The Passion....
 

Finally watched this movie last night.

I've kind of avoided it for several years.
Probably because a lot of biblical movies have underlying doctrine that i feel contradicts the bible or I question peoples motives. Maybe I'm just not a Mel Gibson fan....


But I'd been watching a music video that had many scenes from this movie and thought I should finally watch it.

I didn't really hone in on anythinig doctrianally(for sure).....but if this is movie is even a glimpse into the level of Jesus suffering.....


I've been beside myself since last night.....

I am very grateful for the price He paid...
I think of the song that some of the words are, "I owed a debt I could not pay..." and how true...
Thanks to Jesus for paying that debt for us...Thank Him for His mercy and GRACE...

This movie was a masterpiece in every way I can think of.

I do not think anyone has even come close to the portrayal of the crucification as Mel Gibson did in the Passion.

Keith and I viewed it in the theater and people were visibly moved, I could hear sobs and sniffing back tears though out the building.

It made me think, am I doing enough for Christ? and I also had to repent because at times I am grateful for what Jesus did for me.


Watching the Passion, really effected me in a very profound and deep way-I will never forget it.

Jeanie, I am sure there are many times we humans are unthankful but it is wonderful and assuring to know that He abideth faithful...

I was moved by the movie. Christ loves us more than we can comprehend.

Hate to change the topic, but did you see the movie Fireproof yet?

Re: The Passion....
 

I did. It is awesome.

The beatings, and mocking. They showed a view of Jesus coming into town with plam branches waving and days later beaten beyond recognition. Mocking, spitting. As he went to the cross. I never saw it like that before the way he came to passover and days later when he went to the cross.....i don't know why.


I wished I watched the movie when it came out....for some reason though something inside told me not to. It really made feel real pathetic at the stupid little stuff in this life I let get me worked up, or down on myself. I can be pretty petty.

Praise your Name Jesus.

Well Shawn, it sounds like you are seeing things in a proper perspective concerning what is really important in life-

Thank you for reminding us of this message- sometimes it just good to remember what God did for us all.
