Netflix: A Christian Apologist's Must See Films List

By Edgar on Feb 14, 2010 | 7965 views

A list of films that deal with worldview themes. If you haven't seen them, you need to. If you have any other favorites, leave us a comment.

	You don’t have to proof you’re right, just prove that they’re wrong. This should be our only goal with engaging with other worldviews. For if we can prove their wrong, we've done our job.
	Human made utopias will fail. All of them. Why does our thirst for happiness drives to such insanity that we think we can design around original sin?
	Humans are imperfect; yet we are loved just as we are. Still - we shall continue to wish for something better, right?
	Say no to the Prosperity Gospel. People tell you you're entitled to good things, really? Why you? Why not Padre Romero?
	Race. Murder. Grace. Forgiveness. If you've read the book, you'd love the movie. more
	The day will come when they will cry out to the mountains: Please -- fall on us! And the sad part will be - we'll be loving such an atrocity and choose to turn the other cheek. Big mistake!
	One Man. One Hope. Faith and Love. This is the story of the good news. A savior. Fiction imitates life.
	Destiny couldn't be bigger than Neil. But you already knew that. You just wanted the cookie. What a wonderful Calvinist tale!
	If you're a married couple, you'd love this film. Love endures all things.

After putting in a search on Google for 'Christian movies in Netflix' I was at first pleasantly surprised to find this website, created by a christian organization nonetheless! I anticipated finding some good, wholesome, fun, uplifting movies that reflected Biblical values. After looking at the movie recommendations, I was soon deeply grieved. I just don't get it (and I'm sure I will be accused of being 'judgmental' very soon... but don't take it up with me, take it up with the Man who wrote the Book!) - why the recommendations on movies that include things as blasphemy (the omega man) and immoral sexuality (the notebook) as well as most of the others having blatant things in them (not seen them, but after reading the reviews on them on christiananswers.net and pluggedin.com - 2 excellent 'tell-it-as-it-is christian movie review sites) that come nowhere close to following Ps. 101:3 "I will set before my eyes no vile thing" or Phil. 4:8 "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things." or Job 31:1 "I made a covenant with my eyes not to look lustfully at a girl." What - is there erasable bibles out there? Or are you thinking you are walking in the 'freedom' that Paul describes and do whatever you want because "I am strong...!"? Look at Paul's teaching on that closer... and do not be deceived. There ARE plenty of good movies on netflix that are exciting, fun, funny, romantic, but do not go against God's principles. Be blessed and watch them. Keep your mind and spirit out of the gutter. What you choose to watch does affect WHO you are.

PK,

Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it.

two thoughts:
one - we saw some of these movies before we were christians.

two - these movies have biblical themes that are great conversation pieces. People bring them up at work or school and it is always great to be able to make the connection and raise the conversation to a spiritual that brings it back to God, his glory and his love.

That said, check out these other films. top 10 christian movies

My thought is that we have the Holy Spirit living in us. I can't imagine Him sitting and enjoying the swearing and sex and violence. Our topics should always be holy and clean. If we are guided by the Holy Spirit we won't need any movie; especially worldly movies. He'll bring the name of Jesus up easily. Luke 12:12
New International Version (NIV)

12 for the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.”

If this scripture is true (which I know it is) then we must not corrupt our minds by intentionnaly watching these movies. The moment we compromise that is when the enemy has us

Marni,

Thanks for the feedback. The movies are meant for conversation starter purposes.

You do have a good point that we should be careful of what we watch. On that I agree.
