Mark_18

I hope this thread isn't breaking any rules. I just watched the Zeitgeist movie.

Warning. This movie does it's very best to try and kill your faith.



This is the most disturbing/informative/maddening/sickening/confusing/crazy video I have ever seen.

The first part is about religion and it really got to me. It had me feeling extremely cold and alone. Like I didn't know what to believe anymore. Like I can't turn to anyone including God because "Religion is just a way we are controled". I warn you now, the first part of the movie is scary to a believer. I don't come out of it thinking there is no God, but I do come out of it questioning Jesus. It sickens me to say that, but I have to be honest. If you watch the whole first part of the movie, you will see what I mean when I say that. I honestly have to say, I saw how one could end up in a mental institution! When one has no belief at all to turn to. Has anyone else had this feeling? It's the scariest thing.

Forgetting about that first part for a minute. I tend to believe the rest of it for the most part. Not including anything to do with religion that is. In my mind, by the end it certainly starts running parallel with the bible and end times.

Besides the first part of the movie, I say this is a must watch. It's scary because there's nothing we can do to stop what is happening.

I imagine the people who are responsible (You'll understand who that is if you watch it) and I can see the anti-christ being somewhere in there. As well as the beasts. What I see cannot be planned by man. No way.

Can you guys give me something that will help me understand why I should praise Jesus? I feel the presence of God, but I need reassurance that Christianity is as purely about God as I thought it was. It's okay, I'm just hitting a rough patch here guys, I believe I will be okay. I would think that I wouldn't feel right, if Jesus wasn't the son of God, and I worshiped him... I would think God would let me know... Ya know?

I haven't slept yet and I have school in 4 hours! Why do I keep doing this to myself?

EDIT: Now I REALLY understand "Set Me Free" by Casting Crowns. All along I was SUCH an immature Christian. So easily rattled and scared. WOW! I could not have imagined the next step would look like this. A new level of wisdom, faith, and beauty. I'm sure you guys understand...

I have watched this foolishness and personally I think it is a waste of time and dangerous for the young in faith. It is just another sad attempt to discredit the gospel. There is a spirit of despair and depression at work there also.
My Jesus is real- He talks to me, He walks with me, He fills my life with joy and strength and knowing Him is the greatest thing in my life. No movie aimed at discrediting my faith can rock my relationship.

I need someone to talk to more in depth about the first part of this movie. I feel that ignoring it is being unfair to myself. I don't think any media should be completely pushed aside. I want to see everything with an open mind, as hard as things may be to discern.

I watched the first 1/3 of this movie several days ago which was about Jesus. This blasphemy is a work of the devil. It can take the little faith someone has gathered and tramples over it.

It can destroy your faith if you are not rooted and well aware that it is based on deception.

I DO NOT recommend anyone watching it, no good can come from it, and it contaminates a sanctified mind worse than pornography.

This is dangerous not only for Christians, but more for those who have never experienced the Grace of God, but have only heard these false truths

It claims to be the Truth and questions our purpose...Did Solomon not investigate these subjects? Read over Ecclesiastes and Proverbs, for he was a wiser man than any of us.
