I have been seeing some posts by believers that the Netflix's Gay Jesus does not matter and doesn't mean anything; it won't affect us. 'Jesus won't be affected.' 'Netflix is too small'. For God's sake! When are we going to learn?!!!
We are always denying issues that affects us and keep up with our church programs as if we are not influenced by the spheres of influences. Entertainment is a valid sphere of influence, but we keep denying it. We say it doesn't matter. Movies matters! They influence us!
Movie is a way to influence man and this particular one is aimed at the church and intending church members. It may not affect you, but what about many thousands (if not millions) that have not read the bible in their life in the West and the fast rising 'woke' generation of thinkers in Africa.
That's film will form a basis for thinking patterns of many. Some are just getting to know about Jesus and that film may be their first contact about Jesus. Joel described them as 'multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision'.
It is not everyone that knows Jesus like you do. Many families in USA do not have bibles. Churches have become game houses in UK. Apostasy is rising in developing countries. Hardly can you come online and you won't see a post by a person who used to be a believer.
The impact of Dan Brown's writings is still on ground. Many did not recover from Da Vinci's Code. It ship wrecked their faith! Gay Jesus should, at the least, bother us. It's even big enough to pray about. It's called passion for souls!
