Avatar The best movie ever!
James Cameron Finds Jesus?
Did God speak to James 14 years ago, but he waited for
technologically to advance to produce it?

This is what the World will see.

Avatar Plot: The stories protagonist, Jake Sully (Sam Worthington), is a former Marine, who was wounded and paralyzed from the waist down in combat on Earth. Jake is selected to participate in the Avatar program, which will enable him to walk. Jake travels to Pandora, a lush jungle-covered extraterrestrial moon filled with incredible life forms, some beautiful, many terrifying. Pandora is also home to the Navi, a sentient humanoid race that are more physically capable than humans, although considered primitive. Standing three meters tall, with tails and sparkling blue skin, the Navi live in harmony with their unspoiled world.

As humans encroach deeper into Pandora's forests in search of valuable minerals, the Navi unleashes their formidable warrior abilities to defend their threatened existence. Jake has unwittingly been recruited to become part of this encroachment. Since humans are unable to breathe the air on Pandora, they have created genetically-bred human-Navi hybrids known as Avatars. The Avatars are living, breathing bodies that are controlled by a human "driver" through a technology that links the driver's mind to their Avatar body.

On Pandora, through his Avatar body, Jake can be whole once again. Sent deep into Pandora's jungles as a scout for the soldiers that will follow, Jake encounters many of Pandora's beauties and dangers. There he meets a young Navi female, Neytiri, whose beauty is only matched by her ferocity in battle. Over time, Jake integrates himself into Neytiri's clan, and begins to fall in love with her. As a result, Jake finds himself caught between the military-industrial forces of Earth, and the Navi, forcing him to choose sides in an epic battle that will decide the fate of an entire world.

This is what the Spirit filled Christian will see.

Covertness sinful man, go into a paradise to move beautiful peaceful people from their home because their home is sitting on the most valuable ore ever, they plan to go into their midst to betray them. However, Jake Sully happens to be a man with a pure heart, when he meets this beautiful high spirited girl after saving him, she tells him to get lost.

The Holy Spirit comes all over him from the Spirit tree, (God the Father) coming to the end when man comes to wipe the Navi out, Jake goes to God (Spirit tree and prays from his heart) his Navi girl friend tells him that God is there to protect, but He will not answer such a pray, but He did, God called all the Giant beasts to fight the war for the Navi.

The commander of the attacking forces was evil (could be Satan or the anti Christ) the Scene when they were worshiping God in unity was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen that is the way it will be in Heaven.

This movie in all aspects was the best movie ever, the Holy Spirit spoke to me all the way through, to the unbeliever he certainly would interpret the story differently, but I was so sure that this was of God that I hurried to see exactly who James Cameron was? Did he have an encounter with the Holy Spirit, or was this stealth evangelism directed by the Holy Spirit himself? Even if he did not know the kind of film he was producing, I am convinced this was of God.



According to a press release issued by the Discovery Channel, the documentary, "The Last Tomb Of Christ," produced by Oscar-winning director James Cameron, discovered the tomb in a suburb of Jerusalem in 1980.

Do you think it's possible that James Cameron discovered the skeleton of Jesus? Most Christians are not fond to James, but what was meant for bad, God could turn into Good, something like what he did to Paul.

"Christ told his followers that they would be hated by the world. Hollywood's continued unprovoked attacks against Christianity are no surprise to those of us who believe, since Christ himself told us it would happen. This is why you don't see us rioting in the streets every time our faith is attacked." — Danny (Midland, TX)

"In the last several years, Christianity-bashing has become not only common, but very popular. It's an easy, sure-fire way to make money because anytime you ridicule the beliefs of millions of people, it's an instant firestorm and generates enormous publicity." — Andy

"There are too many historical accounts and testimonies of what Jesus Christ did for all he encountered while here on Earth. He fed the multitudes, healed the sick and gave sight to the blind. These were not tasks completed by any earthly power, but that of God. He then sacrificed himself unselfishly so that we may spend eternity in heaven." — KW

"It is hard for Christians to prove to non-Christians that Jesus Christ was, in fact, the son of God. What is more unbelievable to some is the fact that, although this cannot be proven, Christians still put their faith and hope in Jesus of Nazareth as being the true and living son of God." — Brad

"Either you accept that the Bible is the inherent word of God, or you don't. Jesus was either the only begotten son of God, or the greatest liar known to humankind." — Elsie

“No, this claim is not possible. I am a Christian and I know that my savior Jesus Christ lives. He died on a cross, was buried in a tomb and rose again on the third day. When he rose again, there was nothing left in the tomb. He now sits at the right hand of God our father in heaven and is returning soon to take those who believe in him and live for him, back to heaven. How do I know this? Because he said he is returning soon. The Bible says so.” — Paul

“I would say the story isn't even 1 percent accurate. Either the evidence of Jesus death, burial and resurrection is 100 percent true, or it is 100 percent false. The Christian faith is based upon the absolute authority in what the Bible says is true and accurate (in its original languages.) ” —Micahel

8 months ago: Good movie. Just saw it with my wife, sons and some of their teen-age friends on a family outing. See it in 3D when you can.

As in any well written, good versus evil story, it is very easy to come a way with many spiritual insights.

Sure, we should never look for validation of our faith in things secular. That's a mistake.

However we can glean spiritual insights from movies and such when they are well-done and if we have eyes to see and ears to hear.

Where as a lot of the overt spiritual overtones of Avatar will frighten some insecure believers, when looked at in proper context, the movie can be a great spiritual conversation starter.

Brings entertainment to a whole other level for me.

8 months ago: This could also be interpreted as an anti capitalist movie pitting the evil corporatists against the nature loving hippies, or the evil imperialists against the indigenous aborigines, or the evil cowboys against the virtuous native Americans. They can all be tied together by the teachings of Jesus who spoke against greed and the love of money and for protecting the weak and the innocent.
What lessons does it hold for us today, and the fossil fuel industry that is destroying the worlds of the small island nations whose ancestral homes are sinking below the waves?
8 months ago: Yep.

I've heard people say similar things about "Happy Feet" and "Wall-E"

7 months ago: The movie was not meant to have you find God in it, and rationalize human's pitiful existence with a realization involving something as folly and made up as Christianity. It was a simple message. Human beings destroy everything they touch for their own convenience, and if someone has something we want, we make them our enemy, abd then take it calling any counter-attack an attack of terror. Christians are the cause for most of the bloodshed in history for these exact reasons, and somehow this movie helped you to find the legitimacy in Christianity? I think it's sad and almost disturbing that people find these things in such a beautiful and moving movie, and make it so ugly. If Jesus (who was a great and wonderful human being with an incredible message that Christians preach and usually fail to listen to) saw what humans have become today, I think his sadness would be unmatched by any other sadness anyone in the world has ever experienced

7 months ago: First of all, this is my perception, If you choose not to confess Christianity, and that is your FREE choice, rember "you win or you lose by the way that you choose". Authentic Christians, do not take advantage of others, right now in Haiti it's Christian Ministries that are helping and donating and also feeding the poor in North America, how much are you thinking of giving?
I far as the movie is concerned that is my interpretation. I know God is real, go back into my blogs and read them if you would like to.
7 months ago: It Saddens me to think people can watch a movie like this and that's what they take away from it. IT'S FANTASY. MAKE BELIEVE.

Besides in the movie they at least made their 'god' Eywa somewhat plausible. A neural network in the plants - that could act like a brain and store memories. (Though not omnipotent - therefore not really a god)

Wake up! You're probably old enough not to need you crutch, your imaginary friend, 'god', Yahweh or whichever one you prey to.

If religious people where to be represented in the movie they'd be the naive humans always ready to go to war. Killing the Navi or anyone else that was different. (Their religeous leaders making some excuse to do it other than the real reason: wanting friggin' unobtanium.)

7 months ago: Shaun, then explain to me how a network of plants can tell all the beasts, who are not connected to the network system to attack the attacking forces? Now answer the question, another thing. Why would all of those small floating living type flowers come and rest on him? What has that have to do with a network of roots? God looks on the heart, and he does not see a good one in you, and someday you will find the truth, but it will be too late, look at my profile, do I look like a naive person?

The very first day that the movie was released, I wrote on this site that it was the best movie ever made to date, well in just a few weeks it is the highest grossing almost 2 Billion dollars so far, do I know what I am talking about or what?
7 months ago: Hi Edward. Again it's a movie and fictional.
But they were going on about communication probably being electric because it was so 'fast'. And the Navi could 'connect' and talk to the beasts. The Navi could also connect to the earth/roots and communicate with Eywa. So why can't the beasts?

They also had the little 'tentacles' coming out of the ground touching normal humans and interfacing with them. So there was a connection even though humans can't 'plug into' the beasts like the Navi.

So just by touching the plant life the animals could have got the 'message' to attack.

Don't really know how the floating flowers fit in. Think they said they were seeds (which sorta represented souls/spirits to me). Even though looking like jelly fish.

Again it's all fictional, and they alluded to ideas and possible answers without giving definite answers to how everything works.

Maybe the came to rest on him just because he was different? His smell? Electrical energy he was giving off?

I agree a *very* good movie. Though probably a fair amount of the hype and box office sales probably due to the 3d and CGI. Probably not the best movie ever, but definitely up there. Makes my top 10 anyway.

And had a look at your profile now. You don't seem like naive person - other than your religious beliefs. Unless you have some proof god exists... And LOL at condemning me to hell - why do religious people always feel the need...

In all seriousness I'd strongly recommend you read Richard Dawkin's God Delusion. Was fairly concise. Or if you have I'd love to hear what you thought of it?

7 months ago: Visually its amazing but that can only do so much for a film thats plot wise is a cheap rip off of dances with wolves. with characters so stereotypical in behavior it rivals saturday morning cartoons. It starts off strong but you find yourself saying "allllrriiigghhhtt come on now" seldom at the start but as the movie goes you start to say it more and more. I like how these giant smurfs on birds defeat an army that uses fighter jets that are 150 years more advanced then ours today (Stealth bombers and fighters,) lol what a joke!

And if anything this film embraces some kind of pseudo-paganism. There is absolutely ZERO Christian innuendos of any kind. I saw on drudgereport headline the Vatican even didnt like this movie.

And just because a movie makes a ton a movie doesn't, in any way, add credibility to how good it is.

If this were so then NSync and the backstreet boys were the best music had to offer in mid-late 90s and Independence Day and Mission Impossible II were the best movies of those years, because they grossed the most $.
7 months ago: Agree with your comment that biggest turnover means it's the movie with the biggest turnover - not necessarily the best movie ever.

And er yeah it will add 'some' credibility - there will be some correlation.

And LOL at your comment re paganism and Christianity. Plenty of Christianity based/borrowed from paganism.

7 months ago: I heard on the radio today that they showed the 3D version to a bunch of indigenous people in South America, many of whom had never seen any movie before. They thought it was very similar to their struggle against oil drilling and development of their beloved forests. They thought it was pretty weird though that a white guy had to come in to save them.

7 months ago: I thought Avatar was a good depiction of the Gaia hypothesis, where the entire planet is an intelligent lifeform that regulates things like temperatures storms etc. Mother Earth gets upset when we destroy and abuse her. Could be all of these wicked storms this year are Mother Earth punishing us for our carbon footprints, and the the Earthquake in Haiti is punishment for denuding all of her forests.
See: http://buenomoksha.blogspot.com/2005/09/james-lovelocks-gaia-hypothesis-and.html
for a good description of the Gaia hypothesis.
7 months ago: I saw the movie and thought the 3-D effects were cool (not too-over-the-top. And your interpretation of the Christian Trinity is interesting. But what I know of God the Father, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit is that these three divine Persons or Spirits are at the same time one God. And God (Yahweh) is not in nature (that he created), like the diversely colored and painted objects in a picture-perfect masterpiece. Rather, God IS the Creator (the Artist) over the work of art (nature and man) who paints the masterpiece. And the masterpiece reflects the Artist's characteristics or attributes. Jesus Christ, the Creator of heaven and earth and Author of man’s salvation, came down from heaven to live as a humble servant among man on earth. He ultimately sacrificed his life on the cross for our sins so that you and I may have eternal life and live.

So I would have to disagree with your interpretation of the Christian Trinity in Avatar. The Na'vi are undoubtedly seeking something real and true and trustworthy in their sincere worship of the Spirit Tree. But the religion of the Na'vi is purely new age and pagan. And the object of their worship is a pagan god(dess). Their god is not Yahweh of the Old Testament nor Jesus Christ of the New Testament. There is nothing Judeo-Christian about the Na'vi's religion. There are however certain universal values found in the movie that are not only Christian but absolute across all cultures and all time. Sorry, I do not interpret the same in Avatar from what I know of the Trinity in the Bible. Open your heart to Jesus - the living water- and his unending love for you and taste and see that God is good. Watch him satisfy only what he can fill deep within you. Begin to see that he is trustworthy - always!



4 months ago: Movie SUCKED!!!!! James Cameron you should be ashamed of yourself. I hated the plot. WAY WAY too muck liberal earth bull****. It wasn't even that good anyway, but the message it delivers, trying to make us Americans look like total ****s who invade other countries for natural resources pisses me off! I will admit it is very visually compelling, but i will not waste my money to buy it on DVD.
