The blockbuster combination, The Da Vinci Code book and movie, are successfully hijacking Christianity. According to a 700 Club source, missionaries at Campus Crusade For Christ and reports from various Churches, Christians by the thousands are apparently being shaken to doubt the Divine Authorship of the Bible and the Divinity of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
Why are Christians falling prey to Hollywood’s hype and the secular marketing of The Da Vinci Code propaganda and believing the lie, packaged as truth, rather than rely on, lean on and adhere to the Word of God? The Bible predicted such an apostasy would take place in the last days and surely this symptom rather than cause doubt among Believers should fuel their faith to the reliability of the Word of God.
“In the beginning was the Word (Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God Himself” and “Every Scripture is God-breathed (given by His inspiration) and profitable for instruction, for reproof and conviction of sin, for correction of error and discipline in obedience, for the training in righteousness (in holy living, in conformity to God’s will in thought, purpose, and action). So that the man of God may be complete and proficient, well fitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work.”
Rather than fall for the same old gnostic heresies that prevailed during the early church, today’s Christian should be equipped and boldly outspoken against the The Da Vinci Code message which attempts to show Jesus as a merely “an historical figure of staggering influence, an inspired leader” and “a mortal teacher”. The underlying theme throughout the Da Vinci Code is that Jesus came to marry and celebrate the divine feminine (a familiar feminist gospel rampant today) and collect around himself an elite circle to further his earthly dynasty similar to the behaviors of gurus from India and other spiritual teachers.
The truth is Jesus came, not to win friends and influence public opinion (otherwise He wouldn’t have died on the cross) but to freely give His life for sinners. He said he came to separate those who believe in Him from those who reject Him. He came so that the blind may see and those that see (through human enlightenment and reasoning) may be blinded by the simplicity of faith in Jesus’ signs and wonders. (John 9)
He came to redeem mankind from our sin, an important prerequisite for those wishing to have a personal relationship with a Holy God. Jesus Christ, our High Priest, removed our impurities through His death on the Cross. He became our sin that we may become His Righteousness and live in the presence of God. What a Gracious trade. To reduce the mission of Jesus on earth to one of marriage with Mary Magdalene and parenthood is nothing short of perverse futility and should be an outrage to Christians not a vehicle of doubt.
A book and film battering the foundation of Christianity – how should we respond to the accusations? Paul writes in 2 Tim 4:2-5 that we should “Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage-with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist, discharge all the duties of your ministry.”
Since the beginning of time we, the living Church, have never had such an exciting challenge before us. We have a unique opportunity to converse with those asking questions about the Da Vinci Code. Through the two-pack special viewers can learn the truth of the authenticity of the Bible as proved by archeology and history. Indeed, the heresies perpetuated in the Da Vinci Code only legitimize the authority of Holy Scripture.
The Bible predicted that many, in the last days, would turn to lies and fables preferring lies to The Truth (Jesus said, “I am the Truth”). Rejection of Jesus was the human condition paramount even when Jesus walked the earth. These sentiments continued to grow in the early Church needing Paul’s continual warnings to be on guard against false prophets, false teachers and false teachings that denied Jesus Divinity and the simplicity of His Gospel of Truth.
Today, the ravenous wolves still proliferate and the naïve church is listening to the wrong shepherds and in turn, being led astray. Jesus asked His disciples, when public opinion (similar to today) questioned Jesus’ Divinity, “but who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter answered, “, the Son of the Living God.” And Jesus said, “Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.” It was on such a statement of faith that Jesus said He’d build His church. Oh! That we would be encouraged to be as bold in the Spirit today when those around us are asking, “who is Jesus, is he the one portrayed in the Da Vinci Code or another?”
