    You are not wrong

I haven't watched it yet, but I'm sure it's full of discussion about that scene and the answer Jesus gave to little James was apparently comforting to this man in the video.


    Wow

    I haven't watched The Chosen, or this video (yet) but I ran across it and I think it deals with some of what you guys are talking about.

    Is 'The Chosen' Biblical? | Guest: Dallas Jenkins | Ep 726

    50 Min.

    Today we're joined by Dallas Jenkins, creator and writer/director/producer of "The Chosen," the first multi-season show on the life of Jesus. We talk about his career in filmmaking and how a career failure led to an important lesson that changed his life. He shares why he created the show and why it seems to resonate so deeply with people. Then, we discuss how much work truly goes into writing a show that uses the Bible as its source. The goal, for Dallas, is to ask, "What is biblically plausible?" as he gets insight from biblical, historical, and cultural scholars to craft the characters. We discuss criticism of the show, much of which has centered around skepticism about LDS involvement in the show's distribution. And ultimately Dallas reminds us that while "The Chosen" is based on the Bible and the life of Jesus and his disciples, it doesn't claim to be the Bible, as only the Bible itself is the true authority.

    You can watch the third season of "The Chosen" on the Chosen app.

    Well the ridiculousness of the whole scene is that Jesus is telling this to little John, explaining why he's not healed, and yet JESUS HEALED THEM ALL. It was pretty ridiculous, but their way of sticking in that doctrine that is opposed to what the Bible really teaches. But I really haven't had a problem with anything per se up until this point. Just out of the clear blue. Also, Jesus has two friends of the minisrty, and i think the wife is blind. I keep wondering out loud to my wife when He is going to heal her. After this I'm not sure He is. lol.

    One more point: JESUS NEVER FAILED TO HEAL ANYONE THAT CAME TO HIM FOR HEALING. And that includes Nazareth. He healed a few sick folk there, THOSE WERE THE ONES THAT CAME TO HIM FOR HEALING. Unbelief kept the others from coming to Him for healing. It wasn't He laid hands on them and their unbelief kept them from being healed. There is no example of that in the Bible unless you interpret the Nazareth passage wrong. Which many interpret it that way. Jesus healed thousands of people in crowds, HE HEALED THEM ALL. There wasn't one person in those crowds that didn't have unbelief, sin, unforgiveness, etc? Sure there was, but they got healed. The point is if you had enough faith to come to Jesus for healing you would be healed regardless. The only kind of unbelief would be the unbelief like in Nazareth where it kept them from coming to Him to be healed because of their familiarity with Him growing up.

    It will not keep me from watching but it almost angers me. Addressing doctrine which is not even addressed at all in the gospels and you're wrong at that. Not sure why they felt the need to do this, but then again I think I can figure it out.

    It's "community church" theology. I know, I pastored one for 2 years. Most dont and wont read bibles with the intent to learn the meaning.

    Video of Dr Brown talking about that scene in the video where Jesus tells little James it's not His will to heal him. Basically the same things I said above. One of his staff sent it to Michael Brown to see what he thought. Starts around 4:50. A little disjointed editing but just keep watching.
