Controversy over the upcoming Noah film

[Wayne Wilson] Kugel’s making too much of these quotes. Of course, Kugel isn’t interested in the Bible as God’s word, which is why he ignores the plain statement of Gen 6:9 that he “walked with God.” Philo is about as wild an interpreter as one can find anywhere.
kugel actually isn’t trying to show either view as better. the more common view today is on the previous page. kugel’s point throughout the book is to show how the views we see as ‘common sense’ and ‘natural’ developed over time and weren’t always held as so obvious.

It doesn’t matter what the Bible says on this issue. People do whatever they want because there is no higher authority than our own minds. That is what this issue has become.

1 Kings 8:60 - so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the LORD is God and that there is no other.

All movies have their errors. Even in BJU’s “Milltown Pride”, the hero bats out of order in the last inning so that he can deliver the winning hit.

"Some things are of that nature as to make one's fancy chuckle, while his heart doth ache." John Bunyan

Ron, that’s not an error. That is the filmmakers’ attempt to show how God will sovereignly overcome all obstacles once you are saved to get you your best life now.
