He is risen indeed!

I was absolutely delighted when Mel Gibson included the resurrection scene at the end of his movie (it had been rumored he would not)!

I sat through my annual viewing of this film on Friday.

As usual, it was a very difficult watch.

The Resurrection is in planning stages. Gibson mentioned they might use some of the same cast from the Passion.

There are some interesting videos on YouTube has how it was made.

Happy Easter.

“Surprisingly, there have been no attempts by Mr Gibson or anyone else to replicate the success of this film,”

Not true.
The Resurrection of the Christ is supposed to be released next year.

It is going to be a great one.

The dialog in the movie is in Aramaic and Latin, but curiously, the Latin used is Liturgical or Ecclesiastical Latin, which developed about eight centuries after the event.

The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers so they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For we do not proclaim ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, and ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake. For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made His light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.
II Cor. 4:4-6

Indeed, although Mel is Catholic, his Passion became a hit thanks to evangelical Protestants—those who believe the Bible is the literal truth and not a “useful narrative”... Instead of Jesus the wimp, Mel gives us Jesus the Redeemer. He died for our sins... not just an unfortunate misunderstanding cruelly cutting short a promising career in gentle teaching. The followers of Wimp Jesus seem to believe He died to license our sins—Jesus loves us for who we are so whatever’s your bag is cool with Him...
