Because It is not in the bible that Matthew helped Jesus write the sermon on the Mount.

Maybe ask it a different way? Are you hearing me that I've given you an answer, but somehow you are looking for something else, and I don't know what that is?
Much love!
I'm sorry to interrupt your discussion of me, just to say, I recall giving an answer, without asking a question.
Much love!
I'm looking to see if he'll answer the question I asked. Some people just go with the party line, "God created man to glorify Himself". or things like that, failing to realize His real purpose.
Anyway, I always say, if you want clear communication, communicate clearly. Our little word plays or whatever always make sense to us, but not always to others.
Much love!
No, it's not incorrect. Hubris that you think you know what my friends think! Amazing!
Much love!

Nothing is ‘just’ one thing as it relates to other things. Yet, The Chosen remains entertainment.

See the double standard? You think you know what my friends at The Chosen think! Amazing.
Don't you see? We're not talking about a car forum. And we're not talking about Dragnet. We're talking about the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and the relationship between God and man, and this guy likes to play fast and loose, and makes up stories, for whatever reason he says, I don't care.
Much love!
Quote so I can remember the post. Or are you just making up a witty reply, who cares if I've actually done what you've said. It plays well, right? Makes the point? So what if it's not true?
Birds of a feather?
Much love!
It's an interesting clue, but I think it points the wrong way. I quoted Jesus prayer (this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ Whom You have sent) because I think that best embodies God's purpose in creating man, and in sending Jesus to redeem man, and restore that original design.
We can only really speculate about God's reasons at the core, but what I think is this. God created man so that God could share Himself with man. God is the ultimate love and lover, and knows His love and His goodness is the best ever that anyone could have, and so He made us to be recipients of His love and goodness.
Maybe that's what some consider a "side benefit", and so don't like my answer, but it IS my answer.

Peter had overdue taxes? Really? Trouble with Rome? Struggling to pay?
Could you quote the passage please?
List of The Chosen episodes - Wikipedia
In Capernaum, AD 26, Mary Magdalene (Elizabeth Tabish), going by the name "Lilith," wrestles with demonic possession. While the Pharisee Nicodemus (Erick Avari) is touring the region, Praetor Quintus Benedictus Dio (Brandon Potter) approaches him, demanding help collecting unpaid taxes. The tax collector Matthew (Paras Patel) deals with the turmoil of being considered a traitor by his fellow Jews. The fishermen Simon (Shahar Isaac) and his brother Andrew (Noah James) struggle with their tax debts to Rome. At a centurion's behest, Nicodemus goes to the Red Quarter to perform an exorcism on "Lilith" but fails, leaving him shaken. On tax day, Andrew cannot pay, but Simon tells Matthew that he has an arrangement with Praetor Quintus; the arrangement is to inform Praetor Quintus about his fellow Jews fishing on Shabbat, but Andrew disapproves, considering it a betrayal. Mary Magdalene loses hope for her condition until she encounters Jesus (Jonathan Roumie), who calls her by her name, healing and restoring her.
And if you don't know such a passage, why slander one of the Lord's Apostles?
I daresay you've now gotten a false impression of Peter from this blasted TV show. And in all this it's mingled in your mind so you think Peter was a tax cheat or something!
Matthew 17:24-27 KJV
24) And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute?
25) He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings of the earth take custom or tribute? of their own children, or of strangers?
26) Peter saith unto him, Of strangers. Jesus saith unto him, Then are the children free.
27) Notwithstanding, lest we should offend them, go thou to the sea, and cast an hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a piece of money: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
This is the real story. Not that Peter was a tax cheat or was in trouble with Rome. From what I've studied this is the half shekal temple tax, not even having to do with Rome.
Much love!

Recently "fake Jesus" is on "The Tonight Show" trying to sell '"The Chosen" series.
He's been all over the internet, and on quite a few talk shows, IN THE last few weeks.
So what went horribly wrong with such a beautiful series, starting about "season 3". ??
Well, here is what happened...
Jesus wouldn't heal a cripple, and that is because "The Chosen's Jesus" is an idiot Calvinist/Hyper Calvinist.
See, Dallas Jenkins, is a 5 point Hyper Calvinist, whose purpose in creating this show, is to sell you Hyper Calvinism.
He was very clever.......and what he did, is He Hooked the entire Planet on this show, the first 2 seasons, by keeping Lying TULIP = the "5 points" of Hyper Calvinism , out of it.. and then, once the big money had rolled in from all the DVD-Blu-Ray, sales, and T-shirts sales, and " watch = buys"... had filled up $$$$$$$$$$$$ the "coffers"... he slowly and insidiously begain to insert Hyper Calvinism, into the series.
Initially he did it with the cripple that Jesus won't heal, from about Season 3, and then most recent is when Jesus stood there looking lost and confused, as RAMAH bled and died in an episode....because Jesus would not HEAL. her, as she lay there BLEEDING to death in front of Him.
So, what is Dallas Jenkins teaching the viewers?
He's teaching them that Hyper Calvinism, "pre-destined" Ramah to die... so that kept Jesus from saving her life, even tho he was standing there watching., = and so that is a demonic Jesus, who refuses to heal.
Find that in a BIBLE.
You can't.......but you can find it when Hyper Calvinism show up in THE CHOSEN.
Welcome to a "doctrine of devils" and that is how it looks when you see it being TAUGHT by "THE CHOSEN".

The issue is that Jesus was writing and revising the speech in the Chosen. But he was told exactly what to say, like is mentioned in John 12:49-50, so revisions should not have been necessary.
The way I imagine it happened in real life is Jesus was completely unprepared for the speech. The disciples had no clue what he was going to say until he said it. He might not have even known what he was going to say in advance.
That's right, I forgot about that. Whereas the Bible says that Jesus healed EVERYONE who came to Him. Everyone! It was a big deal!
But Dallas Jenkins thought he knew better.

Do you mean that God spoke through Jesus?..Wherefore why would Jesus have needed to prepare a speech?
As he already knew that his Father was going to speak through him..
