The Passion of the Christ

THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST covers the time period from the Garden of Gethsemane to the Resurrection.

​This film will transform and convict those within the Body of Christ. In fact, there are signs of revival and a deepening of faith whenever anyone sees THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST.

When the screening of The Passion ended, people in the preview audience started crying out: “Thank you, Jesus!”, “I love the cross!”, “I'm sorry Jesus!” Worship continued for about two hours after the movie was over.terms the spiritual warfare raging around Jesus Christ during His Passion in a concrete way.

This film will transform and convict those within the Body of Christ. In fact, there are signs of revival and a deepening of faith whenever anyone sees THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST. Paul Harvey said in his commentary on the movie: “I really did not know what to expect. I was thrilled to have been invited to a private viewing of Mel Gibson's film ‘The Passion’…This was not simply a movie; it was an encounter, unlike anything I have ever experienced.

“In addition to being a masterpiece of filmmaking and an artistic triumph, ‘The Passion’ evoked more deep reflection, sorrow and emotional reaction within me than anything since my wedding, my ordination or the birth of my children. Frankly, I will never be the same. When the film concluded, this invitation-only gathering of ‘movers and shakers’ in Washington, D.C. was shaking indeed, but this time from sobbing. I am not sure there was a dry eye in the place. The crowd that had been glad-handing before the film was now eerily silent. No one could speak because words were woefully inadequate. We had experienced a kind of art that is a rarity in life, the kind that makes heaven touch earth.”

“A law professor whom I admire sat in front of me. He raised his hand and said, ‘After watching this film, I do not understand how anyone can insinuate that it even remotely presents that the Jews killed Jesus. It doesn't.’ He continued, ‘It made me realize that my sins killed Jesus.’ I agree. There is not a scintilla of anti-Semitism to be found anywhere in this powerful film. If there were, I would be among the first to decry it. It faithfully tells the Gospel story in a dramatically be autiful, sensitive, and profoundly engaging way.

“Those who are alleging otherwise have either not seen the film or have another agenda behind their protestations. This is not a ‘Christian’ film, in the sense that it will appeal only to those who identify themselves as followers of Jesus Christ. It is a deeply human, beautiful story that will deeply touch all men and women. It is a profound work of art.”

Even so, moviegoers will have to bring some knowledge of the Gospel to comprehend the movie. The film was shot in Aramaic and Latin. Regardless of the subtitles and the languages, Mel shot the movie almost as a silent movie, using images to relate the greatest story ever told.

THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST is an artistic masterpiece. The pacing and style have a foreign feel, and the violence is intense. Those who watch it will understand, perhaps for the first time, the price that Jesus paid to forgive us our sins. This is real grace, not cheap grace.

THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST is a must-see movie, beautifully directed, powerfully acted, with terrific sound.

What a joy it is to know that His shed blood has redeemed us!

"And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 
Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 
teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.
.”
 Matthew 28: 18-20
