This question does not apply only to the "New Testament." There is no eternal spiritual or moral truth that was not already included by G-d within the Written Torah, i.e. the 24 Books of the Hebrew Scriptures:.html]
Re. the 5 Books of Moses, see https://asknoah.org/written_torah
and re. the Oral Torah, see see https://asknoah.org/oral_torah
which together include G-d's communication of the 613 Jewish Commandments, the 7 Noahide Commandments, the basic principles of Torah faith, and the promise of the coming of the true Messiah from the House of David, may this happen speedily in our days. Other man-made systems arose which picked and chose which parts of the Written and Oral Torah they desired to use, which parts they desired to alter, which parts they desired to mistranslate, and which parts they desired to reject or declare null and void, G-d forbid. Thus any person who has established a faithful relationship to the Torah and the One True G-d, the Giver of the Torah, does a disservice to his spiritual standing if he delves into sources which deny any of those basic principles. (This is especially the case for Jews and Chasidei Umos Ha'Olom).
Dramatizations by actors present the additional issue of playing more to the emotions than to the intellect, and some people are very susceptible to this mode of influence. In a dramatization, the "red flag" issues are usually glossed over, or omitted altogether.
