Default Re: OT: The Passion of the Christ movie

If God wants to destroy us, that's his perogative. He made us after all. And it won't be because he's evil. It will be because he's righteous, we are most definitely not.

Just look at the war in Iraq, Terrorism, the prisoner abuses, all the name-calling and backbiting in the media. We see it now, but it's been going on for a long time. We humans are not nice people. We care too much about ourselves and too little about others.

I think that's the whole point of the Jesus story a la this movie. While we deserve destruction by horrible fire, God still loves us so much that he'll become mortal and get his guts ripped out in agony, suffering the punishment that we deserve justly.

It was our trecherous nature that drove the whip to a truly innocent man. The only one ever born into this world.

Death is the only way out of our predicament. You can either die yourself, or accept the death of Jesus and let him give you a new life. Both choices Last a very long time. And both are permanent.
