That's fine as long as know this in not God in the movie. It is a fictionalize character as is Jesus and the Holy Spirit. But remember God is love and will always be there for you, but he is also a judgmental God. There is only one way to heaven and it is easy and ABC A=Accept Jesus as your personal Savior B= Believe he died on the cross for your sins C=Confess your sins to God and ask for forgiveness. That is all it takes to become a child of God and the only way to be saved.

Would love to hear your song..... I loved the movie as well....

Donna Hooten: with ABC, there is no repentance?

I also wrote a song called black waters.

@ambidextrousfapper ~ REPENTANCE means to turn your feet/your ways/your deeds/your doings ~ away from sinning, or the particular sin that you committed; Therefore, when a person makes the CHOICE to TURN AWAY FROM THEIR SINS, that "THOUGHT" BEGINS "IN THE MIND" first, then the body will follow. You cannot do a thing until you first THINK of it. 😊💛

The most ridiculous book and film to have ever been produced in history, and the real evidence that there is no god whatsoever - a terrible, truly terrible and abuse-ridden film

@@RelativeBadger how so?

Well, ultimately what will save us is not something that gives us a nice feeling or touches our soul, but the gift of God, that was the sacrifice of Jesus for us. God forgave us in Him. And there are a looot of cults who and wrong teaches who distort this very simple gospel. It leads people astray from the truth. So it actually does matter what you believe.

The God in the movie is not the God of the Bible. This is a fictionalize God and doesn't represent God or the Holy Trinity in Biblical terms. It is made up God. The man who wrote the book goes against the Bible in his beliefs.

Hope your prayers get answered...

Thank you Danielle ....being patient ;)). Merry Chistmas

Agreed, it is amazing! I saw it 3 times in one week!

Jessica Winger did you read the book? Does it follow the book?

mary S No I haven't read the book didn't even know about it till they did the movie.

Jessica Winger Better read your Bible!

Heidi Clark I'm a christian and I'm trying to read my bible

Sounds like an infomercial. Not the god of the bible, enjoy hell.

The truth: God would not sore himself as a black woman. Probably only a male, most likely a Hebrew male.

It's indoctrination initiation to The Luciferian Doctrine to the masses this is the "Great Plan". Movies & TV is powerful Mind Control Device's that have been used to program the masses into this New Fifth Age Worship of lucifer the Devil. It's now in plain sight what they call "Externalization of the higharchy" . What is seen on TV is also Not Real or not as it seems this world is under the sway of the Wicked one & Satan has a terrible plan for your life. to believe he does not …well that's his greatest hope. because he will be revealed as a Angel of Light. many will follow after him he will manifest in a man's body the Anti Christ the "One" that these ppl speak of that is to come the UN has a committee for his arrival "Matraya" The Muslims are waiting for "the Maudi" these are manifestations of the Same spirit of Anti Christ. Satanist have made it as far as having in's w/Public Schools doing After School Groups w/Satanic Coloring books for 1st Graders….!!!!! When people turn from The Word of God & The LORD Jesus Christ this is all that is left - The LIE. The Shack main Message is Reject Jesus of The Bible & "Do what thy Wilt" is the message of this book/movie. The Opposite of The real Jesus Christ , The Holy Spirit & God The Father who are twisted turn into old pagan hindu god's & goddess's a Blasphemous book/movie that is spiritual Poison. This type of turning away from the Truth is Spoke of in the Bible about these times the Script say's - In the last days men will turn from the truth to doctrines of devils heaping teachers to themselves having itching ears, they will deny The Very LORD God that bought them w/His Blood. They will NOT Put up with Sound Doctrine in the last days. There is Now a Great Falling Away i.e. Apostasy of The FAITH Right Here & Now 2017 Full Swing. This is the fruit of this infiltration of the church with Wolves spiritist satanist witches sodomites pedophiles are being allowed to be in so called "churches" Trust no man But Jesus The God/Man the Way The Truth & The Life the Only Way to The Father. No man can go any6 other way if he that tries is the same as a thief & a robber. Let No Man Deceive you by ANY means for That Day Shall Not Come till There be a Falling Away i.e. The Great Apostasy & The son of perdition be revealed i.e. The Anti Christ. What day The Day Jesus Come Back the 1st Resurrection The Gathering of the Saints i.e. the Rapture. 2nd Thess chp 2 & Matt 24. Look into Jesus pray about this , check out the origins of Hollywood the Agenda's are Clear Pedophila is on the Agenda Right now. We need folks to turn from Wickedness to Jesus for Forgiveness & New Life! We Need to be Reconciled to Him by The Spirit you Must be Born Again unless you be Born Again you can not see the kingdom of God. The Gospel is Foolishness to those that are Perishing but is The Power of God unto Salvation. Jesus Lived Died A Sinless Man in Our place God manifested was beat whipped mocked. & Rose again the 3rd Day Alive forever more. If you will Believe in your heart that Jesus Christ was Raised from The Dead & Receive His Grace Thru Faith you are Saved Not of Works lest any man should Boast. The Gift of Faith is from HIM we just gotta Choose whom will we serve? Choose Jesus Christ Read His Word & obey what you know. This is a War for Souls of mankind. The Shack It's not Just a Movie or a book, But is a Tool of The Enemy Aimed at your Faith in The One & Only True GOD as revealed in The HOLY Bible. remember The Devils 1st Lie? "yeah Hath God Said?" He questioned Gods Word that's how Eve was Deceived by that Lie.

very true

Ozark Bushcraft Adventures What saves you? Your belief in Jesus, or Jesus? Choose one.

So where in the bible does is say you're the judge of a mans heart ? Actually what does the bible say about judging in general? Mathew, Luke, James, John, Romans, Corinthians, Galatians...just to name a few are pretty clear about that. One of them actually says, You're a FOOL if you do so. How do you know the spirit of Tim McGraw Danny Boy? Because, that false Christan, spirit and words seems much more fruitful then yours buddy. You shall know the spirit of a man by his fruits ? Couldn't be much more clear then that brother. You sound awfully rotten with your commentary. You should lift your brother up, not tear him down.

WOW! Definitely the best film of 2017. This story will inspire you, challenge you to put forth more faith, and remind you that your loving Creator (Papa) loves, cares, and forgives His children more than you'll ever know. He (God, His Son, and Spirit) only wish to daily walk with you out of a personal friendship.

he also meant the religion some believe in is not all the same. everybody has a different belief ,

Ok

So.

burly636 Apparently you haven't seen the movie. God starts out as a woman in first parts, then is represented as a man. So apparently you may not have read the Bible either because in Genesis it says God made man AND woman in His image. The reference of "he" and "his" in the Bible is the general way we write about beings.

Abuse ridden? How exactly?

@@M11969 By stating that we will all be saved by a mkae believe entity, and that there is even a god - pure abuse for us all. This book should be burned, along with all of its promotion
