The Passion of Christ

It has become a familiar expression in recent days. People from different backgrounds and persuasions have been to see the film, even those who perhaps would never go to churchwhich is interesting. If you wanted to find out more about Jesus Christ and what Christianity is all about, the cinema would not usually rate as your primary source location. I wonder if you have ever dropped into your local church for an hour or so to find out more. It would be worth it, and you will find that there is no entry fee! Churches, of course, come in all shapes and sizes, and what they stand for and teach can be as varied as the different building designs and shapes. The film, the Passion of Christ, may have raised questions in your mind and you would like to know more. So if you are genuinely interested in discovering more about that unique Man - Jesus Christ, Son of God - begin by taking a look at the Bible, it contains the full story, which the film could never provide. Take a look at the gospels, perhaps the book of Mark or John. You will find them towards the beginning of the New Testament (Check the index in the front of any Bible or New Testament). They will tell you about the Man from eternity, who came into time for you. Yes, you as an individual. Why? Because He loves you! Pretty amazing, and that is just the start! Can I just encourage you? Seen the film? Now read the book!
