  • 00:24:32.315 --> 00:24:34.851
  • Covered it in a way that i thought was honoring to the
  • 00:24:34.984 --> 00:24:35.551
  • Thought was honoring to the word of god and really told the
  • 00:24:35.685 --> 00:24:36.352
  • Word of god and really told the truth.
  • 00:24:36.486 --> 00:24:38.354
  • Truth. >> why has the why of those
  • 00:24:38.521 --> 00:24:39.422

  • Of myth and made up and there's so many how in the world did
  • 00:24:58.608 --> 00:25:01.844

  • Literally the average person on the thinks that well it really
  • 00:25:06.349 --> 00:25:09.786

  • Legacy they're they're rejecting what modern society
  • 00:28:40.363 --> 00:28:43.866
  • Rejecting what modern society is telling them they can be or
  • 00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:44.634
  • Is telling them they can be or should be and saying no, the
  • 00:28:44.767 --> 00:28:48.304

  • A great nice easy introduction to the new testament we're not
  • 00:29:00.583 --> 00:29:03.519
  • To the new testament we're not going to get super deep and
  • 00:29:03.653 --> 00:29:04.220
  • Going to get super deep and controversial in this one.
  • 00:29:04.353 --> 00:29:04.921
  • Controversial in this one. >> you know everybody loves the
  • 00:29:05.054 --> 00:29:07.657
  • >> you know everybody loves the chosen and house of david in
  • 00:29:07.790 --> 00:29:08.357
  • Chosen and house of david in these biblical stories so we're
  • 00:29:08.491 --> 00:29:11.193
  • These biblical stories so we're going to go back and say what
  • 00:29:11.327 --> 00:29:12.028
  • Going to go back and say what is the origin story of these
  • 00:29:12.161 --> 00:29:12.728
  • Is the origin story of these stories?
  • 00:29:12.862 --> 00:29:13.062
  • Stories? how did we them you know, how
  • 00:29:13.195 --> 00:29:15.231
  • How did we them you know, how did matthew and mark and luke
  • 00:29:15.364 --> 00:29:16.065
  • Did matthew and mark and luke write down paul you know james
  • 00:29:16.198 --> 00:29:19.368
  • Write down paul you know james is one we take particular on
  • 00:29:19.502 --> 00:29:22.905
  • Is one we take particular on james the brother of jesus
  • 00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:23.573
  • James the brother of jesus because the bible doesn't tell
  • 00:29:23.706 --> 00:29:24.307
  • Because the bible doesn't tell us a whole lot about him just
  • 00:29:24.440 --> 00:29:27.376
  • Us a whole lot about him just that he was jesus brother
  • 00:29:27.510 --> 00:29:28.010
  • That he was jesus brother didn't believe in him then
  • 00:29:28.144 --> 00:29:28.678
  • Didn't believe in him then there's a really key verse it's
  • 00:29:28.811 --> 00:29:31.147
  • There's a really key verse it's tiny little part of the bible.
  • 00:29:31.280 --> 00:29:31.914
  • Tiny little part of the bible. it says after his resurrection
  • 00:29:32.048 --> 00:29:34.750
  • It says after his resurrection then jesus appeared to peter
  • 00:29:34.884 --> 00:29:35.451
  • Then jesus appeared to peter and to james then to all the
  • 00:29:35.585 --> 00:29:36.352
  • And to james then to all the apostles so what was that
  • 00:29:36.485 --> 00:29:39.922
  • Apostles so what was that appearance like to james to
  • 00:29:40.056 --> 00:29:40.623
  • Appearance like to james to change him from a nonbeliever
  • 00:29:40.756 --> 00:29:43.125
  • Change him from a nonbeliever to the head of the first church
  • 00:29:43.259 --> 00:29:43.893
  • To the head of the first church ever in jerusalem so the church
  • 00:29:44.026 --> 00:29:47.163
  • Ever in jerusalem so the church fathers have given us a little
  • 00:29:47.296 --> 00:29:50.132
  • Fathers have given us a little story a little background on
  • 00:29:50.266 --> 00:29:50.933
  • Story a little background on what that story was like so we
  • 00:29:51.067 --> 00:29:51.701
  • What that story was like so we put it in film.
  • 00:29:51.834 --> 00:29:54.170
  • Put it in film. >> well, you know it's one of
  • 00:29:54.303 --> 00:29:54.937
  • >> well, you know it's one of the fascinating for me one of
  • 00:29:55.071 --> 00:29:57.573
  • The fascinating for me one of the fascinating scenes in the
  • 00:29:57.707 --> 00:29:58.307
  • The fascinating scenes in the film because you do have just
  • 00:29:58.441 --> 00:29:59.041
  • Film because you do have just that little mention paul that
  • 00:29:59.175 --> 00:30:02.144
  • That little mention paul that is so singular one he he
  • 00:30:02.278 --> 00:30:02.878
  • Is so singular one he he appeared james as an isolated
  • 00:30:03.012 --> 00:30:05.881
  • Appeared james as an isolated event and any the way he writes
  • 00:30:06.015 --> 00:30:09.418
  • Event and any the way he writes it it's like the entire world
  • 00:30:09.552 --> 00:30:10.152
  • It it's like the entire world knows about this.
  • 00:30:10.286 --> 00:30:12.922
  • Knows about this. >> this isn't something that's
  • 00:30:13.055 --> 00:30:13.656
  • >> this isn't something that's been hidden but yet for from
  • 00:30:13.789 --> 00:30:16.125
  • Been hidden but yet for from modern standpoint looking back
  • 00:30:16.258 --> 00:30:16.859
  • Modern standpoint looking back there are very few sources for
  • 00:30:16.993 --> 00:30:20.529
  • There are very few sources for it.
  • 00:30:20.663 --> 00:30:20.796
  • It. so how did you construct that?
  • 00:30:20.930 --> 00:30:23.933
  • So how did you construct that? >> what what were the prime
  • 00:30:24.066 --> 00:30:24.700
  • >> what what were the prime texts for that we go straight
  • 00:30:24.834 --> 00:30:27.370
  • Texts for that we go straight back to those sources of the
  • 00:30:27.503 --> 00:30:28.104
  • Back to those sources of the church fathers which kind of
  • 00:30:28.237 --> 00:30:28.804
  • Church fathers which kind of sounds like a bunch of old gray
  • 00:30:28.938 --> 00:30:31.941
  • Sounds like a bunch of old gray beard men but these guys were
  • 00:30:32.074 --> 00:30:32.675
  • Beard men but these guys were the ones that were fighting
  • 00:30:32.808 --> 00:30:35.645
  • The ones that were fighting that were writing down the
  • 00:30:35.778 --> 00:30:36.379
  • That were writing down the basic tenets of christianity
  • 00:30:36.512 --> 00:30:37.113
  • Basic tenets of christianity and forming them and some dying
  • 00:30:37.246 --> 00:30:39.682
  • And forming them and some dying and some being persecuted for
  • 00:30:39.815 --> 00:30:40.416
  • And some being persecuted for them so they to me they were
  • 00:30:40.549 --> 00:30:43.886
  • Them so they to me they were heroes and wow, did they leave
  • 00:30:44.020 --> 00:30:44.620
  • Heroes and wow, did they leave us a goldmine information a lot
  • 00:30:44.754 --> 00:30:47.323
  • Us a goldmine information a lot of them lived right there in
  • 00:30:47.456 --> 00:30:48.157
  • Of them lived right there in judea.
  • 00:30:48.290 --> 00:30:50.593
  • Judea. a lot of them lived a little
  • 00:30:50.726 --> 00:30:51.427
  • A lot of them lived a little bit further out but they all
  • 00:30:51.560 --> 00:30:52.128
  • Bit further out but they all knew these stories passed down
  • 00:30:52.261 --> 00:30:54.430
  • Knew these stories passed down from generation to generation.
  • 00:30:54.563 --> 00:30:55.164
  • From generation to generation. so i found a great by a man
  • 00:30:55.297 --> 00:30:58.434
  • So i found a great by a man named hidden precipice.
  • 00:30:58.567 --> 00:30:59.068
  • Named hidden precipice. >> everybody knows that one.
  • 00:30:59.201 --> 00:31:02.438
  • >> everybody knows that one. >> yeah, he is a big one.
  • 00:31:02.571 --> 00:31:03.305
  • >> yeah, he is a big one. i'm just trying to map for ease
  • 00:31:03.439 --> 00:31:07.009
  • I'm just trying to map for ease of use and yeah okay and the
  • 00:31:07.143 --> 00:31:09.779
  • Of use and yeah okay and the great thing is a lot of it but
  • 00:31:09.912 --> 00:31:10.546
  • Great thing is a lot of it but you see this was a great
  • 00:31:10.680 --> 00:31:11.180
  • You see this was a great one too because a lot of these
  • 00:31:11.313 --> 00:31:11.914
  • One too because a lot of these writings were lost in the first
  • 00:31:12.048 --> 00:31:13.983
  • Writings were lost in the first century but this guy you see
  • 00:31:14.116 --> 00:31:14.817
  • Century but this guy you see this in the third century had
  • 00:31:14.950 --> 00:31:16.285
  • This in the third century had written them all down in his
  • 00:31:16.419 --> 00:31:17.019
  • Written them all down in his writings and his writings
  • 00:31:17.153 --> 00:31:17.653
  • Writings and his writings survived.
  • 00:31:17.787 --> 00:31:19.789
  • Survived. so i found this amazing story
  • 00:31:19.922 --> 00:31:20.656
  • So i found this amazing story not just about jesus visit to
  • 00:31:20.790 --> 00:31:24.126
  • Not just about jesus visit to james which you know, you have
  • 00:31:24.260 --> 00:31:24.860
  • James which you know, you have to watch the movie to see it
  • 00:31:24.994 --> 00:31:25.594
  • To watch the movie to see it but also death of james which
  • 00:31:25.728 --> 00:31:28.264
  • But also death of james which was a very he was basically a
  • 00:31:28.397 --> 00:31:31.534
  • Was a very he was basically a christian martyr but and it was
  • 00:31:31.667 --> 00:31:32.301
  • Christian martyr but and it was it was a bit of a graphic death
  • 00:31:32.435 --> 00:31:33.269
  • It was a bit of a graphic death so well, he's such a key figure
  • 00:31:33.402 --> 00:31:36.672
  • So well, he's such a key figure because the gospels do that as
  • 00:31:36.806 --> 00:31:40.109
  • Because the gospels do that as a brother of jesus.
  • 00:31:40.242 --> 00:31:40.676
  • A brother of jesus. he was you know, not a
  • 00:31:40.810 --> 00:31:44.213
  • He was you know, not a believer.
  • 00:31:44.346 --> 00:31:44.580
  • Believer. he's like what are you doing?
  • 00:31:44.714 --> 00:31:45.314
  • He's like what are you doing? you're embarrassing all and and
  • 00:31:45.448 --> 00:31:48.150
  • You're embarrassing all and and then so after the resurrection
  • 00:31:48.284 --> 00:31:51.954
