I love Morgan Freeman.
Thank you for letting us know , I will watch it.
Most people even Christians at times have this same question, who is God? I don't see any christian links bashing the show.
I can almost tell you the conclusion..lol all religions have basically the same ideas about God but in the christian faith, God is reachable through Jesus Christs death. Otherwise we are untouchable due to mans sin, while the blood of Christ makes us clean again for God.
Most religions acknowledge Jesus lived, but do not believe God would come to us as a poor man.
Many religions ,even some in the christian faith make it about fear, when it is not about fear at all.
Jesus came and taught us how to live life without fear, and find His peace through life's difficult times.
I am looking forward to this..

This show won't go into that much detail trying to justify or explain your religion. Do you think? But then they'll have to try and explain Mohammad and Joseph Smith.
And will the show explain the history of religion.
I love shows like this. They put in to words all our questions. They make us think. So many only know what our preacher and parents and grandparents have told us.
What world religions are there really? It seems to me that they all seem to revolve around the God of the Bible
Coincidence?
Some may refer to Hinduism, but by in large that religion is only practiced in one region of the globe.
Most all religions revolve around the premise of heaven vs. hell. Those who do "good" go to heaven and those who do "evil" go to hell. You can then only hope that your good outweighs your bad. However, Christianity deals upon another premise. That premise is that your "goodness" is not enough to outweigh your "badness". The only hope is through Christ and his righteousness.
The thief who died next to Jesus is a prime example of this. He was condemned to die for his wickedness and was saved by mere faith in Christ.
