‘The Chosen’ Creator Dallas Jenkins Praises Mormons For Honoring, Reverencing Scipture

I never cared for The Chosen nor anything else put out by Angel Studios with the exception of Dry Bar Comedy on YouTube featuring clean comedians. If you’re a true follower of Jesus Christ who studies scripture, you’ll realize that Catholicism is heretical and a false religion of human works just like Mormonism. They deny Christ was God and the only way to salvation through faith and grace, so there is no other way than to declare them Satanic religions leading their followers to hell. Within this context, this all makes perfect sense as they’re a Satanic brotherhood of deception. And worth noting, most supposed “Christian” media is connected to Catholicism and not worth your time or energy. And false “Christians” eventually end up spewing there are many paths to God like heretic Billy Graham, which is a lie straight from hell. And in Graham’s OCGFC backed TV Crusades, he referred a lot of people to nearby Catholic churches as well as liberal churches…

Dallas Jenkins, son of “Left Behind” author Jerry Jenkins, and Director of the smash-hit TV show The Chosen, continues to act as an apologist for the Church of the Latter Day Saints, insisting in a new interview that Mormons have such a reverence and genuine respect for Christ- more than most evangelicals do-and they honor scripture and exhibit fidelity to scripture.

We’ve previously written about Jenkins and his willingness to insist that Mormons love Jesus and are believers, despite them being a non-Christian cult, in our posts:

Appearing on the Follow Him podcast, which is operated by two Mormon BYU professors, speaking in context about a scene he directed which had a lively and joyous atmosphere, Jenkins explains:

I feel like it’s okay for me to say this because as you know, I’m honored evangelical mascot of the LDS church. So I’ve been granted favor to say certain things that maybe others can’t say.

I would say that there’s such a reverence and there’s such a genuine respect for Christ, which is great. You guys probably do that better than we evangelicals do it.

But sometimes it can lead to a formality and I’ve seen it in paintings. I’ve seen it in some of the LDS videos and portrayals of Christ is very formal. He looks and sounds like he’s quoting King James Bible, which he is.

And again, this comes from a good place of honoring scripture, fidelity to scripture.
