The Chosen Cast Religions In REAL Life! 

We know gurl.

You don't say.

fr? i didn´t realize

So they're not over 2,000 years old?? Dang. I feel like I've been lied to.

I feel like she said it because people tend to idolize actors

Now my dear chap, where in the Bible can you find that? Nothing against our black or black American brothers and sisters, there are indeed some very fine Christians in their ranks. But Jesus is no more black or African than he is Swiss or German or "Wasp" American. And even if he weren't the Messiah (but he is) how comes Cesare Borgia into it?

Sorry, see my answer below. It somehow got into the wrong place@@THXGODITSOVER

@@santa_claus-north_pole : I think any THINKING, person should agree that it sounds ludicrous to think that Yeshua was praying to Himself, and considering Himself both Father and Son. Yeshua was/is a Son of God in much the same way as we are sons and daughters of our Earthly parents. Also meaning that we are ALL, Sons and Daughters of God as well, which is something else, He tried to get people to understand but they never grasped even, to this day, sadly and shamefully. The Holy Spirit is an enigma to say the least, and something I wish I understood better myself. Not sure if Jewish belief had this concept or anything like it or not. My Best. Out.

​@@brigitfrey8245first of all why would you want Jesus's race? He is all after all he is God. Putting one over another is a sin

Amen! Born again! (John3:3-7)

That’s very true! Jesus can call us in a heartbeat! It may seem in a heartbeat to us but He had predestined us to be His own since the creation of the world. What our finite mind cannot conceive, Jesus planned from the beginning but will happen at a point in time for us, even most unexpectedly or unceremeniously at times.

Yes, but Dallas has done some pretty awful, shifty things all for the love of money and control. And that isn’t cool. This was a crowd sourced project. We were not supposed to have to pay for this other than if we contributed to the crowd sourcing venture. These programs were supposed to be put on an app that anyone could download and watch anywhere in the world and in their own language. If churches wanted to stream the programs using the app to create a theater like setting, they could do that. They weren’t supposed to charge any money, but the idea was that local churches would be doing that instead of movie theaters. Dallas Jenkins wasn’t supposed to start a separate company and he wasn’t supposed to be making millions off of something already bought and paid for. He kind of swindled the original creators out of that; and claiming they had the right to distribute and make money off of other platforms, including for fee streaming services or in theater via Fantom. Just in the opening weekend of distributing those first three episodes in the theater, they made over $40 million! It makes me so angry that they are showing a few episodes for $14 a pop at the theater in my town. They know they have a fan base so they can release it early and people will pay. There have now been three different showings that have come out of this latest season. I will not go to it, but my mother and two sisters do. When I think that they have now spent $126 total - $42 each - to watch something kind-hearted people contributed to so it could be freely given - LIKE THE GOSPEL - it really angers me. I think it angers Jesus, too. You know, so let’s say they just wanted to distributed in theaters because they thought more people would see it. That’s kind of a dumb assumption, but let’s pretend that. They still chose to charge $14 for each ticket! It didn’t cost that much to distribute. If they had done this on a nonprofit basis, it would still be bad, but not as blatantly awful. Anyhow, to read about people praising Dallas Jenkins as he can do no wrong bothers me immensely. There are a lot of people in the church who just know how to market themselves but then they do really crummy things behind the scenes.

@@toritori5835I don't get the complaint. Like if you want to watch something early pay for it or be patient and wait until it comes out for free . Its not scummy whatsoever. What you want is unrealistic. Early seasons had no problems like this because not much was done in them but as it gets further it gets bigger and bigger and more expensive unless you want the show to look bad. I would not be surprised if Dallas realized that he does not have enough money when the walking on water scene happened and that was just one scene. 14 dollars is not much.

@@toritori5835 The production cost per episode is $5M. Christ made it clear that I am in no position to judge.

Dallas thinks that Mormons worship the same Jesus. You know, the people who believe that Jesus is a created being and Satan‘s brother

Amen!

Regardless of that, I think it’s important that Dallas Jenkins come clean and do the right thing. This whole venture has been crowd sourced. Everyday people contributed money to the campaign so that it could be seen and distributed for free. It was supposed to be downloaded to an app so people could stream it for free. And it was designed so that churches could project it from that app so that if people wanted to see it in the theater like setting, they could do that. It was not supposed to be distributed to streaming services or to movie theaters so that Dallas Jenkins could make millions. For the first weekend of season four, he made $40 million off that release. It is insane that a person have to pay over $40 to see the three releases for Season 4 ($14 a pop at my local theater) when it is supposed to be free. And it was wrong that Dallas Jenkins created a separate company in order to get around the stipulations of the show being a non-profit venture. The gospel is not supposed to be a for profit enterprise. So that’s what this lawsuit is about. Jenkins said nothing to the original creators, Angel Studios about creating his own company and then claiming that that company could distribute the show. Of course, part of the reason he did that is because the original creators, Angel Studios is run by two Mormon men. And he knew that Evangelicals would have an issue with that. so that was his way of being able to claim that it is not a Mormon production, creating this separate company. He’s been incredibly dishonest, but putting on this face as though everything is on the up and up. It’s not right.

@@toritori5835ok. But I’m the end he is really working hard and trying to make it free so stop.

@@toritori5835 There are more complexities to this than what you are presenting. Non-profits cannot distribute royalties to members of the board without causing issues. The Not For Profit is there to allow for donations to be made to help continue to make this free. We are considering the same action so that we can donate our childrens's books. For the time being we are a for profit ministry, but the only reason we are for profit is so that we are not controlled by outside sources that coudl derail what we feel God is leading us to do. We are not out to make millions, but last I checked my mortgage company doesn't just let me stay in my house for free. Last I checked the studio and sound stage that was built, the camera operators, the actors, producers, distribtion house all have employees that need to eat, pay mortgage or rent.... Just because something is profitable doesn't mean that it isn't Gospel driven. It is still free. Our church is showing a few episodes this weekend, free of charge from the Chosen and free of charge to the viewers. No offering is being taken and no admission is being charged. You shoudl see if your church is offering it and if not they should look into it.

totaly agree. Dallas Jenkins needs to stop hiding and come clean. It is not going to do him good to hide anything.@@toritori5835

Yes! Thankfully they don't have the pretentious British accents of old bible movies.

Great comment! 😍

Jonathan Roumie is NOT A CHRISTIAN! To be Catholic or any other, does NOT MEAN they are Christian! A Christian is one who acknowledges they are a sinner and that ONLY CHRIST CAN SAVE US FROM THE WRATH OF GOD. To satisfy the wrath of God, JESUS died for all sinners! They must trust ONLY IN JESUS FOR THEIR SALVATION. JENKINS KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT EVANGELICALISM BECAUSE HE DOES NOT PRACTICE THE TEACHINGS OF THE BIBLE. HE GOES WHEREVER THE MONEY COMES FROM…AND THE FAME!

I don’t think we can say that about Roumie. I think only God gets to make that judgment call. When it comes to Jenkins, though, that is something a little easier to see. We know he made a separate company when he wasn’t supposed to and used it to swindle the original creators. We know that he is making millions ($40 million the first weekend alone of season 4) off a crowd sourced project THAT WAS ALREADY PAID FOR! We know that these programs were supposed to be free, that anyone the world over could download an app and stream it. It wasn’t supposed to be distributed on Amazon (or elsewhere), making money! We know that the reason they didn’t distribute in theaters is because they hoped churches would show it in a theater-like setting projecting from the app. They just weren’t supposed to charge money. That is why people contributed to the crowdsourcing campaign, *so that it could be free, just as the gospel is free!*

Dear Anastasia, you're right by saying everybody must trust in Christ for their salvation and let's hope the actors and everyone who is involved in this show (crew, cameraman, helpers, etc.) will see this. But we must also consider that there are many true believeers also in Catholic churches and many not so true in protestant or evangelical ones. About Jenkins we must see how he behaves as a Christian also away from the set, in his home and private live, etc. Before we know for sure we can't judge people. As for the money issue it's true the show is meant to be free, but that doesn't mean the production thereof is without costs Just consider all the settings they have to use and the participants have also to live on something. What's more the sets are to be translated (some even vocal) in as many languages as possible. I sincerely hope the crew doesn't do anything imprudent that will jeopardize the free streaming.@@anastasiaburr3959

@@toritori5835 The crowdsourced funds only paid for the first two seasons. They've had to figure out how to produce the show for five more seasons in a financially sustainable way. 48 million seems like a lot of money, but that's a shoestring budget for a production of this scope. A comparable Netflix show like Stranger Things costs 270 MILLION dollars per season. It's MIRACULOUS that The Chosen has the high level of production value it has, on a 48 million dollar budget.

@@anastasiaburr3959 please look into the history 🤦🏻‍♂️ evangelicalism has only been around maybe 200 years at most… it’s insane that you think it’s superior to Catholicism which has been around for thousands 😂 read the early church fathers. Read history. It’s all well documented. Catholics are Christians. You don’t get to say they aren’t just because they aren’t evangelical….

Aaaw thank you! I'm definitely not the actress lol. But I write & narrate these videos :)

Little James said in interviews that he is christian but like Noah he doesn't practice that much

I wonder if there will be any conversions after they prepare and film the crucifixion. Watching that happen and being right there, although a re-enactment, I imagine would be very powerful to connecting to what Christ went through for us.

@@THXGODITSOVER see comment above

Yes, but Angel Studios and the gents who launched everything are LDS. And Evangelicals, in particular, get up in arms about that. So what happened is that Dallas Jenkins created his own little company for two reasons: 1) to white wash the question of the origins of the project (as it started as a project) and 2) to launch the possibility to claim distribution rights so he could make a boatload of cash. He knew it would be a legal issue but knew whatever he pays in it, he’ll still have made countless riches beyond whatever it costs. Evangelicals are very concerned that Mormons are going to make money off of this venture when in reality the person making money off of it is Dallas. The creators of The Chosen crowd sourced productions costs. They were then going to download the series to an app. People could stream the series using the app anywhere in the world. As well, it was thought that if people wanted to see it in a more theater-like setting, local churches could do that via the app. So the two Mormon men who started this whole shabang were doing it as a non-profit venture. But after creating his own company and claiming distribution rights, Jenkins has sold the series to streaming services like Amazon. And he has distributed it in movie theaters through Fathom Events. Did you know that the first weekend in theaters (with the first three episodes of season four) made $40 million? That’s not going to production costs or two actors or crew. It’s going to Jenkins and the company he founded. So that’s why there is now a lawsuit. Frankly, Angel Studios did a wonderful thing putting this out there. I’m a Christian, though no longer an evangelical. And I know that LDS theology is different in various areas. But when it comes to the Gospels, it’s the same. The ministry of Jesus during his 33 years in Israel under Roman rule in the 1st century is the same. So I don’t understand why Evangelicals get touchy about it.

Mormonism is not biblical and is a cult. You’re best running away from it and never looking back. Focus on Jesus

@@toritori5835 Because Mormons do not believe Jesus is God. They believe he is a created being, totally separate from God, and a brother to Lucifer. They believe he was raised to godhood because of his sacrificial death. The Jesus of the Mormons is not the Jesus of Christianity.

@@AlydiaRackham Excuse me, but where do you find this information? As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we believe, like most Christian denominations, in the Trinity. In God the Father, his Son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Spirit, beings who at the same time share the same purpose. Jesus' divine mission here on earth was part of God's Plan before the creation of this earth. Thinking that Jesus Christ is totally separated from God is something completely far from reality. I respectfully invite you to investigate the doctrine of the Church through reliable sources and not be carried away by false prejudices :)

We as a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and, We believe in God the Eternal Father and his Son Jesus Christ and in the Holy Ghost. Jesus Christ is the central God's plan for his children to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man. God reveled his identity through his Son Jesus Christ and their oneness in purpose.

Hard to believe they are so close to the story and would not embrace the truth. God is at work though.

I'm a faithful member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day saints and I just love love how this follows the new testament. It is so beautiful and many many members of our church.. which we are 100% Christians... Love and support this show. Please be kind of you respond.. it's what Jesus would do.

I think it just has something to do with her accent tbh I don't think she meant it that way

umm do you know what Christianity is?

Jesus loves you tho Repent and believe in the gospel ❤

I am deeply saddened that your people are being discriminated by the muslims so much. Hope one day you can live in peace.

The LDS church is non-trinitarian and heretical. You are NOT a christian.

Yes he is Hindu, unless he converted. I was able to pm him on Instagram when this first started. I asked him if I could ask a personal question, he said sure. I said, are you India and from north India. He said yes and asked how I knew. I said because of his last name and his hair. 😊 Most Indians have beautiful thick hair. Patel is not a Christian name. Catholics in India have last names like, Thomas, Matthew, George, and John. I learned that St Thomas the Apostle, evangelized in India, and was martyred there. Same way you know Hindu, by their name; i.e. Vivek Ramaswamy who ran for President.

Pray that the whole cast gets saved and worships Jesus in Spirit and in Truth 🙏🏾

Well that’s definitely not true. Jonathan definitely is

@@liamblumeris6933 Half the internet fights over whether one should be a born-again Christian or a Catholic Christian, and the Jonathan Roumie shows up and says "I'm a born-again Catholic Christian." ... And eveyone goes - "What just happened?"

Gaius is a strong believer as is Zebedee, as you can tell from their interviews. They are born again, and so is Jonathan. Their confessions of Christ are clear.

Bardzo ciekawe! Daj znać, dzie o tym czytałeś, interesuje mnie ta postać

Calm down and re-listen to what she said. She said she was kidding but they as actors and how they believe should be discussed. You should really listen before jumping to something.

Mormons are no seekers of the truth. Being the 6th generation doesnt mean they dont believe in the basic believes anymore. This is no Christianity

Hey there! Just wanted to say, Wikipedia is the worst place to get info on them. Some of what’s on there may be true but honestly, a lot could be wrong or twisted as it is a website that can be added/edited by anyone with info on any given subject. If you want the real info on them, go to the church website. There’s a lot of information out there that’s not correct so it’s usually better to go to the source. Also, if you are referring to Utah as their own state in the US, ha! Yeah it’s full of members and there are members in state government and such but good joke!

Genuine question why do you Americans think communism is a bad thing

@@joshuajohn74 It's not just about Americans, it's about Christianity in general. Communists and Christians typically don't get along for a number of reasons. They have a few similar goals about helping the poor, but that's about it.

@@gunsgalore7571 capitalism and chrisitnaity are in two opposites though theyve got absolutly nothing in common

@@joshuajohn74 No, capitalism and Christianity have a few points of conflict, but they do line up better than Christianity and communism. The reason why is that most forms of Christianity recognize private property. In other words, Christianity recognizes that people can and should own their own things rather than everything being owned in common. Take, for example, how Christian charities work. Rich people who own a lot of things willingly give some of those things to poor people, and now poor people own those things. The rich people have a right to their property, no one can take it from them, and they must give it up willingly. And even after they give it up, it does not become everyone's, it now belongs to the specific poor person that they gave that thing to, whether it was some food, money, clothing, etc. In communism, no one owns anything. Everything is owned by the collect. This is totally different from Christianity, which has private property. Don't think that capitalism always means the same thing. It is not always greedy billionaires on private jets. It is also mom-and-pop feed stores, welders, mechanics, etc. It's anywhere where people own their own things. Even if the rich people willingly give lots of their stuff to poor people, it's still capitalism. In this light, Christianity is inherently capitalistic,

@gunsgalore7571 genuine question but is any of the things you said from any of the 4 gospels or are they from the sub books

LDS Mormons are not evangelical Protestant biblical Christians. The theology is completely different, do your research.

@@rogeragness226 Our great commonality is this "eternal"' truth: Evangelicals certainly believe in the Savior Jesus Christ---and "dear broth"--so do we LDS (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints) The likeness-is obvious--and we share that great Christian love. I you thought differently---I'm sorry. We know He is here, w know He gave all for us--we know He is the Son of God. So if you evangelicals disagree with those truths--I'm not sure what your mind is not grasping. Best wishes, love you & what a great life--knowing Him
