A hypothetical plot line...
So there is a God that is the maker of all things heaven and earth.
His final creation is given independent thought and turns on this benevolent God that had walked the wooded trails of the park with his creation.
He casts them out as punishment but still watches over them.
He stays with his creation in good and hard times allowing them to call on him when in need and still helping them where needed.
Fast forward this God take on the form of his creation and suffers that life for 3 decades only to be horribly put to death.
His final act as one of his creation he prays for universal forgiveness for them all.
Fast forwarding again,
His creation is abundant and many are fighting. The few are trying to say that the forgiven are few and that you have to buy the membership ring to be allowed inside. Once again hypocrites trying to keep themselves elevated above the rest and claiming their creators blessings only for themselves.
The Quandary: How could it be, that a God that would suffer and die to understand and forgive the sins of his creation going to refuse entry to all but a few self righteous jerks that he likely can not stand any more than when he kicked them out of his temple millennia before? Will not his great mansion in the sky be filled to the brim with his believers?
Is it possible that this God has more than one name and believers that follow him by each name?
To any that accept him he has said that their faults will be over looked; so how can it be that so many are refused the right to worship this creator of all things? Only those that do not accept him will be left out. No doubt that who we see in heaven may surprise many and those that were self righteous bigoted jerks will be ashamed. Then again could there be some of the people that despite their beliefs being awkward will see the kingdom again?
Just a thought for a plot line for a film that some one some where might make some day if anyone ever wants to do it.
-----------------------
It is not always what you do but often why you did it. Some jerks may be very well intentioned. Some nice guys just are jerks in fine linen so watch out that we try to do what is right rather than what is supposed to be done.

Good Post Brother Jacob!....but Hey!!! What happened to your photo?
Maybe a good name for the movie would be "The Last Temptation of Christ"
......No, not the one you'r thinking of, silly!. 
...the one where Jesus says, "Yo dude! I've had enough of this bovine scat. Take a dirt nap!" 
....Ehhh, just a thought....God's Peace and Love......To`na Wanagi
Thanks,
I'd like to see the end of the film. lol. I think it would be much more fun than the rest of the climactic lead in.
