The Chosen Netflix series

Yes, I saw it, but this one is a series, and I believe the characters' portrayals of Jesus differ. He is typically portrayed as a very devout and serious man in earlier films. Even though he has divine abilities, he is portrayed here as an ordinary human. He joins in parties, makes his sermons humorous, and even breaks down in tears with his mother when he's frustrated. He illustrates the challenges that we face on a daily basis as humans. In previous movies they usually depict him as a very serious and holy man. But here he is depicted like a normal human but with divine powers. He enjoys life by joining in parties, has a sense of humor in his sermons, even cries with his mother out of frustration,. He shows what we humans encounter as human being does in everyday lives.

@allknowing That is true and it really is what we all see, that Christ is much more approachable and relatable since he acts like we normal humans are and not something special. I also think Christ lived a normal human life. One that can become happy, sad, angry and frustrated and not something as very serious.

@rsa101 That 'one among us' will be effective as that is what will impress the viewers. How He overcomes situations that you and I face will be a learning process fo the viewers

@rakski Around 8 eps that is more or an hour per eps. That means you’ll be on a very ling binge watching it.

You should start now its 5 seasons already.

@rsa101 oh my, how many episodes are there in each season?

You should watch it differently portrayed Jesus as very human. While the apostles are also depicted differently.

@rsa101 I will try to search for it.

Yes the depiction was very human and i think that made me think also that many of what we do was dictated by humans to control us in the way they do things to praise God. But God only wants us to believe in Him and trust Him. Loving others as we love ourselves. That’s the central theme of it all.

@rsa101 There is no way our good deeds can make us all to heaven without accepting who God is in our life, and that He is the only living God, creator and savior of mankind. There is no requirement, we just need to ask for forgiveness, just come as you are, just like the thief who was hang on the cross with him, and asked him to bring him to heaven with him.

I see are you referring to Netflix?

Yes if you have interest about Jesus it is one of the best one to watch there.

@rsa101 Yes I love religious movies/webseries

I'm happy that it's broadcast because it might attract a larger audience there. I find the story intriguing because Jesus is shown to be fairly human by playing with friends, attending social events, and expressing his frustrations with his mother. That is different from how we portray him in our faith, and it may even be true in some respects.h his mom. That's something new and perhaps true in some ways than what we portray him ib our faith.

Yes I like set endings too. It brings in closure to a storyline.

Oh me too just finished watching this as well. This one is quite long already as it has outlasted many series.

If you are Christian, it might spark your interest in watching it.
