No matter how we cut it, it's the same Passion of Christ.
I tried to see it tonight but the theater was sold out for all showings. My wife and I will go see it on Monday during work hours.

I am probably an exception to most Christians, in that I do not want to see this film. Every time I see an excerpt, it makes me cringe. I am already a believer, plus one that believes and reads scripture, so its not like I would miss anything. I'm just glad that He paid this price so that I would not have to. That is the whole point anyway.....

My husband and i went and saw the passion this afternoon. Iam still in awe,I disagree with the article,go see it or not but do think about it. it was the most powerful movie i have ever seen and it really gave me pause. Ive been thinking about my salvation and what our Lord Jesus suffered for all of us to be free. the movie wasn't going to convert me to a catholic,it reinforced my reasons for accepting Christ as my Saviour.

GO AND BE ABUNDANTLY BLESSED.
Clearly righteousness, like beauty, can be overmuch in the eye of the beholder.
There is plenty of THE BIBLICAL JESUS and the BIBLICAL EVENTS in the movie to be richly and deeply spiritually blessed.
I think it has to do with the attitude of one's heart.
And the attitude of the heart of the author of this post seems to me to be quite askew from the heart of Jesus.
But he can cite lines of chapter and verse and well justified hostility . . . .
Just as the pharisees could in their calling for Christ's crucifixion.
They that SEEK GOD SHALL FIND HIM according to God's own Word.
Those who SEEK TO THROW ROCKS, instead, may end up being labeled stone-headed and stoney-hearted.
My God is bigger than that.
