Christian Post Report – The cast of The CW’s “The Originals”

The second season of the hit supernatural TV drama series “The Originals” is definitely getting more intense and exciting as Dahlia (guest star Claudia Black) wreaks havoc in New Orleans and threatens the family who protects Baby Hope from her.

In the previous episode of the series, avid followers were able to witness the extremely powerful witch coming over to town with one thing in mind: to seize Baby Hope.

Desperate to ward off his evil aunt, Klaus (Joseph Morgan) opted to call on Mikael (guest star Sebastian Roche) to ask for his help. However, their acquaintance erupted into a violent conflict and ended up with the elder Mikaelson dead.

With the continuing threats from Dahlia, the upcoming episode titled “When the Levee Breaks” will see everyone working together to protect Hope as well as free New Orleans from the evil witch.

A synopsis posted on Dread Central indicates that the forthcoming segment will certainly set the “bloody showdown” between the forces of good and evil as Dahlia gives Klaus and Hayley (Phoebe Tonkin) a deadline to turn over Baby Hope or else hell will break loose.

With the intention to help his brother, Elijah (Daniel Gillies) will attempt to convince Klaus that they need to collaborate in their fight against their aunt. Klaus, however, will barge on ahead with his “own dangerous plan,” which will then leave everyone concerned about his next move.

Hayley, upon seeing the dire situation that she and her baby are in, will “devise a risky plan” that will enlist Aiden’s (guest star Colin Woodell) assistance.

The summary went on to mention that Freya (Riley Voekel) will prompt Rebekah (Maisie Richarson-Sellers) and Elijah about that thing she wanted. Marcel (Charles Michael Davis), on the other hand, will strategize a plan to make Klaus realize his “erratic behaviour.”

“The Originals” Season 2 airs Monday, at 8 p.m. on The CW.

Christian Post Report – FOX’s “Gotham”

The last episode of the hit crime-fighting TV drama series “Gotham” saw the future Catwoman and Batman taking on the case involving Reggie’s (guest star David O’Hara) attempt to end Alfred’s (Sean Pertwee) life.

With the help of Selina Kyle (Camren Bicondova), Bruce (David Mazouz) was able to track Reggie’s location. The young duo devised a plan to make Alfred’s friend speak about the assassination attempt.

Enraged and desperate to get his medicinal pouch back, Reggie tells the Wayne youth about the real situation as well as the people behind the espionage. He further warns Bruce never to let his hands get into the issue or else his life will be put in grave danger.

The confrontation ended up with Selina pushing the elderly out of a window, an act which gave the future Dark Knight a shock of his life.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with TVGuide, Bicondava and Mazouz shared their thoughts about Reggie’s ugly death.

“Part of her is glad she did it,” the 15-year-old dancer/actress told TVGuide. “[But] that’s her first kill. I think for anyone it would be traumatizing.”

Mazouz, on the other hand, says that such act from Selina will affect them in the future.

“The fact that Selina killed Reggie does affect Bruce and Selina’s relationship in a very significant way,” the 14-year-old actor said.

Meanwhile, the next episode titled “Under the Knife” takes on Gordon (Ben McKenzie) and Bullock (Donal Logue) continuing their investigation about the Ogre (guest star Milo Ventimiglia) whom Gordon sees as a threat to the people close to him.

As for Bruce and Selina, the youngsters will be dipping their noses even deeper into the controversy involving the corruption that has been going on in Wayne Enterprises. A series of promo clips shows the two planning to gain entrance on a charity ball.

Will Bruce be able to uncover the ugly secrets that his family’s company tried to hide from his eyes?

Christian Post Report – YouTube Screengrab: A&E’s original TV series ‘Bates Motel’

Things are definitely getting more interesting as the third season of the hit psychological horror TV drama series “Bates Motel” continues this week with a brand new episode titled “The Last Supper.”

The last episode of the show titled “Norma Louise,” gave fans the idea that there is really something going on between Dylan (Max Theriot) and Emma (Olivia Cooke) as they were seen getting closer like a couple.

Series creators Carlton Cuse and Kerry Ehrin weren’t able to confirm a romantic relationship between the two. Cuse, however, dropped some major hints pointing towards the likelihood of a “Dylemma”.

“Dylemma… that’s the best shipper term I’ve ever heard. That’s fantastic. The shipper term is worth having the characters have a relationship in and of itself. Dylemma fans out there, keep watching,” Cuse told Yahoo! TV News.

Ehrin, meanwhile, chimed in with the idea of the two ending up together.

Ehrin likens the issue to an “island” floating around a bigger “mainland.”

“She [Emma] and Dylan are islands that have floated around the Norma (Vera Farmiga)/Norman (Highmore) mainland without being attached to it,” she told The Hollywood Reporter. “[And] the fact that these two floating islands bump into each other [in the recent episode] is really interesting and it opens a new connection between them.”

As for this week’s showing, the official synopsis of the episode indicates that Norma (Vera Farmiga) will have to face a “big mess” when she arrives back at home after she went out of town.

Norman (Freddie Highmore), on the other hand, is recognizing his dwindling mental health and it is said that he will now conform to the idea of getting some proper professional help.

“Bates Motel” Season 3 airs Monday on A&E Network.

’19 Kids and Counting’ Star Jessa Duggar Pregnancy Rumors: Fans Spot Reality Star Shopping in Maternity Section

Christian Post Report – Jessa Duggar and Ben Seewald

There has been widespread speculation that Jessa Duggar may be pregnant by her husband Ben Seewald after a series of photos posted on the couple’s social media account were spotted by fans. Recent rumors further pointed out that the “19 Kids and Counting” star was spotted allegedly shopping for maternity clothes which many people believe are intended to fit her ever-changing figure.

On Friday, a Twitter user named @JayciMay2 claimed to have seen the TV personality browsing through the maternity and juniors sections at a local Ross store in Arkansas earlier this month.

“Here’s your scoop for today: I just saw Jessa Duggar looking at the maternity and juniors sections at the Ross in Rogers,” the Twitter post reads.

Fans were quick to speculate that that the 22-year-old could really be looking for clothing items for herself. However, several publications indicated that this might not be the case.

An Inquistr report draws out its theory from the date to which the tweet was posted.

“The tweet above was posted on April 2, a few days before Jessa’s nephew Israel was born. Israel was a late baby, so Jill Duggar was pretty huge by the time he made his big debut. Perhaps Jessa was just being a good sister by picking up some roomier clothes for Jill to wear during her last few days of pregnancy,” the media outlet wrote.

Enstarz speculated that the young Mrs. Seewald could only be at the clothing section perhaps to learn some “styling tips” that she could make use of when the time comes for her.

Back in March, Jessa and Ben shared a photo where the 19-year-old husband cradled his wife’s stomach. The photo, which made its way through Facebook, features the couple forming a heart shape using their hands and was placed over Jessa’s belly.

Jessa meanwhile opened up about her new married life with Memphis’ FM 100 during a live interview. She admits that she and Ben are “definitely past the point of side hug” and added that both of them are “definitely in love, and well on our way in this newlywed life. And we’re just loving it.”

ISIS Militants Ravage Oldest Christian Cemetery in Mosul, Desecrating Graves to ‘Eradicate Pagan Symbols’

A relative of a Peshmerga fighter killed in a suicide attack in Sinjar province, mourns after a burial ceremony at Mazar Sharaf Eldin, a sacred and a cemetery area for the Yazidi minority, north of Sinjar, March 2, 2015. A number of Peshmerga were killed and others injured after two suicide car bombs attacks targeted a building the Peshmerga were using for fighting, according to Peshmerga officials.

Christian Post Report – ISIS militants have been desecrating Christian graves and destroying entire cemeteries in Mosul, recording their actions on video, which they say are part of their efforts to “eradicate pagan symbols.”

Images of jihadists tearing down tombstones were spread through the terror group’s social media websites, and have been republished by sites such as Iraqi News.

Fides News Agency reported that one of the destroyed cemeteries was located at the Syrian Orthodox Cathedral, dedicated to St. Thomas the Apostle, which housed tombs of Christian soldiers who died during the Iraq-Iran war of the 1980s.

Cemeteries were also destroyed last week in Galilee in the village of Kufr Maronite Bir’im, with the Council of the Catholic Churches of the Holy Land condemning the devastation.

“The April 16 destruction of Christian graves in Mosul, Iraq, by the Islamic State is part of the organization’s ongoing campaign against Christianity, in the Middle East and throughout the Muslim world,” said Steven Stalinsky, executive director of The Middle East Media Research Institute.

Stalinsky told Fox News that ISIS is sending a strong signal to the West with these attacks.

“It is important to note that ISIS is documenting its destruction and desecration of Christian sites and its attacks on Christian communities, and on other minorities’ sites and communities, and is disseminating these images worldwide via social media,” he said.

“By doing this, ISIS is not only showcasing what it is doing, but is also mocking the West by demonstrating that it is doing so freely, with no one trying to stop it.”

ISIS has made Christianity one of its prime targets in its campaign to establish an Islamic Caliphate in the region.

It has killed Christians on a number of occasions on video, including one released on Sunday that documented the execution of 30 Ethiopian Christians in Libya.

ISIS has also been destroying Christian churches, statues, and crosses across Iraq. The terror group has sought to destroy Christian symbols, which it perceives as polytheistic and idolatrous, going against its implementation of Sharia Law.

Stalinsky said in another article back in March: “They don’t care what it’s called; they are just following their ideology and that means getting rid of churches and minorities. It is the Islamic State, and there’s no room for anyone else.”

‘Maze Runner 3’ Release Date, News: Could ‘Death Cure’ Be Split Into 2 Parts?

Christian Post Report – The cast of 2014’s young-adult adventure movie “The Maze Runner”

Despite the ongoing trend, 20th Century Fox’s newest young adult movie franchise, “The Maze Runner,” won’t be splitting its third and final instalment “The Death Cure.”

A report from Collider said that the final series of the science fiction dystopian action thriller, which was based on James Dashner’s 2009 novel, “is not being split in half.” The said title will have a February 17, 2017 release date.

The move will see a diversion from what other young adult movies like “The Twilight Saga (Breaking Dawn Part 1 & 2),” “The Hunger Games (Mockingjay Part 1 & 2),” and “Harry Potter (The Deathly Hallows Part 1 & 2),” have been doing.

In the midst of all these, a report from Movie Pilot pointed out Dashner’s Facebook post confirming that “Scorch Trials,” the upcoming second installment of the franchise, will borrow some plot points from “The Death Cure” (the third and final book of the series).

“As you can probably tell, there’s a little bit of Death Cure incorporated into the second movie. Movies are a different breed. It’s more like the second and third books were pit in a blender and poured out into what made best sense for the big screen. But it’s all there,” Dashner’s post read.

This would leave the screenplay writers with “less to adapt in way of the third movie,” hence the reason behind the third installment not cut into two.

“Without knowing exactly what plot points they’re shifting forward from the third book to the second movie, it’s hard to speculate where the direction of the third movie will go,” the site wrote.

“The Maze Runner: Scorch Trials” will open in U.S. theaters this Sept. 18. A new prequel of the book series titled “The Fever Code” is due for release in 2016.

God’s Throne of Grace

Hebrews 4:13-16

Christian Post Report – When sadness, depression, or loneliness assails us, we may feel as if there’s nowhere to turn. But God clearly tells us what to do when we’re in need: We are to go straight to His throne of grace.

  • Dr. Charles F. Stanley

    Dr. Charles F. Stanley (File).

The prophet Isaiah’s vision of this setting is so overwhelming that he cries out, “Woe to me! I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty” (Isa. 6:5 NIV). This throne room is filled with God’s glory, power, and radiant majesty—it is a holy place from which He rules over the entire universe.

We, like Isaiah, may feel unworthy, but God extends His great mercy and love to us from His throne, taking away our sin. We can approach God there once we have given our lives to Him through Christ. As we cry out to Jesus to save us because we know we can’t save ourselves, the door of heaven swings wide open, and we are ushered into the throne room. We are welcome because Jesus is our intercessor—He gives us access to the God of all creation. Because He walked where we walk, and He sympathizes with our weaknesses.

Jesus was tempted just as we are but never sinned and always remained one with the Father. He invites us to follow in His steps. His death and resurrection make it possible for us to receive mercy and grace at all times. So, instead of sitting alone in our pain, outside this wonderful place where we’re always accepted, we should run through the open doors, straight into the presence of our Father.
