Karla Faye Tucker: Forevermore

I have to say when I read Karla's story, saw an episode of 'Law & Order' loosely based on it and found a movie had been done I thought it might be from the Lifetime network. After 2003's 'Monster', I didn't expect 'Forevermore' to play fair with the rules governing convicted female killers. This film doesn't feature a big star playing the titular role or go into the fictional realm. It does however play up it's religious, romantic and redemption themes to the hilt.

Crusty female "Prison Official" (writer, director Helen Gibson) makes a pass at preacher Dana Brown (Kenny Jezek), but his heart belongs to one woman. Convicted murderer Karla Faye Tucker (real life wife Karen Jezek) aka "pickax killer". Thru meetings, correspondence he falls in love with a soul he feels has been reborn into a higher spiritual power. Their bond becomes deeper, they marry as public sentiment, support grows as she awaits execution on death row until that fateful day and the aftermath is all that remains.

There's a lot of positivity is the nice way of saying things. Contrived scenes where Karla is shown to have changed thru the involvement of the lord & even the most hardened faces like prison lady soften their stance. Murky flashbacks hint to a time when Karla was on the wrong path making bad decisions. Obviously downplaying the murders (they're not shown) little mention of gruesome details. Choosing to focus on the bitter criminal justice system faces looking to impose a cruel sentence. Falling in love, talk of God. Get used to seeing her prison "cell", people laying on beds, sitting in offices for the majority of the 2 hour runtime.

Religious motivational speakers in prison, Karla's holy transformation, uplifting music. Not only am I the wrong audience for 'Forevermore' but I strongly disliked, disagreed with it's point of view. There's talk to be had about the death penalty and whenever it's right or wrong, but it seems people only get bent of shape when a woman is involved.

Ignorant people that have not suffered or have been through anything are known anything other than themselves and limited knowledge can't understand or love this movie .

But I've watched it three times and love it and suggest it to be seen to everyone the non-believer, believer, and beyond that is converted to the faith of Jesus that is not taught anymore .

And People going to church are people seeking God They may be seeking in places that are not teaching the full truth though ... But they seek him because they're imperfect and know it that they need convert to his ways of righteousness that by his son who Is the ONLY high priest of the faith of God . We need to convert to it .

That's why people seek God because they understand they are not doing what they're created to do .and are empty with out the life that was designed to be in them. .

And usually harming people as well as their self by poor decisions they are making.

That's why God gave his law of love to teach us how to Love each other, respect each other. To love and worship him .

Respect our parents.and spread love to others .

It was never done away with But Rome stopped All people from converting to it and the months of God and his sabbaths and feasts and enforced other practices. The called the Christiandom OR THEOLOGY TODAY. I HAVE THE ORIGINAL CANNONS THE FIRST ONE THEY BANNED THE SABBATH OF GOD SECOND THEY BANNED HIS PASSOVER FEAST OF CONVERSION THEY BAN HIS MONTHS .

THEY BANNED THE HIGH PRIEST ORDER AND TOOK OVER THE SYNAGOGUES .

WITH NO ACCESS TO GOD AND NO WAY TO CONVERT BY KEEPING HIS FEASTS THIS IS WHY GOD SENT HIS SON JESUS TO BE THE LIVING SACRIFICE THE LIVING HIGH PRIEST THE LIVING TABERNACLE THAT CIRCUMCISES US BY HIS SPIRIT AND WRITES HIS LAW INTO OUR HEARTS INSTEAD OF STONE FOR THIS NEW COVENANT. OF HIS FAITH WHICH IS HIS LAW.

IT'S NEW MARRIAGE COVENANT HAS A LAW LIKE YOU WOULD I WOULD HAVE AND WANT IN A MARRIAGE THAT WE DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO COMMIT ADULTERY ON US WE DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO LIE WE DON'T WANT ANYBODY TO STEAL OR KILL THAT WERE MARRIED TO. SO THESE ARE THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE MARRIAGE COVENANT S IN THE Law of Love and judgments of Jesus. THIS IS the faith ..

plus His months feasts and sabbaths that WERE BANNED AND haven't been taught since Constantine banned them in about 330- 380 a d . .. SO THEY HAVE OT BEEN KNOWN OR NOT TAUGHT TO THIS DAY. UNTIL RECENTLY PEOPLE ARE STARTING TO LEARN ABOUT THEM .

AS ISAIAH 6623 SAYS. HIS MONTHS AND SABBATHS OR NEW MOONS AND SABBATH WILL BE RESTORED WHEN JESUS COMES TO REIGN ON EARTH.

BUT MWhat's funny Is that MANY CLAIM THEY'RE NOT RELIGIOUS OR IN A RELIGION BUT actually ARE following Roman religion Roman solar calendar days AND THEIR gODS practices

They Enforced Easter by death. After they banned GODS holy Passover feast of CONVERSION TO God .

They THEN Enforced saturnalia which is now called Christmas and said it was about Jesus and his son called birth . To trick gentiles to convert and keep their practices.

THESE ARE NOT IN THE BIBLE. . BUT THEY ARE ALL JEWISH FEASTS OR THE FEAST OF GOD THAT ARE CALLED JUDAISM. BUT THEY ARE NOT TAUGHT TODAY IN TRUTH OR THT TRUE MONTHS.

BECAUSE ROME ENFORCED ALL THEIR LAWS AND CALENDAR ON ALL THE NATIONS BY DEATH. SO MOST THE WORLD Is keeping Roman law That was adopted as a religion that Banned and Mocks the true God of creation and his faith. . . Anybody that seeking God would come out of that very quickly.

But the story here is about a woman who was raised in this awful world as a child of the product of this world and the way it thinks that he can do it what it wants then matter who it hurts.. she was on drugs at 8 years old and on heroin at 10 or 11 years old and was trying to fit in with people that she only knew . She just wanted to be loved.and she gets that love in a way that most people can't understand until it happens to them

You ask Jesus into your heart. And what it says you can look it up. Speak the words of Romans 10:9 and do Acts 15. 19 - 21.

The assembly or church is the people.

People seeking the God of Israel that made them.

The difference between this movie and others is that the others have more filters, but the quality and the message of this movie is much better than the million dollar movies.

As a person that was also on drugs at a very young age and very close to doing what she did times and was very suicidal. Jesus came to me is literally after I asked him into my heart a few weeks before that.

I didn't really know what it meant but I was planning my death a few weeks later and just heartbroken in so much pain and he spoke to me.. His voice filled the room.. He sent a man and said he would ask me to marry him and to do it. So I did and he took care of me and helped me out of that situation. And I asked Jesus to teach me and he's taught me ever since. Giving me understanding of his words of his father's words.. And what the faith is and what I need to do

I love this movie so much. I would watch it 10 more times and I suggest everybody that they watch it too. I send it to a lot of people and I'm posting the link . If I can find it.. it today on Facebook for people to watch.

And this is probably why they don't use much prison dialect in soap operas simply because it is too boring. Not worth watching

If this had been a movie that was a made up story it would have been a weak movie very unbelievable. But because it REALLY HAPPENED I think it is an awesome movie it touched my heart. The chaplain who is Linda Strom, is still traveling the world with the story of Karla Faye Tucker. She has blessed many people and the life of Karla gives us all hope. Even though the movie has been dramatized you can still see the real story. I salute the people working with prisoners and their victims and other people effected by crime. The story of Karla shows that the work of all these volunteers and dedicated officers are not in vain. It also shows that there is Hope for everyone, no matter what you have done.

It does not take a genius to understand that it is due to churchgoers that this movie is rated more than one star. It is truly terrible in all aspects. Impossible not to laugh throughout it, especially at the execution scene. Praise the bored!
