It is interesting in reading the responses to this the number of "Christians" responding that they don't need to see the film to know that Christ died for them. It might be instructive for all to know the depth of His love for us to watch what will truly be the most graphic portrayal of how he "suffered, was crucified, and was buried". I grew up knowing He died, but it was only after having seen first hand the horrors of death in warfare that I had any inkling of how the "man" Christ must have suffered in His torture and death.

"For God so loved the world ..."

If the billing of the film is anywhere near as it is in reality I believe it will humble this frail Christian. And just perhaps my faith will be strengthened for it.

I don't understand how so many who have not seen the film can be so critical of it.

Knock yourself out. I am a Christian too and I am not going to see it.

What is this thing with putting the word Christians in quotation marks? Are you saying that someone who won't go see a movie, a MOVIE mind you, is not a good Christian? That's absurd.
