The Lost is Found (Animated Christian Movie)

The Lost is Found (Animated Christian Movie) Jesus uses the lives of Miriam, Jonah and Matthew along with the parables of the lost coin and the lost sheep to show how mercy, forgiveness and love are generously extended to all sinners. One sinner's repentance is rejoiced by many. The Lost is Found is the story of three sinners, Miriam the harlot, Jonah, a sick man, and Matthew the publican. The parables of the lost coin and the lost sheep are weaved into these three stories to show forgiveness for all sinners who repent. The video opens with Miriam working in a pub as a waitress and harlot. She is trapped in this life due to debt and guilt. A letter comes from her brother, Jonah, to the house of a scribe. The scribe reads the letter which tells of her brother's expected death. The scribe does not invite Miriam inside his house because he believes a sinner should not enter the house of the righteous. He goes to Miriam in the streets to offer her ten coins so that she might start a new life. The parable of the lost coin is weaved into the story of Miriam as she loses one coin, and all rejoice when the coin is found. Miriam tries to escape her life only to be betrayed. The video moves to the story of Jonah. He is lying sick in a bed and cannot be moved, so his friends carry him on his bed to see Jesus. They have heard of Jesus' many miracles. Once they are at the home where Jesus is teaching, the crowd will not allow them to enter. The friends climb up on the roof and lower the bed with Jonah down into the house through an opening in the roof. Jesus knows of the faith of Jonah and his friends and forgives Jonah of his sins. The teachers in the home think Jesus is committing blasphemy by forgiving sins. Jesus asks the teachers which is more difficult, to forgive sins or to tell the sick man to rise, take your bed and walk? In order to show that the Son of Man has authority to forgive sins. Jesus tells Jonah to rise, take his bed and walk. Jonah does as commanded by Jesus and thanks Him for his forgiveness. Jonah and his friends rejoice. Jonah leaves to find his sister, Miriam, and tell her of the miracle and the forgiveness of Jesus. The last story is of Matthew and the tax collectors. Jesus invites Matthew to follow him. Matthew follows Jesus and invites the tax collectors to his house to meet Jesus at a great feast. Some teachers cannot believe that Jesus, a holy man, eats with sinners. One teacher goes up to the home and asks to see Jesus. When the teacher is inside, Jesus knows of his question and tells him that the doctor goes to the sick, and He goes to the sinners. The video ends with the parable of the lost sheep. This parable is weaved into the story of Jonah trying to find his sister, Miriam. After many hardships, the boy shepherd finds his lost sheep, and Jonah finds his lost sister. Jonah tries to persuade his sister to go and see Jesus. At first she refuses because she thinks of her many sins. While Jesus was having dinner at the home of a scribe whom questions Jesus actions, Miriam appears and washes Jesus' feet with oils and her hair. As she is crying and worshiping Jesus, the scribe wonders why Jesus does not rebuke her. Jesus tells the story of the debtors who were forgiven by the lender, and how they loved their lender for forgiving them. Miriam's faith saved her, and her sins were forgiven. In the end, Miriam is seen traveling to Jonah's home, free of the pub owner, and they rejoice together.

Not to start an argument here but you say,

Please seed. Let each one of us who call ourself Christians seed 2-3 movies each. So that these movies may become a blessing to all those who are hungry for God's word & grace. May Jesus bless all those who are seeding the christian torrents.

If you want people to buy them why are you creating the torrent here for anyone to download for free? And if you are a Christian, why are you illegally sharing a copyrighted video?
Again I am not trying to start and argument here but just curious why you would do this.

I have already answered this question in the movie description column of
Just to put it in other words, there are two main reasons for uploading the movies/documentaries knowing they are copyrighted. Firstly these movies are not available in the third world countries. Christian media and literature is banned in nearly half of the countries of the world. In the first and second world countries a few may be aware but they think they have outgrown the concept of God...poor fools. Consequently the net result is what we see today. You can get any damn blasted film on the net. But talk about Christian films........how many are there on the net? Secondly it is to make Christians aware of these films. There are many Christians here in India who will download the film, watch it and then buy it in the markets (including extra copies to be distributed to their neighbors). With so many films pretending themselves as Christian films these days, the choice for them is very difficult indeed given their tight budgets. Some of them have nothing to do with Christianity yet they are marketed as "Christian films". Many Christians buy a few of these films, are totally disappointed and finally end up never buying any "Christian movie" after that. It all comes to the great statement of Paul which makes total sense to me in the end - "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms." (Eph 6:12)

I do see your point here. I did not realize you were in another country. We here in America really take God and religion for granted. We do to the point of almost destroying it. I am now downloading this torrent and will watch it. If I feel I can get behind it I will copy it for others and share. I do hope my first comment was taken with the intent it was meant. I thank you for your thoughtful and thought provoking response. Maybe if more Christians would share we would have better entertainment to share with all the world rather then some of the trash that is out there today. Pray for me as I will pray for you and your cause.

What then? notwithstanding, every way, whether in pretence, or in truth, Christ is preached; and I therein do rejoice, yea, and will rejoice. Philippians 1:18.
It is true that the distribution of copyrighted material is illegal. Copyright prevents any individual to gain profit from the works of other individual. That is why copyrighted materials should not be shared much less distributed for profit.
But I believe there is a special case in christian materials uploaded. First is that it is centered towards sharing the gospel or other christian materials that could build up christians in other parts of the world. Second is that it is not intended for profit or cutting the profit of the producer. In fact many christians would buy it after watching it.
Compare that with other softwares that have been cracked or hacked for reasons other than spreading the gospel.
In the above verse, Paul never really minds whether Christ is preached honestly or not as long as He is preached. The same reason I now present to all of us specially to christian uploaders.

Stealing is stealing.
Before you give yourself a pass to download/try-before-you-buy, why don't you ask the animators and see what they feel about it?
You don't know the whole truth on what their contracts are, and that if they only get paid if the amount of sales reach a certain amount.
Religion and commerce don't always coincide.
Downloaders, no matter the religion, are taking away from the livelihood of artists.
Though shall not steal! Simple as that.
