Left Behind: Rise of Antichrist
Apocalypse is one of the most under-discussed topics in faith-based movies. Though this is linked to many reasons, we must give some respect to the producers for bringing this drama to the big screen, regardless.
The movie, “Left Behind: Rise of the Antichrist” is a sequel to 2014’s Reboot which leaves some of the cast stranded after the rapture took place. Subsequently, the movie shows the aftermath of the rapture and the new world order. Apparently, the world now has a new single central government, and the stake is higher than ever before.
If you love to see movies about the end times and the events that are bound to occur, then “Left Behind: Rise of the Antichrist” is a movie to watch.
Come Out in Jesus Name
Also on this list of new 2023 Christian movies recommended for lovers of faith-inspired movies is “Come Out in Jesus Name.” From all indications, the movie was a huge success after its release in March. It attracted a 97% audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes and also topped the charting board.
As the title suggests, “Come Out in Jesus Name’s” thematic preoccupation is deliverance and miracle ministries in Christianity. This follows the ministry of popular American Pastor Greg Locke and others who manifests the power of God in casting out devils and delivering the possessed. So, you can expect to see some drama, suspense and spiritual manifestations when you watch the film.
