Each time it comes on tv, I'm compelled to watch it all over again. I'm glad and very thankful to see images of our Warrior God in everyday films. I hate gratuitous violence, but I also, hate things that don't appear "real". Your commentary was beautiful. Makes me want to fall on my face before our Lord and worship Him. He fought for me!

Passion was awesome. It makes the story of the passion come alive. There's no comparison, and to me no need to compare. I would never compare the two movies, though. Passion was awesome.

I haven't seen it multiple times but now I realize that the beauty is there because it's so like the beauty of God. Wonderful post. Brilliant.

I wish I'd kept watching.<br/><br/>Thank you SO MUCH for that - the issue of God's violence in the OT has been bothering me for a while, and I can honestly say that this is the first time I've heard someone venturing an explanation that doesn't seem like a major cop-out, that made some sense, and that took God's <i>incredible</i> love into account. A BIG thank you. I stopped watching Man on Fire after the first time Creasy was violent… I wish I’d kept watching.
