copelandlb Its sad they put stuff out like this. It's not entertaining it's a seed for confusion. I pray against the influence of this movie both on believers and unbelievers that have lack of understanding when it comes to the truth of the gospel and having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. The Bible is right and all that hasn't accepted the gift of redemption to establish righteous relationship with the holy, true and living God, through Jesus Christ who came, died, and rose again with victory over death, hell, and sin.

Robertson Tirado A well crafted film, I was interested how they were going to approach the controversial topic of religion and its doctrine Hell. I was excited to see this film because, I don't believe in hell or the trinity. The low rating must be from those who believe in hell, but a good film should make you think about your core beliefs and maybe make you a little mad. Then the actors did their job, the bishop was believable and outstanding, the calm of the movie was real. Growing up in bible study I can see this happening this way. I've learned something interesting about Isaac Newton who is considered one of the smartest man who ever lived he didn't believe in the trinity but kept his findings in his journals because he said the leaders weren't ready for a change, I wonder what he would say about hell? This movie didn't offend me because through research I've already known hell is a made up teaching, you can find things in the Bible to support hell and the trinity but were these teachings come from would amaze some if they diged for the truth. This movie is an awakening for those who question the status quo.

sondra-13 Come Sunday, to me, is an amazing film. It is a look inside the belief system of fundamentalist Christians. This is not the belief system to which I have ever belonged. So watching Carlton Pearson's transformation and how he was ostracized for his revelations, moved me greatly and kept me riveted. They assembled some truly great actors for this film, from Chiwetel Ejiofor, to Martin Sheen. Based on a true story. It was apparently difficult to have this film made due to the subject matter and fears of protest. I'm personally very glad they were able to get it done. Not to put down those who sought to punish Rev. Pearson for abandoning their tribe, but because it was so uplifting how he found his true path and offered hope for others. I look for transformation in characters as I watch serious films. This film and it's actors transformed as few films do. I highly recommend this.

BasicLogic Evangelist Carlton Pearson in this film raised a very serious question and a more reasonable doubt: "If there's no Hell, then there would be no Heaven; if there's Heaven, then there's no God; if there's God, then He(?) is a Monster!". Well, Heaven and Hell are like inseparable twin, if Hell suddenly becomes non-exist, then Heaven couldn't be stand alone. Hell is like the foundation to enable the existence of Heaven, if the manually and purposely created God suddenly tell the believers there's no Hell, then Heaven would immediately become meaningless. Hell is a mean to scare people to believe in God, then get a passport to Heaven. If you don't believe in God, then you will go to Hell. But if Hell does not exist, then people don't have to believe in God anymore, if you don't believe in God, then there's no such thing called Heaven or Hell; the trio won't be possible to exist. The religions, not just the Christian or the Catholic, or Islam, they all use Heaven and Hell to either give false hope to believe in God or to scare people not to believe in God. The Earth is just like a dust in the vast and boundless universe, the Sun that gives light and heat to the Earth, if compares to other stars in the Galaxy, it's just another tiny dust which is only larger than the Earth, the Solar System where the Earth belongs to, is also like a tiny, meaningless group of dust. All the creatures including human beings are even smaller than an atom or nuclear on the tiny dust of Earth. The gravity that making people stand upright on this micro globe-like dust getting an illusion of up and down, over and below. Then some of the cunning scheming conspirators created the God, Heaven and Hell. Don't raise your head and your eyes to look upward and think that Heaven is up there and Hell is down there, because this tiny dust globe we call it Earth is actually floating and moving with its Solar System in the Galaxy, there's no up or down. The Universe is so big, so boundless to imagine and it still expanding in the vast Void. No God, none whatsoever could really handle this Void. Neither Heaven exists up there, nor Hell down there. Hell does not mean it exists under your feet, or fathomless down below where you stand. In California, you can own a piece of land on this tiny global dust, but regretfully, any things under 300 feet will not be yours, it belongs to the State of California. Why? Because "Oil" or "Shale Oil" might exist under 300 feet. What about Texas? Well, you have to ask the State of Texas.In this film, Evangelist Carlton Pearson threw a curve ball to all the believers, not just a "What If" theory but an affirmative "Is", because he claimed that God had spoken to him, telling him there's no such thing called "Hell". His blaspheme sermon caused a disastrous panic and shock to the believers who attended his church. Why? The reason is like what have already been analyzed above: "If there's no Hell, then what's the purpose of believing in God?" Because Heaven and Hell is what makes people to scare being bad that would condemn them to Hell, the opposite Heaven is why and how they choose to be good; if they are good, if they believe in God, they'd be good, so they'd be qualified to go to Heaven. Without Hell that'd condemn the bad people to go, then Heaven would suddenly become so meaningless, then it could mean all the people, good or bad, they'd all go to Heaven? NO!!! God forbid! Heaven forbid!! Only we good people can go to heaven! Heaven is the privileged final resort for us, the good believers, and yes, there are indeed good people who are not God believers, but Heaven is a private club that only accepts God believing members, so it also means being good is not enough, you've got to believe in God to get a membership of the Heaven Club. BUT if there's no Hell, such membership of going up to Heaven would not be available. Therefore, the premises raised by Evangelist Carlton Pearson is like a bomb exploded inside the Church and its Believers were all shell-shocked. It's a lose-lose exclamation, everybody except the non-believers would be certified loser. It's a never ending contradiction, a subject or a topic that no believers would like to face or to deal with. I saw Evangelist Carlton Pearson in this film wearing pure gold chain, pure gold bracelet and gold watch. He and his wife lived in a million dollars house, driving a big Mercedes-Benz sedan. He, as an Evangelist preacher, he's not just an eloquent preacher, he's also a great singer. Everybody praises the Lord with sublime hymns, by singing those songs to praise God, the Lord of Jesus, all the church goers were moved deeply and affected by those words and the rhythms of the hymns they sang. When Carlton suddenly claimed that God had talked to him and told him there's no Hell, half of the church members stood up and left immediately like an Exodus. Inevitably, it also meant that "Come Sunday" donations to the church would then dwindled in half. And there were so many unavoidable expenses that even a church got to deal with. If the revenue suddenly reduced 50%, nobody could survive, the church, the choir, the believers including Carlton his wife would be like in an immediate Hell situation. So even they know there might be a Heaven, but nobody likes to go there too soon.
