“In this world, bones will still break. Hearts will still break.” That’s a line from Season 2, but it’s especially true of Season 4, Episode Three. This one’s hard to watch, but we did it together and then talked it over afterwards.
- EPISODE THREE, “MOON TO BLOOD”: When Jesus heals a blind man on the Sabbath, religious leaders confront him, drawing a riotous crowd. Gaius defies a direct order leading Quintus to take matters-and someone’s life-into his own hands.
- A talk we had to have with JOEY VAHEDI (Thomas) and YASMINE AL-BUSTAMI (Ramah) about how this episode has affected them
- NEW GIFT inspired by one of the hardest-hitting moments in the episode
- YOUR PREVIEW of Episode 4, coming June 13th - Розваги
Peter giving comfort to Thomas shows growth in His understanding. He lost a baby and had to wrestle with the fact that Jesus didn’t prevent it. Now Peter comforts Thomas.
Wow good revelation! Thank you for this - now I understand better
Amen!!! I thought the same thing!
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.
For as we share abundantly in Christ's sufferings, so through Christ we share abundantly in comfort too
2 Corinthians 1:3-5

I can see Thomas reacting during Lazarus's resurrection the same way Peter did at the 5000
Not my Yeshua!
Cried on my walk tonight after the Chosen. Those prayers that are answered in "not now" or "not my will" are so painful, but God is faithful and His promises are true.
His will is perfect, and ours is impatient and selfish;by nature. That's why we are like WHY?! We see things linear and limited but if by grace we do get to see the other side,down the road you will find the purpose in the disappointment.
Amen 🙏
God is a figment of man’s imagination.
@@WynHayes I've always wondered why some experience God and others don't? I doubt that is because some have a big imagination and others don't. I doubt that's the reason?
That was not in the Bible.
Can you imagine being blind and then having sight and the first thing you see is Jesus, and he smiles and says “I got you” !
😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
My sister experienced horrible suffering before she died of liver cancer. The Chosen has provided solace.
As a mother who lost her 26-year-old daughter in 2022 to brain cancer, I have been deeply grateful for The Chosen for how you portray suffering. I have never felt more seen and heard. When Jesus says no is the hardest of roads to walk. But yet I was given no choice. Thank you to the writers of The Chosen for seeing me.
May God bless you always.
God bless you 🙏 ❤❤
My cousin is 20, and on December 22nd, they diagnosed her with brain cancer. The doctors had to operate on her because she was bleeding to her brain. She already has 3 rounds of chemotherapy, 6 weeks of radiation, and she's starting 3 more rounds of chemo. She's in good spirit and trusting God.
That God will keep blessing you
If youre willing to receive, In sending you the energy of love in my heart 💞👼🙏
So sorry for you loss😢❤
The Chosen needs to be on TV every day... From the Old to the New Testament!
I would love to see the old testament chosen.
It would be nice.
I'd love to see this company produce something about the life of David! I've seen many movies, but nothing like The Chosen team does! I identify greatly with David & Paul. Thank God for His Grace! 💞
Jesus in times of Noah ? :D
Agree!!!
My partner of 24 years has terminal liver cancer. He has suffered for 3 years and throughout that time he has firmly believed that God will heal him. He has Covid now and is struggling to stay alive as he is not ready to go home to the Lord. He has fought the good fight and has kept the faith, but God has not healed him. It is hard to stand by and see someone suffer so much. But we both cling to the goodness and faithfulness of God.
I was so proud of Gaius in this episode...he stood his ground.
EDIT: My partner passed away peacefully yesterday. Thank you to those who responded kindly. We were never in a state of sin.
What does "partner" mean?
May you and your partner know and feel that Christ is with you throughout this journey, crying with you about any suffering, rejoicing in your trust in Him!! Wishing you lots of courage and strength.
Romans 15:13
Believing for healing and strength for you both
I am so very sorry that you and your husband are going through this. I pray Gods peace, which passes all understanding, be near and with you all right now.
I'm sorry but I'm not Being Gay is a SIN and if you change your life and you partner changes his repentance will save you
I’m struggling right now.
My daughter in-law is slowly and painfully dying from brain and uterus cancer.
We all need prayers that she doesn’t suffer anymore.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
As a start point, can I point you to a video you can find Art Thomas video : 10 things Jesus never said about healing. Then look up some teaching from Andrew Wommack, Curry Blake etc. Kathryn Krick. Jesus has healing for ALL who come to Him. Just mostly us the people (and those who are shepherds) do not - or are not willing - to take the risks and humility to see healing happen for more. Find believers who will believe for healing for her. Sometimes what we say is Him saying "Not My will" is actually us (or leaders) making excuses for our lack of faith. And we ought not to be condemned over a lack of faith, because faith comes by hearing....So a lack of faith/results is not something to feel condemned about, as it is something we can do something about by hearing & feeding our tiny faith with God's truth about healing, and we will receive. We just often give up too easily. Faith comes by hearing....She can still hear, so fill her room with faith, healing & worship & healing scriptures. Blessings. Salvation from the cross includes healing.
She will not suffer anymore!! God is with her.
Praying for comfort
Sending prayers& aloha.
My heart goes out to you. It is a pain I wouldn't wish on anyone. Thank God we have hope in Jesus.
Love how Gaius refused to arrest Jesus no matter the cost ❤
Me too. I cheered when he said no.👏👏
He’s going to get out… he’s got to get out.
He’s gonna get out, right?
Way to stand up, Gaius!
Is he not the biblical centurion that Simon Peter baptises after Jesus ascension?
@@Castedlots Gaius is the centurion who asks for his servant to be healed
"One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I see."
And then Jairus's little air punch of a silent "YES!!" was awesome! Hehehe
I love this statement
Yes, it is a beautiful statement. The one thing that troubles me is that Jesus says the blind wasn’t blind for his sins, nor his parent’s sins, but for the God work to be revealed…
How about the blind and his family? They suffered all these years so Gods work would be revealed? We are pawns in Gods hands?
A very special and poignant line.
@@isaactheworshipwarrior6687 Haha - yeah, more than half the show it seems the Bible is made into the style of Dallas' The Chosen. But in the spirit of that quote and its punchiness, it is as if the Bible was The Chosen. And simply begging for that type of response.
I was waiting for the "Have I been with you so long, Phillip, and yet you have not known me?" chapter. But that would be playing too many tricks with Dallas, the Scriptwriter.
@@euamoflash A greater question seeks a greater answer. I have a hunch that the answer isn't specific to the micro-situation - but about the historical-covenantal situation spanning all biological history.
"How about the blind and his family? They suffered all these years so Gods work would be revealed? We are pawns in Gods hands?"
I'm a physician and ask for HIS HELP every day!!
In my 30 years as a nurse, I only once had a doctor take me to the bedside to pray for a patient and I will always remember that compassion and faith. Bless you 🙏
❤❤❤❤❤❤I AM SO HAPPY TO HEAR THAT!!! BORN AGAIN CHRISTIAN. BELIEVER! ANY KIND OF FAITH LOVE FOR THE LORD AN BEING A DR. IS SOOO RARE. ❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏IM SO HAPPY TO HEAR THAT. AN THE NURSE WHO REPLYED. WISH THEIR WERE MORE. GLAD TO KNOW GOD BLESS U BOTH🙏😍😍🙏
As a critic of the death scene of Ramah, I have one final thought after seeing this episode on TV. Jesus said, "It is not her time." Meaning, it is not her time for resurrection. Perhaps, on the day of Jesus' resurrection, in the movie/story, Ramah then will be resurrected, along with other "saints" (biblical). All this for the glory of God! Perhaps this day of resurrection for Ramah will be pivotal for Thomas's belief in Jesus. I can only hope.... that some good will come from that horrific death scene. One other thing I would like to say - Jasmine is an amazing actress. She did a fantastic job portraying Ramah. She has a wonderful career ahead of her. Thank you, Jasmine for your dedication to this project. It did not go unnoticed nor unappreciated.
That is a really smart idea… it would make so much sense if she was one of the resurrected saints! Wow! The one problem I had with her death in this episode was that Jesus told Thomas he would marry them. So if she comes back, that would mean Jesus kept His word.
@@gigahorse1475 I don't remember him expressly saying he would marry them. Think he said let's see what happens after this trip or something to that effect. So in essence he told them he was okay with the intent of their union but not that they would actually get married.
I think so too, but in the short term I think this death scene and Jesus lack of awareness that it happened shows how inconsistent the show portrays Jesus. He heals Eden's mother of a fever but leaves her to suffer a miscarriage and provokes Simon to abject disrespect of the miracle of the loaves and fish as Jesus ignores his plight entirely.
Ramah's death and Jesus' response to it is inconsistent with the Jesus of the Bible. The bible says in multiple places that Jesus healed ALL who were sick and came to him. How can the disciples possibly trust him after this tragic scene, where he looks up to the Father in heaven and gets a "no". I am not sure how this season will recover from this confusion and disappointment. We'll see. So yes, I too am a critic of this death scene, because it portrays Jesus as flaky and not truly willing to save and heal.
@@RebeccaBosch07 Agreed. Also, this episode 100% conflicts with John 18:9. This series falls flat on it's face over and over.
This makes the reality of christian persecution real,because our brothers and sisters are being killed for the Gospel in other countries 😢
Absolutely 💯 😮❤
True but don’t forget how Christians murdered and persecuted people that weren’t Christian the same way aka the crusades
Yes, very important for the global Christian community to understand.
Except she wasn’t killed over that. She was killed because Thomas had bumped Quintus and Quintus went to kill him but got her in the middle.
It's been like that since the 1st century & I don't think it will stop until Christ returns. Stay strong in Christ.
My only daughter died on July 21, 2023. She had her 5th chemo tx and was dead in 48 hours. She is not suffering now. We prayed for healing and for her to be whole. She is wonderfully healed and whole. Her body could no longer sustain life, and in love and mercy He took her home. As far as Ramah, it is happening everyday since Ham came off the mountain. Young virgins and innocents are dying needlessly everyday. It happened over and over in his time and history. That is biblical too. If all the things Christ did were written, the earth and the heavens couldn't hold the books. The child on baal's alter was innocent. You handled that masterfully. If you know, you know. As a Mother that has lost her child, believe me, Ramah's fictional death makes sense.
So sorry for your loss. And thank you for the beautiful testimony that came from it. Continue to grow in the lord.
I agree this is the reality of the broken world we live in!! Praise be to our Lord and savior Jesus Christ 🙏🏻 🙌🏻 who is close to the broken hearted, binds our wounds, and gives us beauty for ashes 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙌🏻❤️
They are de4d to this world. But have awaken in the next. Weep for a season then refocus on your path, God planned for you. Find comfort in "God's WILL be done."
My heart goes out to you and I am so sorry for your loss. What a strong woman of God you are. God Bless .
I'm very sorry for your loss.
There is nothing "unfair" at the end of this episode. It would ONLY be so if this life were the only one we were to see. It is not. We will have an eternity together. All of us who have lost many in our lives, but we will see them again, thanks be to God.
I really, really, really hope that's true. I just want to hug my son again. Sometimes I just think we cope thinking this is not the end. Otherwise this world would be living hell
@@user-bl4lf9rg8m It IS true. God has promised through His word and Jesus is the risen evidence. He defeated death and hundreds saw Him, spoke with Him and ate with Him. Jesus's resurrection is the most important evidence to demonstrate God's faithfulness. I will pray for you.
I would argue that six or seven minutes of what normally is an hour or more show is pretty damned unfair.
My good friend and I saw this episode in theatres together. We both lost a very close mutual friend two years prior, very unexpectedly. I don’t think we both knew just how little we had healed from that trauma until this episode was watched. There were no words, just pure and unfiltered emotion that poured out of the both of us. We held hands and sobbed.
There was truth to what was said. It wasn’t my friend’s time, but it was God’s plan all along. As hard and impossible to feel like that was the truth, God gives and He takes away for a reason! Seeing Jesus say those words to Thomas was like finally getting the comfort my heart was so desperately searching for since her death.
I am so thankful for the Chosen not shying away from the harsh reality that is deep loss. This is God showing His love and comfort in areas of life that no other thing in this lifetime could come close to healing ❤️ From the very bottom of my now healing heart, thank you!!
It’s hard to lose another life
It's so good to see that. I just read someone saying The chosen is getting off the rails because of this choice, because Jesus would rase everyone who died. And i don't think that's true, not in his time and not in our life.
Edit : I know that nobody important that works for the show will see my comment. Please know this show changed my life. Thank you. 🙏🏼❤️🕊️
You are wrong. God sees your comment and He loves you.
I am important and so are you. Thank you for posting your comments.
I see you 😊
🤷♂️ Perhaps your view on who's *important* needs to change.
It helped to me too!
We need to trust The Lord and remember we are travelers on our way home. Thank you, The Lord is leading you.
Satan is leading him.
Wow this was hard to watch
@maureennanoo9046 Having lost a child and having those earnest prayers not answered in the way we had hoped, this indeed was a hard episode. Very emotional 😢
Hello From Nigeria, Ayoola we see you, thank you for being a part of this great story!
I absolutely love this show. I'm a born again believer. Pray for our country and our leaders.
I lost my daddy last year. He was only 51. I've struggled with it a lot. It's very traumatic watching someone you love slowly pass away when you put all your faith in a miracle happening. When Reyna said all she wanted was for Thomas to still follow Jesus, it really resonated with me because my mama told me she didn't want me to blame God. She didn't want me to leave Him or lose my relationship with Him. The last words my daddy said to me were, "Don't cry." Almost a year later, I was reading a Bible story to my son and it was the widow who's son had died and Jesus had come up to her and He said, "Don't cry", and then raised her son from the dead. Idk if I'm right about this, but I always felt like this was God speaking through my daddy. Also, Ramah is so beautiful! I think Thomas is going to have a very hard time when Jesus raises Lazarus. When Jesus was walking to them when Ramah was stabbed, I was saying, "Please, Jesus, save her!" It's so sad, but I feel like this scene is going to resonate with a lot of people who have lost loved ones.❤
That’s a very good point. I didn’t even think of that, how Thomas would feel about when he saw Jesus raising more and more ppl from the dead…
I experienced the same when I lost my Dad, and this brought back the time when our family lost him and eventually Mom. When we lost Dad I was angry because my Dad was a pastor, I didn't think he wouldn't pass away but the Lord took him home I had to find peace and ask Jesus to forgive my anger. I know I will see both my parents again, I have peace knowing where they are. Death is hard and living without your loved ones is not easy! I still miss them, but I know they are with our Lord and savior Jesus and they are healed and not suffering.
One commenter on this episode said something like this: “Evil causes death”. Think about the scene again: Evil got into Quintus out of rage and knifed Rahyma. And if I may add - Our life was planned from the day we were conceived…
absolutely...nothing ever dies... God is the Supreme Creator and whilst we are soooo limited in this lifetime, I hereby acknowledge and profess. He sees all, knows all and is All...We will all see and be with our loved ones..it's not a matter of if...it's only a matter of when...Much Love to you DestineyJenkins...
I lost my mother when she was 64 years old, I was heartbroken for many years. She’s been gone 21 years now, but I know she’s in heaven, and I will meet her again one day and then it will be forever. I pray for all The people that have lost loved ones. For God to give them peace and knowing they will see them again one day and that will be forever God bless all of you
Jesus obeys the Father in all things, even though he himself with human nature weeps and cries for the suffering of people.
Well said
This was my second time watching Episode 3. Once in the Theater where I sat motionless with tears streaming down my face when I saw this scene. Others watching were also motionless in a dark Theater. It was the shock of it all & the sorrow of losing Ramah in such a violent way after they were so excited to be wed. My heart 💔. I saw it again & I had the same reaction. Tears freely escaped my eyes & rolled down my cheeks. Even though I'd already seen this scene, it was still that impactful on me. I'm happy that we had an explanation this time around. I still say the writting for Season 4 is truly moving & I already have my hoodie "I'm Just Getting Started" my DVD of season 4 & so much more. I felt I needed the beautiful artwork of Jesus grabbing the hand...never going to let you go that I look at everyday. I needed that right now! My bestfriend's life was ended in a similar way except she was facing forward. I held her in my arms & she told me she was passing I reacted as Thomas did. She was 17. So this scene was a difficult one for me to say the least. I miss her everyday. She was like my sister & now she's my angel in heaven. Amen 🙏 🕊🕯💜🛐
Murder is a horrible sin and judgment is necessary. Nowhere in scripture does the Lord raise a murder victim. He cures diseases, illnesses, raises some who died from them. Guessing the whole thing with Rhama and Thomas in many of the episodes is to illustrate the differences, and especially just how wrong murder truly is. No doubt there will be more to see as Thomas witnesses the Lord raise Lazarus. Why him and not Rhama.
How heart wrenching....to watch Jesus' reaction of pain for Thomas....to ache for Thomas...to watch them all trying to make sense of it.
the chosen has changed my life, and led me into finally following the road to Jesus
Now your testimony will change ours!!! ❤
Same! I'm so happy for you
May God bless whomsoever happens to read this
And may GOD bless the "blesser" back❤❤❤🙏✝️🙏
May God Bless you too and keep you always.
May JESUS CHRIST bless you.
may he bless you too❤️
May God bless you as well, Thank you ❤
For some reason this is only showing 12 minutes. Anyone else having the same issue?
Reading the comments, I'm truly grateful to God for the impact this show is having on the lives of believers all over the world... His name be exalted and Glorified forever.
And I want to say a big thank you to everyone involved in the show, thank you for agreeing to partner with God to impact His people, I pray the good lord bless you in every way in Jesus Name
We have to accept the good and difficult parts of walking with Christ. Note how no one was bothered by the fictional aspect of Rema and Thomas love story and engagement but we are ruffled by the death, which is also fictional. Why? Because it highlights these tensions that we dislike to face as a Believers but these moments are parts of life. This is why we have gotten so far from lament instead of allowing that to push us towards God. This was beautifully done ❤️
Very insightful. You are right.
Beautifully said. May Christ be with you.
Well said.
Well said!
So true!
Perfect opening with David and Bathsheba to the ending with Thomas and Ramah. Bittersweet.
The frustrating part is that David deserved everything he got, Thomas did not. David was an adulterous murderer, people seem to forget that a lot.
@@nathanieladams7624we don’t deserve anything but death. David and Thomas included. Jesus paid it all, all to him we owe.
@@kia.kikiiiI disagree, there are many verses stating “You reap what you Sow.” Just because you believe in Jesus doesn’t make you not accountable for your actions in life.
@@nathanieladams7624 absolutely I agree. The point of the episode which I’m assuming the scene with David parallels the tragedy at the end, is that God allows suffering and we don’t always know why. David sinned against God, does that mean an innocent baby should die? Shouldn’t David have died? Questions we can’t answer. I’m still wrapping my head around this episode so I hear you.
Praying that u may get the true answer ... remember Satan is a liar...he is confusing people so that he hides the truth from us... Follow the Truth and light...❤❤❤@@nathanieladams7624
I lost my almost 2yr old sister to leukemia. My grandfather said therè was a pupose in her short life that we didn't see. When I grew up I became a research RN and saw the purpose of my sister's life . By participating in clinical trials ìn the 60's the chemo she trialed was found effective and saved the lives of many children with leukemia after her. Thank God!❤
I am grateful for everything that The Chosen team produce and the fact that it is all free, is amazing. However, for me watching this episode, I personally do not believe that Jesus would have been more concerned with winning an argument with the Pharisees than the welfare of the people around him. That demonstrates pride, that is not my God. I understand how this can be used for the future script in relation to 'Doubting Thomas' but I feel that the storyline has been focused on achieving the desired development of Thomas' character over the Truth of Jesus' character. Yes He allows suffering to endure as it is all part of a greater plan He only knows but he also protects.
People around him weren't in danger. The romans were only after him, they wanted him arrested. You could arguee that he knew that Ramah would get lost and stabbed becajse of what he caused but honestly...we will never knlw whay he knew and what he didn't. It's part of his mystery.
Plus:He wasn't worried in winning an argument, he was preaching to the pharisses, something he did all the time. Have you read the bible? It's always present in his ministery. To call what Jesus did with the pharisses winning an argument is the same as saying the sky is blue when it's dark.
A woman screamed behind him when he was talking in a frustrated manner about scripture, suppose you could call that preaching but the emotions between them seem like they are in a debate . I said winning an argument because the Pharasees were arguing with him. The crowds were moving, everyone was shouting. I just do not think that that would have been ignored by the character of Jesus because he would have been able to hear and even sense the commotion around him. I am not writing for an argument, I respect your view and I agree if he knew that Ramah would die, we would never know if he would have known this
After watching this episode, I recalled Jesus’ words, “Take up your cross and follow me.” God is all powerful but that doesn’t mean suffering is not part of life. Trials, hardship, and suffering draw us to God and this episode brought that truth to me.
When I found out what would happen to Remah months ago, I got to think Jesus might show me this episode when my grandmother is with Him and I need comfort. I was right. My grandmother went to Jesus and I got to see this episode in a day after that. She is with our King and Lord in peace, happiness, and great health.
Thank you for telling us the truth which is we all will meet them in Heaven if we follow Jesus. We will come to them and be with them and Jesus FOREVER!
Thank Our Lord Jesus for the opportunity to do that! He loves us so much that he died instead of us so we can live forever with God and our loved ones!
This is not the truth. The King would never abandon his disciples to flee and than leave one to bleed out. This is complete blasphemy,
@@corey_deroche You miss the meaning and point
😢so sorry for the loss of your loved one.
@@jackisears367 Thank you very much. Even when it hurts, I have confidence in Jesus Christ that I will meet her. But thank you for your kind heart. May Jesus always comforts you and you always will be loved. Jesus loves you!
@@corey_derocheit’s blasphemy to say that God would never say no to healing someone
The only issue I have with this episode is how Jesus stood at a distance while she died. This was completely out of character for him, both in scripture and how he is portrayed in this show. She was one of his followers. If he knelt by her side and comforted her and prayed over her, THAT would have been in line with his character. Very strange.
Well, she is dying, quickly, it was more important, for the story to have her last moments with Thomas. It was done very appropriately and true to who Jesus is. He allows suffering. If He would have comforted Rayma, then people would say, “don’t comfort her, just heal her, 😧. Good job Dallas
Got it. However, please be careful with phrasing it as “Allows” suffering. He could have stopped or prevented it, but chose not to.
He probably gave her full graces while passing away. He was giving Thomas and Rama her last moment together on earth
Take these shows with a grain of salt. God said not to add or subtract from his word. This show and the directors and cast members will have to stand before him with judgment. Those who defend this are guilty as well. No one is without sin but to know, and to do is sin!! These people are wolves in sheep clothing and keeping the ones who defend this in darkness! But a lot of people like this lukewarm stuff and it’s only because they’re lukewarm!!! Take it up with God and his word not me I’m just speaking from what the Most High has written for us to know! If you want to disagree show scripture please! With a Godly understanding not your own or what you learned from pastors who got his license on God law in bible college! I’m humbly blessed, and thankful that I don’t have itching ears.
Anyone else crying their eyes out???? Powerful...I felt like I was there ...very palpable emotions!!!
Boy, I'll never forget seeing this episode in the theater. When the credits started i literally screamed out, THEYRE GONNA END IT THERE??!!!
And then, because I went there alone I had to wait for NY brother to pick me up. But I waited st that theater for like 15 minutes, not saying a word, just shaken by the fact that they killed one of Jesus's fictional followers like that.
But still, as sad as it was, it was delivered beautifully. And I hold firmly on the belief that, Jesus didn't heal her, because God allows what he does.
My Son had aggressive stomach cancer. We prayed that he would be healed. He left us 9 months ago after all treatments failed and his body could no longer sustain life. It was the most heartbreaking pain a mother could experience. We trusted God through it and I thought of Mary quite a lot, knowing what she faced. I had a period of confusion after that, not understanding why didn't God answer our prayers and heal him. I have since come to realize that trusting God means even when the outcome isn't what I'd hoped for and I trust that God has a bigger plan. So many people suffer, even children and babies.
🫂💐🌹🕊️
So sorry for your loss. May God comfort and may you be reunited in that great resurrection.
I’m sorry for your suffering. It’s difficult to say ‘yes’ to all things life brings us. Yet, what choice do we really have? Amidst our grief the sun still rises every day. Life has a way of grabbing hold of us and pulling us along anyway. I’m sorry. God bless you.
@@sokay8076 Thank you ❤
@@mR-dc4oq Thank you ❤
The chosen changed my life and brought me closer to Jesus Christ to be a born again Christian. The surprising moment for me was at a counselling session at the Divine Mercy Retreat, the counsellor had a vision about me watching The Chosen, and the Holy Spirit told her to tell me, that The Chose series will strengthen by walk with Jesus and that I need to learn to be still (Exodus 14:14:) I met her (the counsellor) for first time, but everything she told me was spot on and days later I received the Gift of Grace from Our Lord Jesus Christ, today, with less effort I get more done and life has never been the same. Not a day goes by without me spending time with Jesus, walking with Him, talking to Him and being guided by the Holy Spirit. I am so thankful and grateful for Dallas Jenkins, Jonathan Roumie and the entire team for bring this to me and us and I continue to rewatch it and recommend it to everyone struggling to find peace no matter what religion you are from. Jesus Christ calls all to surrender all our burden to Him and He will Give us Peace.
The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). - Jesus
3 yrs ago my 40 yr old son (my first born) with no health issues suddenly fell to the floor unconscious After an hour st a nesr by hospital was sent to the nearest trauma hospitsl 2 hours away He was bleeding from his brain stem & died 2 days later. I was able to fly where he was before he passed God blessed me each morning with a worship song in my heart I could feel His love & still do This episode of the Chosen was wonderful
Oh God bless you to lose a child is heartbreaking. God is walking with you always. God Bless.
Godspeed m'lady. Praying for you this night.
Masterfully protrayed. Having lost a child, a young husband and a grandson I can relate full y to all the pain and emotions. One will never be the same, but trusting in God and keeping the faith will heal you.

@@noraryan2908😢😢
I saw the first 3 episodes of Season 4 in the theater with my closest friend who like me have experienced the hardest kind of loss of loved one in the past few years, we couldn’t leave after the episode was over, we just sobbed. We have experienced deep grief but also the indescribable peace and faithfulness of God. He brought more healing that night, thank you Father for your love and kindness in our times of grief.
Thank you for sharing that!
I felt that ending ... clenched my stomach as though the sword that went through Rema pierced me too. Could hardly breathe...
oh wow!..yes, EXACTLY...SAME here!..God bless you!!..🙏😇
Thank you and God bless you!
I lost my last three children: stillborn, miscarriage, and early death. It was HARD. The pros of dealing with loss as a Christian is that we know we will see them again. The HUGE con is that we serve a God who could have fixed it….but who didn’t. The only truth I found to cling to is that our faith needs to be in who he IS, not what he DOES.
🫂💗🌹🌹💐
What a wonderful strong woman of God you are. Sending you my sympathies and may God Bless you in your life journey .
❤
Oh, preach!!! Preach!!! That hits so hard!!!
I cannot imagine the burden of your loss. Praise God that His Spirit preserved your faith. May He bless you and restore the years the locusts have eaten.
I'm very sorry for your losses.
I believe Jesus allows us to suffer to teach us something we need to learn also suffering can bring a person closer to him.
In this you have to be strong and trusting the lord jesus christ ❤❤
Do you have a new testament new covenant scripture reference or just what your own reasoning is? Actually it says "Jesus went around healing ALL who were oppressed of the devil"
Don't buy into this bullshit. They are just using drama to increase their donations.
@@sunnydayzie1202 “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.” James 1:12, i mean it says in both old and new testament that suffering produces endurance, strengthens our faith, and teaches us lessons, which bring us closer to God
@@sunnydayzie1202 also, “Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.” Romans 5:3-4
I feel like this ended all wrong!😢 All this brought to my mind is the reassuring fact that Jesus never attended a funeral that he didn't raise someone from the dead. Wherever the Lord Jesus is, there is hope! 🙌
but He did mourn for his cousin John the Baptizer, whom He did not raise from the dead
@johanne577 Yes, but he was not present for that event. Also, JTB was a prophet sent to forerun the coming of the Messiah. He knew that he must decrease so that He could increase; otherwise, it would cause division or confusion among his followers. Many prophets were so God-like to the people they tended to worship them instead.
@@tammysmith5528 but Jesus would have known about the impending beheading, and could have gone there ahead in time to save his cousin. But He did not. In any case, He can send a mere thought and JTB would be saved. But He did not.
And i don’t think Jesus allowed it to happen because He was in any way insecure of JTB’s fame, so JTB had to go. That notion is rather unspeakable.
The stabbing of the girl and the "Jesus" in the film's response is not biblical but worldly psychology. In the Gospels, look how many times it says, "and He healed them all." Also in Acts, "How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him." Acts 10:38 The only time He couldn't do much was by His home town due to their unbelief. The Chosen had a great start, but in my opinion it's going off the rails.
I think you should re read the bible, with all respect. Do you think Jesus ressurected all people that died near him? Do you know how many people probably died during that period? He wouldn't do anything else of he had done that! But jokes aside, i think your commnet is exactly the kind of thing people get wrong about Jesus. Jesus wasn't here to heal bodies(althought he did some of that, he was here to heal souls) The most important thing for him was to believe in him and have changed in spirit and even if you die young but you did the best you could to live a christian life, a real christian life...that is worth more than to live 80 years and not have done anything Jesus wanted us to do.
I have a personal relationship with Abba, Jesus Christ and The Holy Spirit and I have had a lot of loss in my life 😿 But Abba has gotten me through it 🙏❤️
Just finished watching episode 3. I knew that Thomas and Ramah would not be married. I thought she would be one of the women who followed Jesus. I didn't' expect that ending. 💔😢
Today at church the topic of suffering was discussed and the Pastor said that there is meaning behind suffering. If you don't see the meaning behind the suffering it will be torture.
God only knows why tragedy happens. It is in His plan. We may not understand it at the moment it happens, but eventually we come to understand and if we don't ever come to understand it we just need to trust even if it is difficult.
Yes well said.
Because it didn’t happen like that. Ramah wasn’t stabbed in the Bible.
Probably not good to add to gods word.
@@livesandiegofirst of all where in bible did mention abouy what happened to Ramah is not the same in this show? Second Ramah is a fictional character.
@@livesandiegoRamah is not in the Bible. Just like several other characters in The Chosen are not in the Bible. Because it's a TV show, and not an reanactment of the Bible. So they are not adding to the Bible. The Bible has not changed after these 4 first seasons of The Chosen was made. ❤
@@mg137b Changing the character of Jesus is bad: He NEVER refused a healing. That person isn't wrong. Love your show but that has nothing to do with the real Jesus before He ascended.
Jesus won't ever force himself on us to comfort us. He waits for us, when we're ready. ❤
“For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: “And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.” (Rev. 22:18-19.)
@@babyboyproverty This show is not the Bible, quit judging people
In 1:06:15 Dallas said that "even in Gospel Jesus didn't heal or resurrect everyone". Well, there is no single situation in the Gospel where somebody who came to Jesus and asked for healing was rejected or told that "it's not your time yet". There are rather passages about healing everybody who were in place:
"A large crowd followed him, and he healed all who were ill" Matthew 12, 15
"and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick" Matthew 8, 16
and few passages more.
This is a very delicate issue. I believe that Jesus wants all of us to be healed on body and soul. The key factor may be the time indeed. Look at the Gospel version of this episode's healing scene:
"After saying this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. “Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam” (this word means “Sent”). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing."
The man was asked to "go" to the pool. So it took some time to receive healing. It wasn't immediate.
How long does it take to go to our pool after meeting Jesus?
However almost all other miracles of healing in Gospel were immediate.
Hoły Spirit I ask you to give us deeper understanding in such difficult and delicate issues.
Glory to God.
You're correct. Dallas says he doesn't care, so I have embraced the derisive title he bestowed upon us "Naysayers," despite having been a fan. He's doubled down several times now, so choose your champion carefully. (Edited to add for clarity: My champion is the real Jesus Christ and Word.)
It was so sore but so comforting knowing that there are people out there who do understand the confusion and bewilderment and peace of a dream loss.
Boy, the way it ended was so sad, but it's part of life. In seemingly difficult situations, we still need to believe that God loves us. Even when things don't work out favourably, we must trust God. God bless you Dallas and the Chosen team for portraying this spiritual truth.
How I wish my daughter who lost her husband of brain cancer will watch this episode so she can relate why God allow this to happen🙏
I lost my husband to kidney cancer 4 1/2 yrs ago...we fought it hard...the hardest thing for me was to let him go...a part of me I don't think still has...I know people that were healed of cancer so like yourself I prayed and prayed for a healing...a preacher I talked to flat out asked me "don't you think God answered your prayers"? He told me that what I prayed for was a healing not a miracle..BUT even so I thought about it and yes knowing my late husband is now with God and isn't suffering anymore, he is indeed healed...just not in the way I wanted...
As a widower the episode didnt bring me any comfort or change my anger towards him for letting my wife die.
@@AddisonDrakechange your perspective
@@AddisonDrake I am in your boat too. I am angry too. We were just getting ready to start a new chapter in life.
@@iGaveLiaHIV There is nothing to change. I waited 26 years of my life for my wife. I did it his way, stayed celibate until I was with her, didnt date excessively, prayed and waited. After less than 4 years of marriage I watched her rot in a hospital bed for 40 days while I prayed and pleaded and called the elders and did everything he instructed in his word yet I listened to her heart stop 2 months after her 30th birthday. Now I am stuck in this waking hell for who knows how long as a widower until he sees fit to kill me and let me join her. Which will probably be awhile because like Job no matter how much I plead for death it is no where to be found.
I have never felt so heart broken watching The Chosen before. It's so painful to watch the suffering and the loss of someone close to our hearts. Sometimes we blame God for what is happening on our lives, sometimes we can't see what is God trying to do. Even when we don't get to have the healing or the miracles in our lives, we have to trust Him.
i am not sleeping anymore in the evening.i love watching THE CHOCEN again and again.
This episode had me absolutely sobbing in the theater. The grief is so real and absolutely heart-wrenching, for anyone who has experienced loss.
I am in a lot of physical pain at the age of 30 due to severe disk degeneration. Two back surgeries I’m not better with another surgery looming in the background.
Learning to accept Jesus’ “not now” for me. I will get healed when the time is right and my pain has purpose no matter how difficult things might be at times.
The Lord be Gracious and Merciful to You in Christ Jesus' name amen!
Praying for you
You will never get your healing with that type of mindset. Jesus already healed you at the cross. Isaiah 53:4-5 says by his stripes you were healed. See the problem is you are not seeing the way God sees you . Many and often times we don't see our healing not because of God but because we don't spend time in the word to renew our minds and stand on his promises. We have to speak to sickness and command it to leave. Luke 10:19. All power and authority has been given to us. It's our responsibility to act or we don't live in all that Jesus died to give us. I pray your eyes be opened to what you already have in christ.
Your faith is amazing this is literally proving how strong your faith is ❤
I am also sick my friend. Offer your sufferings to Christ, you will save souls. May God bless you and heal you 🩵
This is the second time the Chosen have taking an interesting view regarding healing. There looks to be an emphasis on suffering rather than healing.
Yeah. He didn't heal Mary, Barnabe,Shula among a lot of others right? But you only see when he didn't do it.

While I understand the message you want to get across, I’m not sure if that was the assigned task at hand. Yes it lets Gyasi be elevated to Quintess position and will contrast the resurrection of Lazarus but making the bible real is what I thought the chosen was about. To enable this plot the blind man had to wash his eyes in a bucket and not the Pool of Siloam. I would have preferred to see the dynamics of that play out more accurately.
If I were Thomas I would not have led my girlfriend directly past by the only Roman in sight with a drawn sword for a smart man that seemed like a dumb move. A lot of wrong things had to happen to create the end result. Bring back the power of season1 eppisode1.
It’s a TV show. It is imperfect and the creators have stated that. If you think about it so much of The Chosen is fictional. They are crafting what they think *may* or *could* have happened as a lot of the back stories for the disciples is unwritten. At the end of the day, if the show made you open up your Bible and read and pray more, then it is mission accomplished.
@@lesliemartin443 Problem is, this episode isn't even plausible. It couldn't have happen that one of his disciples was killed in the gospels.
@@Republican_Banana yes, EXACTLY...even tho she was a fictional character Jesus would NEVER have just stood there and said "no" to Thomas who ASKED and with faith...God bless you!!🙏😇
It's a blessing to all people to have The Chosen on the net. Thank you Dallas Jenkins! God bless you and your family always!
Thank you to all the chosen cast….i understand now it’s going to be hard for all of the cast and roles of Jesus disciples. But moving forward, this show is worth it all. ❤ You guys are amazingly blessed.
Thank you Dallas for all your hard work and the support of all of these fans!!

@babyboyproverty your reference doesn't make sense. The commenter nor this show is adding anything, or taking away, from the book of Revelation. Or do you mean to try to apply that curse from Revelation to the whole Bible? CONTEXT is key.
@@justicar2747 Yes. Context is key: Jesus never refused anyone a healing in the actual Bible. It changes the character of Jesus Christ and His mission/ministry and PERCEPTION of those watching next to the Biblical account.
Totally true/ Changes his character. He never turned anyone away. He put the enemy Roman soldiers ear back on after Peter chopped it. After studying the gospel accounts for 45 years, my wife and I both, were shocked, this did not represent Jesus. It showed the human side of Dallas. We are not perfect, we are being perfected.
@@Mir_Nohti Agreed, however if anyone is using The Chosen as a the gospel they have larger issues. The Bible is what matters. There have been things in the show that I've questioned, and checked scripture against it. Yet I also understand this is a TV show and nothing more than that. If the show turns people toward the actual gospel that's a good thing, and I believe the show is at least doing more for the kingdom than someone like Benny Hinn or Joel Osteen; of course that's my opinion.
I'm just weeping right now
Lost my mom to cancer a month ago. This is so relatable. I know God is faithful and knows exactly what He's doing at all times.
While I appreciate everyone commenting how 'The Chosen' helps their suffering, this is not a biblical occurrence. This killing that occurs... how & why.
I’ve been a believer in Jesus Christ since I was about three years old, perhaps even earlier. Got married very young. My husband became ill about 1997, and from that year till about 2003 he just kept getting progressively more and more sick. I prayed a lot. I just kept feeling like I should just let the Lord handle everything. My husband dropped to the floor of heart failure from all his physical problems May 28, 2006. He was in the ICU till June 1, 2006. He was brain dead during that period. my husband was a believer. God did not heal him in this world. I still can’t wrap my head around it all and I had to carry on and raise our two daughters without my husband’s help. I didn’t do a perfect job and I’m still not completely healed from all that agony… But I still believe Jesus and that ultimately he will be completely victorious every tear I’ve ever shed. I see only in part from the perspective at this world.💔
I’m so sorry for your loss. May God bless you and your family. I said a prayer for you and your daughters.
I would like to thank all the members of the Chosen group, the actors and all those involved, you really created a memorable series that will always be remembered for the glory of God.
Hello from Sri Lanka, I am a huge fan of The Chosen from the time it started. The Bible comes alive with so many other interesting stuff thrown in. God is definitely using The Chosen to take the Gospel message to the far corners of the globe. Well done Dallas and his amazing team. We are so grateful..
I don't know if my message reaches the ptoducers or be relevant enough to make a change but; as much as i love every representation on this series except this scene when 'Rema' passes. I think it's a scene that is more likely to have more relevance to the story and that raises a whole lot of moral questions. Plus for people who can't differentiate which part is scripted and which ones are not; it could be massively misleading.
Then to later know it is all fictional is.... kind of, far from what is expected.
edit: the issue is not about God letting us suffer for a better cause. But, such controversial topic being raised from fictional scenarios.
I am so proud of Gaius!
Are all these positive comments selected from the vast array of negatives comments that were in the live chat?
I recognize the comments from the last episode, so probably from a different episode entirely.
I normally stay silent on whether I agree or disagree with some of the things that you do in the Chosen and I can see by the comments that many stand with you on what you chose to portray in episode 3 but I have to admit that I was pretty disappointed. Actually, heartbroken for the disciples and especially Thomas but I was very troubled by this show and was surprised to find that I hadn't gotten over it and I found myself the next morning actually feeling angry. Why? Because in my own opinion this was not done well. I have always been so proud of the show, but I found I was not in this one particular show. You said that this scene had always been coming but I feel it wasn't thought through well and could have been done MUCH BETTER or differently.
Jesus goes and seems to just out of the blue decide to heal a blind man which in the end causes so much strife that even Jesus is arguing with the Pharisee's right in front of all the people. The people are wanting to see more miracles and instead they see strife, contention and a woman dying who was a follower of Jesus. That would not make me want to follow Him. How can you not see that this came across as if Jesus was the cause of all this contention in the first place? Even He got very heated in the conversation right in front of the people. The man hadn't asked to be healed so Jesus wasn't fighting for the man's right to be healed. I am not saying the man didn't deserve healing. Of course not, but I feel it went too far. After many had seen this wonderful miracle, they also witnessed the loss of a terrific and loving character and then although I heard Dallas's reason for the statement 'it isn't her time', as if somehow Rhema was less important than the man born blind. Jesus was right there. God in the flesh who had already healed countless people stood there and watched her die. He knew something was wrong before anyone even told Him and yes, I know that bad things happen to good people but this scene was not really in the Bible and although I do realize that you take liberties which I have enjoyed when it comes to sharing the lives of the Apostles and so forth you chose to give us the character of Rhema and then you decided to let her go in front of the eyes of those who'd just watched a wonderful miracle take place knowing full well that Jesus was there and had been involved in all the strife. Where did the witnesses see God in this?
I do love the Chosen series. I've purchased almost all of them for myself and several family members. I sow into it every single month because I love to see the humanity of Jesus and the disciples, but I don't see the necessity of what you chose to do in this one show. I can only pray that you remove the 'Jesus heals and then lets people be murdered in front of His eyes' out of upcoming scripts. Just maybe some of the decisions or choices you made or laid out long ago aren't necessarily going to work with what you are building now. You just had John the Baptist killed which is biblical, but Rhema was a character that was always there and not distant like John. This is a character that will affect Mary, Thomas and others for quite some time. It was unnecessary.
As I already mentioned you take a lot of liberties and people grace you on that because we do not have enough information and we love to imagine what their lives might have been like. You have truly given us a wonderful window or look into what might have been for the disciples, their families etc... but whether you see it this way or not you are teaching thousands of people the Bible and so when you take such liberties there are people that will believe this really happened. IT DID NOT! I just can't see why this was even necessary. I agree that there is a lot of suffering in the world. I won't even go into the things in my own family, household etc... but seeing Jesus just stand there for me was impactful in the wrong way. I've known the Lord for 30 years now. I can only imagine how it felt for a new believer or someone who was not yet saved.
Probably feels the same way as when they ask God to heal someone close to them who is dying and yet still died, even though God can do anything and is everywhere (like right there) and bad still happens
@@chezjowy8596 Actually no I don't. Apparently, you didn't really get what I was saying and yet you felt you had to respond. I know there is suffering. I know people die and I know that not all prayers appear answered as we would like. I am saying I don't feel the way the scene played out was good for new believers or young believers. Firstly, it isn't a biblical scene. It was added using liberties that the show takes to share the stories of the disciples. To me it came across as if Jesus caused the strife in the first place. So, did Jesus heal a man and then because of all the strife and an openly heated conversation cause the death of Rhema? I'm concerned about how this scene came across to those the show is trying to speak to. I really don't think Dallas has an issue with people sharing their thoughts or even asking questions otherwise he wouldn't take some live before the show.
@@thishouseofworship444 just adding to the algorithm mate, no need to bunch 'em
I enjoy The Chosen but do not like what appears to be deliberate controversies being created. No need to rehash all of them, but there sure seems to be fires set on purpose to get the audience worked up. Be careful with that approach.
I understand and I was upset too at first. But just having lost my 40 daughter to cancer, I know that he heals and makes whole everyone who believes on Him. We had faith. She was strong. I really thought she would be healed. Well, she is. She is more whole and healed now than ever before. I think showing the realities of life touches more people than not showing it. The death of John the Baptizer hit me very hard. Even though in my head I always knew this was true. I thought, O, God, these things really happened. These were real people. We must think of what the next thing Rhema saw after she closed her eyes in death. She opened her eyes in Paradise. Even though her character was fictional we still believe as if it were true. Love you. Thank you
“Oh I’m just getting started” is nice but I’d rather see “Before Abraham was, I am!”
oh yes, EXACTLY...me too!!..thank you!..God bless you!!..🙏👍🏻😇
I didn't go away from this episode feeling the spirit. I think the storyline took away from the spirit. Hopefully next episode will be better.
Agreed.
In trying to include the issue of some are healed and some are not...there is yet much we do not know of God's intervention in our earthly life. What results we hope our faith will bring and what parts give us knowledge and understanding even of unfairness, illness, lonliness,betrayal, evil, death and loss. In reviewing my life at times I see what seemed very bad as a ray of light in building a testimony of eternal truth. I am, not my body alone even on earth. Though the movie is fiction and physical companionship is lost, the help this woman could give in spirit could be important. To carry on with personal sorrow does not necessarily make one stronger. It has broken many hearts. Thus the great 'ray of light' I cannot deny that Christ brings resurrection and eternal life with Him.
Unfortunately it seems The Chosen has train wrecked, thriving off fictional tragedies that make the characters (and the audience) mad at Jesus and suck the life out of the biblical events. It started in Season 3 with the fictional miscarriage casting a shadow of bitterness over the feeding of the 5,000, which should have been a joyous display of Christ’s provision. This season is even worse-Jesus standing there watching her die (fiction!) and then raising Lazarus (actual history) is a horrible story choice. What happened to bringing the Bible to life? The show has abandoned its premise of showing us Jesus through the eyes of those who knew Him; this is not how the disciples saw Jesus.
@@wilsonhickman 100%. I give up on this series. I pray it’s not destructive to people’s faith. I wouldn’t want to answer for perverting God’s message, I will pray for them too.
I'm stuck in bed with the flu, and SO GLAD to be surprised that I get to enjoy this episode again. Thank you for releasing it in the theaters, because it was amazing to enjoy this story in the midst of the world that we all are finding our way in, with the help of heaven and our guide, Jesus!
Jesus will wipe away all tears.
He always has
Matthew 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
👏
Yes He did, but in this show Rahma wasn’t sick she was dead. Thomas wasn’t asking for her to be healed, he was asking for her to be resurrected.
And she was only dead because this fictional Jesus stood there and watched her die. This show is many people’s first exposure to the life of Jesus, and to create a fictional tragedy like this that sucks the life out of His actual miracles is very unfortunate.
So true, i was also thinking of this... we don't need to grieve on fictional things...jesus said I came so that we can have life and have it in abundance
@@annme7638 In the gospels, Jesus heals everyone/anyone (believers or not) who asked. That's the actual gospel truth. Ramah is a hypothetical, but what we know of the nature of Jesus, He would NOT have: Screamed at the Pharisees, cause a riot then ran, came back to watch a disciple die and then refused a healing.
This episode was heartbreaking but Jesus never said that we wouldnt suffer & feel pain. We have to understand that Jesus does not answer ALL our prayers. Painful to see but brilliantly done!!
“And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.”(Matthew 9:35)
There was no record that Jesus didn't heal anyone is his path apart from the occasions of unbelief which could block the healing.
“And he could do no mighty work there.” (Mark 6:5)
In this case however there would have been no unbelief in this scene as it was involving his disciples. This theology of Jesus looks off to me.
Amazed about how loose and inaccurate this depiction has been. Seems like Dallas' personal theology is steering the ship, not the bible.

Not funny or even remotely appropriate. Not only was this callous and unnecessary, but it was cold blooded and done purely for shock value. There is nothing you can say scripturally - to me at least - not least of all because this isn't even in scripture, but because you had a choice.
And you chose wrong.

No, I am a writer too. Though I write fiction and sometimes it is gritty, it seems I am being led. Writing is not something I could do by myself so I have to think it is a gift from God. You have nothing until he starts the process. Then I am always surprised by where it leads to in a story.
@@lindaphillips994 I have written other people's stories for decades. It was my job and I wanted to make sure I never inflated or misconstrued facts and feelings.

I will never understand it.
I’m kinda disappointed the show decided to steer away from the source material
I truly enjoyed this episode. Rahma death was a shocker! James and John consumed by position and missing the point of why Jesus came is classic. Thanks for the entertainment in the midst of truth.
When watching the episode, I was a bit confused with the beginning when David and Bathsheba seemed to have no idea why God allowed their baby to die. Did I miss something? I seemed to recall that they did know, and when I went to scripture it seems that they did (2 Sam 12:13-16 NASB): "Then David said to Nathan, “I have sinned against the Lord.” And Nathan said to David, “The Lord also has taken away your sin; you shall not die. However, because by this deed you have given occasion to the enemies of the Lord to blaspheme, the child also that is born to you shall surely die.” So Nathan went to his house. Then the Lord struck the child that Uriah’s widow bore to David, so that he was very sick.
You're absolutely right! Yet another example of The Chosen defending their views on illness, death, circumstance, etc. They don't defend God's Word but twist it.
We know who it is who twists God's Word, don't we?
You are absolutely correct.
When Putin decided to invade Ukraine does that not mean that children will die and doesn't that mean people asked God why doesn't He stop the war. We know we do wrong but although the death penalty has been borne by Jesus there are still consequences that will hurt our and others innocent love ones.
@ifunanyaokoli8440 huh? I don't get it. There is a lot going n in your comment. David got a direct revelation from God through Nathan about his son. David did plead for God to rescind his decision, but he did not. It shows our sin has consequences. Sometimes it is obvious why calamity happens. Many times it is not.
Thomas’s reaction at the end was so raw. I couldn’t stop crying. Left the theater in shock and not being able talk about until tonight. Beyond sad and such art imitating life.
yes, he acted his guts out, truly heartbreaking stuff.
I'm out of words when Rima died, but I immediately fasten my faith. If I live, I live for Christ, should I die, I'll die for him 😔, in all my ways, Lord God, I am ever yours 🙇🏽♀️🙇🏽♀️🙇🏽♀️🤲🤲🤲
I am so excited, watching from Boksburg south Africa
What a powerful episode and message, Jesus is The parent, and if a parent says no, it has to be a no.😢
I am sitting here in utter silence. It was so powerful and so true. Sometimes, our Heavenly Father doesn't heal us. We have to exercise trust and faith in his timing and will. Loved this episode. Thank you
This was perfect timing as today is the Sunday of the blind man in the Orthodox Church. Almost the entire chapter of John 9 was read and the homily centered on this story. It was cool to see that context come to life.
I. Prayer for Jasmine, that She will pursue and discover The Lord in a more real way in her life forward. A special Lady, well done.
I purposely avoided this episode, given my own recent loss. The Chosen has strengthened my faith and belief in Jesus's teachings.
This episode took my breath away! And no doubt questions as to why it was included has perplexed many.....me too. However lest we forget God is Love, we may never understand the when, how & why death happens. But one thing I do believe, is to always be present in the moment, to love and try the best you can to live according to Jesus's teachings. GOD IS LOVE!
Dallas, actors, and all associated with this production, as much as this was shocking, you continue to amaze me in your depiction of Christ and his disciples!
Brilliant ❤❤❤
Just a question. Would Jesus create a protest that would cause someone's death? That's what this looked like for me. I don't think he would be reckless like that.
Dont get it twisted the Romans caused this
An increasing part of the chosen is pure fiction.
@Republican_Banana, We've always maintained that while "The Chosen" is a show inspired by the Bible, it is ultimately a traditional TV show, with twists and turns and surprises and drama and comedy. Like with other historical dramas, not all of our story comes straight from fact.
@@TheChosenSeries Which goes against the Gospel. A little leaven, leavens the whole lump. People who know no better, will take your fiction, mixed with truth to be all truth. Christ will NOT be pleased with you.
@@TheChosenSeries True, but when portraying Jesus you usually wouldn't portray him doing something we know doesn't fit with who he is in scripture. It's not even a plausible scenario based on who he is. The Pharisees tried to get Jesus to start such unrest so they could accuse him and he wouldn't. In this episode him doing this resulted in his follower's accidental death and shows a reckless nature rather than the shepherd of the sheep. None of Jesus's disciples were lost except Judas.
Great episode! Loved it. But Jesus ALWAYS healed in the gospels. We NEVER see a situation where he doesn't heal. Even when ASKED if he was willing he said "I AM willing"
I agree.... this doesn't look right....Jesus was basically saying in that moment I don't feel like it. That's why this scene needed to be different. Like Simon rushed Jesus away. So that he wasn't there when it happened. Not Jesus refusing to save her. I get she's a new character. But it's different than it was with Simon. Since Jesus wasn't there. I understand bad things happen. And it's the will of God and all that. But if Jesus saved her that would be his will. So him healing and resurrecting strangers but not one of his own right in front of him. Why, to teach them some lesson on loss. I don't buy it.
Yes it’s overwhelming. Not a good choice 😢
Exactly. It elaborates on scripture in a way which is not correct. He healed all who were sick and came to Him with faith to be healed. The scene also portrays Jesus as reckless and needlessly antagonistic. He sometimes had harsh words for the Pharisees, but he never actively sought animosity or controversy merely for the sake of it (that is a human failing), let alone one that causes the death of his follower.
Thank you guys
I experienced loss so can understand the reason for the part depicting the death of Reyma. My husband got a brain tumor in 1993. The doctors didn't hold out much hope. But he was healed. Later he accepted Jesus as saviour. At age 66 in 2015 he had a seizure & spent 4mths in ICU & passed away on 29th Oct. As sad as it was I knew I would see him again one day because he got saved. There is a time we will all leave the earth & be reunited with our loved ones & friends. It's very hard to accept these things but that is life. Thank you for a wonderful show that has so many amazing truths. God bless you all.
What is so amazing about this wonderful show, is to be able to hear and see the emotions and drama of some of the most famous scenes from the Bible. I have read this section in the Gospels about the healing of the blind man and Jesus confronting the Pharisees... But, I have only read the words. Seeing this same scene occurring in such a chaotic way and probably like what really happened really glorifies God. Thank you for making this.
I completely agree 💯
The beheading of John the Baptist hit me like that. O my God, these were real people and real things happened to them.
„Stay with Him! That‘s all I want!“
I have watched" Brave Heart" many times and each time I cried but it did something to my heart so has this season 4, episode three.
I dont understand...... I dont remember reading about this anywhere in the scriptures...... I am so confused right now.
God had chosen Thomas for a specific role in this world. To spread the good news to the people of India. We are definitely very grayeful to Him. Thank you Heavenly Father. Thank you Dallas for that scene. All our suffering in this life is for some better plan which God has for each one of us
