The life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ along with rising minority influence and natural disasters will mark 33 A.D. in human history as the most influential and essential year. The people of 33 A.D. bring unbridled revolutions in culture and philosophy as well as offering an example…

child of God, saved through the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ. I lived in the Lewisville, TX area until 1994 when we moved to Georgia where I attended high school. I was saved and baptized at fourteen, but strayed from my faith until my early twenties when I had two children and married the love of my life.

In the New Testament, baptism is a symbolic ritual where one is submerged under water after receiving Christ as their savior. The water symbolically washes away their sins and gives them a new birth in Christ (Acts 22:16). Near the end of Part One, John fishes Mary 1’s dead body out of the sea and carries her to the stage as water continues to pour out of her body (76). In this moment John symbolizes Jesus, who tries to fish Mary 1’s lost soul out from the seas of sin. The continuous flow of…

The violence depicted in the film is very hard to describe. It is sickening and shocking to watch, especially when it is the portrayal of the crucification and suffering of Jesus Christ. It shows almost two hours of non-stop brutality, with almost relentless torture and bloodshed. The only person who would watch this film and not have an emotional response is someone who is living without any feelings. When it was screened in theatres, there was tears in the faces and in the eyes of everyone…
