Ohhhh the Drama!

Mrs. Witness

I just read a good thought on another thread and I want to use it on dubby. I have heard that the recent DC drama was not bible-based (i.e. no scriptural reference). Can someone give me a Cliff's Notes version of what the drama was about?

Have not been able to view myself, but I understand it is posted on youtube....I hope I get a chance when my wife is out to view......well maybe not for the content or the artistic value, but for the information and question formation value.

Basically it was all about field service and obeying the FDS.

It went down like this.

Shortly after his release from Patmos, John went around visiting all the congregations. At one, he meets a character named Scolios. Scolios is a well to do member of the congregation and some of the congregation work for him. Scolios says Christians should be doing more charitable works rather than more in the ministry work (suggesting that the preaching work is completed).

Naturally John disagrees with him and basically calls him an apostate.

Scolios sends his daughter to another city to work for a Roman businessman. He is very excited because it is a very good job for his daughter and she'll be making lots of money.

Meanwhile, as John is villifying Scolios and yammering on and on about sacrificing comfort and employment in order to go out in the ministry full time, word comes that Scolios' daughter is very traumatized and on her way back home.

When she arrives, she tells everyone that her Roman employer took her to the gladiator fights where she witnessed a boy-friend get mauled to death by lions.

Everyone is humbled and goes on and on about how wrong it is to seek material wealth or to do charitable works and that they should have listened to dear dear John in the first place.

Freakin' barf. Notice that this little "biblical" drama is not to be found anywhere in the bible.

Hi, I just looked for the thread with the YouTube link but I couldn't find it, so I posted a new one:

Did the apostate Scolioses also have a spinal condition? I heard that he was a crooked as a snake.

The drama, from what I have seen, is the opposite of genuine morals. Value creation is wrong, materialism is wrong, doing what is good for self or society but bad for the Filthful and Disgraceful Slavebugger is wrong.

Ladie Zombie THANKS for the briefing of the drama...I tried to watch it on youtube, but I couldn't stand to watch it more that 2 minutes....I have tried again to watch it , and I lasted 1 minute....

My God they are insane...a COMPLETE fiction of a Christian event that NEVER took place. They are going even beyond the written, to promote their wierd theology

Ohhhh the Drama!
