and a part of the Bible and thus, they are violating that Deuteronomy 4:2 rule. The Chosen, does not do this, off the bat it tells you right upfront that it is a dramatization of the Bible meant for the silver screen with the goal of glorifying God. And that multiple Biblical accounts are either condensed, swapped around, or taken out due to lack of time or the inability to properly portray them in the show. Thus it is not adding to or taking away from the word since it does not claim to be it)😊
