Mel Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ” ~ An International Hoax

Did Gibson really mean to say the last twelve hours on Earth, or the last twelve hours before the crucifixion?

Another "Passion" thread :o)

From another thread:

Bottom Line: 'The Passion' = 'The stations of the Crucifix.'

Reality,.....Jesus suffered for 'sins' because of/for completed salvation once (1 time ended!)

(Salvational-sin-suffering-was-ON-THE-CROSS)

Christian focus is in it's completion/ending/finished....Our sins have been PAID IN FULL. (The SIN-PENALITY is PAID in FULL)

This point is in Jesus' DEATH and FINISHED BLOOD SHEDING!

The Cross suffering/death of Jesus is OVER.

He is NOT suffering for our sins ANYMORE!

'The Passion' = 'The stations of the Crucifix'.

:-(

Martin Luther is Rolling Over!

Indeed. Thanks for the ping!

One has to wonder if the producers of “The Passion” aren’t the real Christ-haters, who derived pleasure from reenacting the Crucifixion with meticulous attention to the details of Jesus’ torture.

LOL ping.

This is the most amazing example of the grasping at straws panic I have seen yet.
It's just flat out panic!

You can always trust Barb Aho to dig up the most pessimistic view, and I'm not so sure that Gibson was really attempting to attack the bodily resurrection.

Who the heck is this Barb character?

[editor-surveyor]

It's just flat out panic!

It's Barb's style; she is a true pessimist.

[editor-surveyor]

Who the heck is this Barb character?

She is an excellent researcher, who sometimes gets too bound up in the minutia of the facts that she unearths.

Would a Christian film director cast an unrepentant porn star in a movie about Jesus Christ?

The same question could be asked of Christ himself--"Would the true messiah consort with prostitutes and tax collectors?" How exactly does this bozo know the actress in question is "unrepentant"? Is he fit to judge her soul?

You have *got* to be kidding me. This is simply pathetic. Satan will expend every bullet trying to destroy this movie. But he will fail.

[editor-surveyor]

"Martin Luther is Rolling Over!"

Yes, I saw your post on Xzins' thread :o)

[ahadams2]

I gotta say this is the biggest load of, well, 'sour grapes' I've seen in a long time. It's based on misinterpretations and innuendos that would make Foxman and the ADL crowd blush - and given their $$$$ orientation that's really saying something!

I scanned the site, and I wish the link worked for the CRI bit. I like CRI, and it would be a good gage to where she is.
Although the above piece says enough, I think.

I am weary of the obsessive types like this. They are almost occultists in the belief system themselves.

" Satan will expend every bullet trying to destroy this movie. But he will fail"


Bingo. We need to keep this in mind during all of this.
I hate divider-Christians like this. They are definitely following the wrong path.

A review by Jody Dean, a Texas broadcaster, appears on the Jeff Rense website and was circulated by Jim Bramlett on Jan. 28, 2004. According to Ms. Dean, “The screening was shown on the first night of ‘Elevate!’, a weekend-long seminar for young people at Prestonwood Baptist Church in Plano [Texas]”– a mega-church of 22,000 where two members paid $42,000 for 6,000 tickets to see “The Passion”. In her review, Ms. Dean made a telltale observation:

ahem.

Jody Dean is a MAN!!

If you must verify our reporting, we recommend that only mature women view Bellucci’s Italian website.

That's grasping at straws.

Go ahead -- take a look at the website. It's quite tame. In fact, the SI Swimsuit Edition is worse. A little revealing, yes. Pornography? Not at all.

"Go ahead -- take a look at the website."

Thanks! (but would you mind explaining it to my wife...) :o)

[editor-surveyor]

"she" does look a bit butchie in that pic :o)
