Many scholars confirm that there is coherence and consistency in what is called biblical prophecy and that the ministry of Paul the Apostle is fulfillment of Amos 9:12 along with the work and ministry demonstrated by the Apostles in the book of Acts. In the early part of the book of Acts, the Apostles decide to share the message of Christ more so than rules and requirements of their culture when speaking to the gentiles. See Acts 11:1 and Acts 11:17-18.
Amos 9:12 says "...that they possess the remnant of Edom, and all the Gentiles who are called by My name," Says the Lord who does this thing. The book of Amos is in the Old testament. Amos is a recognised Jewish Prophet. He was a prophet during the reign of Uzziah king of Judah.
See the movie The Old Testament listed under Movies and views for more and also the Action Movie of the Week 2.
At any rate, some devout Christians believe that a dramatisation of the bible is as bad as a dramatisation of a Shakespeare play or is it just a good learning tool? What about the Little Rascals( sitcom) or Leave it to Beaver(sitcom)? Ultimately, we celebrate and enjoy news, movies, music and views that do not contravene the spirit and purpose of the ten commandments or that insight its contravention and that do provide a moment for edification like a good fable or proverb from the desert or an ancient land with present life application. We enjoy these in addition to the most enjoyable overt worship music, recorded sermons and videoed gospel based messages. I am going to go and dust off Giant Steps by John Coltrane and Rose Rouge by the Eagles. Ultimately, its a choice to be in a relationship with God and if the Kingdom of God is within you as Jesus said( see Romans 12 ), why would you ingest anything emotionally or spiritually that deliberately and purposefully offends that Kingdom in your private and leisure time, that is, as you might have a job as a film editor or story writer.
Last, the journey from Egypt to the promised by the Israelites involved the crossing of deserts and a move away from an inhabited place with a sure meal although one that came with a cost being of abuse and bondage.
The story of the passage into the promised land continues to be a moral every day because you are a person, young or old, and you are going to choose to have relationship with God or not. You might be offered money for intimate relations including lots of hugs without your shoes on. You might also be offered money to sell narcotics or illegal gummy bear candies called "exciting" I think. But, your Heavenly father believes in you and He will never offer provision for your needs in a manner that involves you leaving His house or your relationship with Him or hurting your neighbour or hurting yourself no matter how easy it may seem. The moral is to trust Him to provide in a way that is consistent with your relationship with Him as did the people Israel. Here, read Proverbs 11 and most importantly Proverbs 1. When sinners entice you, do not consent. God approves of you. You don't need to leave his House child to seek approval.
