Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
If Jesus wasn’t a Man, He could not die for the sins of mankind. If Jesus wasn’t God, His death would have no power over death and the grave, and we would “still be in our sins”
11. 2 Peter 1:1, our God and our Saviour –properly understood as “our God and Saviour” Greek translation (Granville Sharpe Rule),
12. There are also many verses in the Old Testament that foretell the coming of “God in the Flesh”, and even some pre-incarnate appearances of Christ called “Christophanes”- usually seen as “An Angel of the Lord” as in Gen 31:11-13 and Judges 13:2-23 and many other passages in the Old Testament.
Saying this film has anything to do with Attonement is a joke. ONLY Christ Jesus, the Messiah - "Annointed One", "God in the Flesh, could EVER attone for mankinds sins, and ONLY calling on Him, as God to save us can indeed "attone" and Redeem our Souls, through If God did not take on human flesh He could not have dies, if He wasn't God, His death would not have accomplished anything! "God has given us Eternal Life, and this Life is IN His Son" 1 John 5:11

@ThereISaHell - then there's little that you understand about the Atonement and much you have in common with the Jews who heard the Lord speak but understood him not. *Rolls Eyes*
@ThereISaHell - WOW!!! Are you threatened or what?? LOL!!! This video is a parable: A simple story used to illustrate a moral or spiritual lesson, as told by Jesus in the Gospels. This vignette simply illustrates how one man does something for the girl that she could not do for herself, and in doing so, he gave his life doing that. That is exactly what the Savior did for all of mankind when he atoned for each and every one of us. Don't be so threatened. Learn from a variety of sources.
It's typical of any cult that denies that Jesus IS God, and that you can earn God's favour by your own efforts. Not only does LDS deny the Deity of Christ, but they also say that He was the brother of Satan. To add insult to injury, they also say that God Himself was once a man, and therefore man can become God if he does enough "good". Sounds very much like what their "father" said in Genisis 3:5

It annoys me a little that the Mormons have hi-jacked this story in the name of religion. Its just the tale of a kind old man helping a little girl. No more.
I read this as a child and its the story of "Human" kindness and sacrifice.
I dont believe in God or Jesus but any decent human could do no less. Unless you say that as an Atheist I couldn't be as good as a Christian?

@ThereISaHell - I have no challenge in believing the Biblical Principle of a Pre-Mortal Life and that Satan had fallen from heaven. (The same heavens where we were ALSO and rejoiced in the plan that God had set forth.) I can prove in 3 simple passages spoken of in the Bible that we all lived before we came here... and that Jesus Christ is the Son of the living God and well as we are literally "Sons and Daughters" of God Almighty. We're not better designed Apes. Actual children of God.
@ThereISaHell - Nothing in Gen 3:5 goes against Man's potential to becoming like the father, aka God. Just because Satan is capable of speaking a half truth does not mean we aren't children of God. Satan has other clever half-truths that warp passages like, Romans 11:33. Satan would have us take spiritual guidance from the Nicean Creed given by uninspired men not prophets of God. People accept the un-biblical definitions of who God is in relation to us even though we're literally his offspring.
Ummm.... This movie also takes place in autumn/winter. That's why the leaves are falling.
It's an Easter parable. Meaning it is seen as a story that teaches the message of Easter. Last time I checked, the Easter message is true all year round.
The title caught my interest. Many years ago, I wrote a song "The Last Leaf" that was inspired ... "As I stared out the window, too numb to even cry, I saw a leaf against the cloudy sky. It clung in desperation to a naked maple tree. As I gazed all its strength came to me. Like the last leaf that refuses to let go while fallen leaves lie curled beneath the snow, I'm hanging on, hanging on to my dreams". Amazing how God opened my eyes to see that one leaf and gave me hope. THANK YOU JOSH!
@THELDSLIFE I am also very happy that we met! I recorded this song, just me singing and playing the piano, in a studio in Toronto, and had it put on a 45 rpm some years ago. The record is somewhere in my music file. Since then, my voice and singing style have changed. I'd love to re-record it. Thanks for asking. God is great!
It's a very touching story

5. John 20:28 – Thomas identified Him as God, - after He revealed Himself
6. Acts 20:28 “church of God – His own blood”,
7. 1 Timothy 3:16 – “GOD manifest in the Flesh”, aka “revealed in the flesh”
8. Philippians 2:9-11 – Identified as LORD - Jehovah,
9. Colossians 1:15 – “image” = exact in representation and manifestation
10. Hebrew 1:8 –the Father calls the Son God- this “Theos” is the same Elohim

I am open to discussuion about truth, but forst we must establish Who and What is th Truth and how was it personified? Is Jesus God?
1. Matthew 1:23 – “God with us” Isa.7:14, Matt.1:21 “call His name Jesus”
2. John 1:1 – “In beginning” (before time began) Eternal,
3. John 5:17-18 – Jews understood that Christ was calling Himself God = [Grk. 2470] isos (ee'-sos) = exactly equal in quality and quantity.

Actually this movie is pretty much true to the O' Henry if memory serves. It's not a religious parable. Its a story about how good humans can be.
