God's wrath was poured out upon Him, his own Son for our sins, that's how much God hates sin.

Amen. And how much Christ loves those whom the Father has given Him.

While there was a lot to dislike in "The Passion," Gibson did a great job of showing the torment Christ suffered. But many people think that torment was the wrath of human beings against Jesus, when in truth, Christ suffered the wrath of God for our sakes.

From that perspective, the scenes of Christ's suffering were riveting.
