Da Vinci Code: False Portrayal of Jesus Christ
Da Vinci Code, is a controversial issue nowadays. It is a direct attack & slap on the face to Christian believers. The novel written by Dan Brown is very alarming.Dan Brown's Da Vinci code will be shown in theatres this May, released by Sony pictures & starred by Tom Hanks.
It leads some believers of Christ into confusion. The potrayal of Jesus Christ in this piece is fictional. It also implies that the catholic church has been covering and hiding the truth about Jesus Christ.
The as summarized goes something like this: A symbologist was called to analyze Da Vinci's Masterpieces. In unlocking the code, he was lead to series of mysteries & secret that has been hidden for eons. Dan Brown's work depicted that the Catholic Church will do everything to cover up the factual truth about Jesus Christ.
The Christian Community is being mislead & gives them false ideas & negative thinking that the messiah we are long worshipping as God is not a God but human,He died & was not resurrected, was married to Mary Magdalene & the two had a child.
The novel fact page includes the following:
The bible was established by a pagan Roman Emperor, Mary Magdalene instead of Peter was the one who brought up the early church, The Catholic Church will do everything to murder all descendants of Christ, They will also keep on with conspiracy to hide the truth about Jesus. The gospel has been edited, the bible was not heaven sent. Mary Magdalene is to be worshipped as a goddess and that there is still a secret group called Priory of Sion who acknowledge Mary Madalene as goddess. These are some of the nerve wrecking facts that were stated in the novel.
Da Vinci was also pictured as the leader & promoter of the conspiracy, keepin the secret about Christ. The novel indicated that Leonardo has placed some symbols & codes to his artworks. One of these works is the Popular "The last Supper Painting" which was described that seated at the right hand of Jesus was Mary Magdalene. Dan Brown's imagination is nothing but baseless. The one he was describing as Mary Magdalene is in fact the youngest disciple of Christ ,John. Leonardo Da Vinci was said to be a part of a congregation called Opus Dei.
As a Christian i really find the novel uncanny. Not only does it contain baseless & false information about Jesus it also suggest a strong idea that the Christian faith is worthless. Human knowledge is limited, hence they cannot provide valid & strong evidence about Jesus as being married to Mary Magdalene. If they really do have a daughter what's her name? If they got married where did it took place? Where was Mary Magdalene's first church? There are so many things that are contradicting in Dan's Brown Da Vinci Code. As for me my faith is strong & i stand firm in what i believe. That Jesus is the Son of God, & the true Messiah.

Post a CommentFor a secular analysis of the Last Supper, see:

The article suggests Judas was following Jesus orders, and that the Cleansing of the Temple was an unsuccessful attempt to start a general revolt against the Romans and the turncoat high priests.
It was a poorly written book and a forgettable movie. Don't let your faith (whatever it may be) be damaged by a novel.
it's a stupid theory!
The book and the movie are "historical fiction", meaning real events, people and places were interwoven with make believe. It isn't theology or history - it's a mystery novel. Theories and fiction don't frighten me or change what I believe!
WHEN I FINISHED WATCHING THIS MOVIE I WAS CONFUSED. I HAD SO MANY DOUBTS UNCERTAINTIES, NOT TO MENTION THAT I ALREADY DIDNT KNOW MUCH ABOUT THIS MATTER. IT'S RATHER AN UNEASY SUBJECT, WHICH MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND. THIS THOORY SEEMS EVER SO POSSIBLE, THE ONLY PROBLEM BEING THAT I DONT THINK IT'S TRUE. I'VR ALWAYS HAD FAITH AND BELIEVED, AND HONESTLY : WHAT MAY HAVE HPPENNED REALLY ISN'T GOING TO CHANGE THAT. THE ONLY THING I AM SURE ABOUT IS THAT ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH OUT LORD JESUS CHRIST. AND IF THIS IS THE WAY PEOPLE PERCEIVE OUR PAST THEN SO BE IT, BECAUSE DESPITE WHA HAPPENNED I DONT FEEL BETRAYED IN ANY WAY.
In your defense, Ana, (as if you actually need to be defended against erroneous criticisms!): Regarding the naive supposition that if one refers to �facts stated in the novel,� that such �facts� must be true: While some may actually be true, when referring to �facts� in any novel, they are by definition looked upon as fiction inasmuch as a novel is, by definition, considered to be fictional prose.
Religious philosopher Desiderius Erasmus, considered even today as perhaps the most brilliant mind of the 15th-16th centuries and the first to translate the original Greek New Testament to English, studied Christ and his teachings in depth concluding that not only was the history absolutely factual, but the divine authority and church Christ established soon corrupted after his apostles were killed, and therefore all the churches emerging afterward were without divine authority and their rites and baptisms invalid. Churches changed the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit into a single God by their Nicene Creed, replaced apostles and prophets with popes, etc. His prolific writings elaborate church abuses and evils in cutting humor. The fact that this brilliant mind believed the New Testament with passion enough to translate it from the original Greek is a another strong witness of its authenticity.
(contd. from below) It is an insult to those who honor God and who reverence sacred things.
Written historic events as far as they actually happened are most certainly true events (truth), and as far as such writings are embellished are not true events, they are plainly falsehoods. It is unreasonable for intelligent beings to deny the bulk of most written history inasmuch as all history is dynamic, occurring hour by hour and known among many eye witnesses and often by thousands of secondary witnesses. Can any sane man of normal awareness and intelligence deny the terrible events of �9-11� just because he was not there in person by saying they never actually happened�-that in retrospect they were too fantastic to believe, and therefore could not be actual fact? The seasoned historian accepts written history based upon abundantly witnessed facts. The Bible is the world�s most enduring, complete, and most witnessed history, and it includes God throughout! You are right. The "Code" is a farce designed to bring in big bucks. It�s an insult to those who honor God and who reverenc
" The bible was established by a pagan Roman Emperor, Mary Magdalene instead of Peter was the one who brought up the early church, The Catholic Church will do everything to murder all descendants of Christ, They will also keep on with conspiracy to hide the truth about Jesus. The gospel has been edited, the bible was not heaven sent. Mary Magdalene is to be worshipped as a goddess and that there is still a secret group called Priory of Sion who acknowledge Mary Madalene as goddess. These are some of the nerve wrecking facts that were stated in the novel." The Priory of Scion was made-up, but the rest of these things have no way of being proven false. Furthermore, you shouldn't call them "facts" if you don't believe them.
