Hi Everyone
I have just learned that a new movie called ‘legion’ is to be released in January this year. The Synopsis is basically as follows:
“When God loses faith in mankind He sends His angels to bring on the apocalypse. Humanity’s only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael.”
Firstly, these two sentences alone already show red lights. Firsly it talks about God losing faith in Humanity, although God’s word says: “I will never leave you, I will never forsake you” (Heb 13:5). Secondly, the phrase suggests that humanity is fighting back, with the help of Michael the archangel. This would suggest that Michael has turned his back on God and God’s plan….
Some of the dialogue states: The last time God lost faith in Man he sent the flood. This time, he sent angels.”
The name legion on wikipedia is described as follows: “Legion, also known as the Gerasene Demon, is a demon found in the Christian Bible.”
I have seen the trailer of the movie (http://www.legionmovie.com/) and amongst others it depicts:
- Demons taking on human form (very graphic)
- A Depiction of humans fighting (physically) Angels who carry guns & swords ??
- It shows both Archangels Michael and Gabriel fighting each other – because Michael did not ‘obey’
- Michael comes to earth to protect a pregnant woman because her child is the only hope humanity has of survival (depicting the same as Christ)
- Michael says to Gabriel “I knew he would send you Gabriel…You were always so eager to please him” Gabriel replies: “Unlike you” (this would suggest that Michael, like Lucifer (satan) has turned his back on God.)
- Michael and Gabriel engage in an ‘Angelic Battle’.
- Michael says to a human who asks if this is the apocalypse “This is an extermination” – This is in contrast with the word of God that states that God is Love and a God of Love.
The full synopsis basically states that God has lost faith in Human kind and ‘no one’ is safe.
You can view an in depth video pulling apart the movie by Pastor Joe schimmel of Goodfight Ministries here.
We are told in the Bible: “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil…”
We need to protect our families and friends from movies such as this which is against scripture.
