The Passion of the Christ

I finally had the liberty of watching the movie, 'The Passion of the Christ' last weekend as Ken wanted to find someone to join him. And so, there we were, 2 guys on a date (hahaha, we're still straight guys ya~) at 1-Utama.


And it was a good movie that challenged me on my walk with God. Just before the movie:
Ken : I think we must go buy tissuelah, later cry man..
me : Tissue ar? Haihh~ I won't cry man..
Ken : Nevermind, I've got my pillow to hug if I cry..

Unexpectedly, the scene where Jesus was betrayed, the floodgates broke open. There was the realness in which the Bible Scriptures jumped up and became alive. The Pharisees looked condesending and degrading. Judas, the ever timid and yet there was the element of greed in him. And Jesus, willing to take up His cross even though He knew the suffering He was going to suffer.

The only problem was that Caviezel's injuries looked plastered on instead of being real. I was personally distracted by this, though, up to now, this is the best and most moving film on Christ ever made.

It seems that watching the movie only confirmed even more of what God's trying to move in my heart. Am I willing to take up and bear my cross just as Christ did it? Are you willing to do so as well?

Help me keep this passion~

God Bless~
p/s: I always wondered why it's called 'The Passion of the Christ' instead of 'The Passion of Christ'. Anybody for their 2 cents worth? hehe.
