finally got to watch passion yest.. sizzling hot-news item passion.. yea, that show about Jesus Christ, the show that everyone has been talking about, it being the controversial movie of the year, perhaps of the decade, or century even.. so hyped up... but when i went to see the show.. o well... someone said i shd bring tissue paper.. well, i did tear a bit in the show, but i wun say i cried buckets.

i was more intrigued by the language. n a few scenes that i couldnt recall reading from the Bible. yar.. perhaps i was comparing most of the time, trying to make heads n tails of what they were doing. i do like the flashbacks though. the time when Jesus was with His momie, that was like seeing Jesus as human, as u and me, as someone else's son. Jesus has all the while been God's Son to me, God in nature, Jesus = God. this show makes me see Jesus in the flesh, how He is just like u and me..

n the way they tortured him.. well, that was jus plain gross. sadists! absolute mean n lowly people. how could they even hav it in their hearts to do such mean things to another fellow human? no matter how much a person has inflicted hurt on another, he doesnt deserve to be punished or tortured to that degree. my fists jus clenched at every single blow. the nails that went into the hands.. feet was worse.. i could feel the bones breaking at every single blow... O God... why? why were those people so mean??

okies, shall not say more about the show. go watch it for urself. i sure dun regret watching it, esp not when i watched it with a coupla good frens. though i cant agree more with vvayz that this show could be better watched alone. mb then i wun b so conscious.. mb then i would indeed hav wailed n cried buckets.. but i guess, if that was the case, yea, i would rather watch with frens. let me do the crying when i'm alone with Him, not in some cinema with many unknown faces, no.. this is not a show staged for others to see, but one between me n Him..

as an ending note about the show. i really thank God for Mel Gibson for making this show, n putting in as much Bible perspective as possible. Now, millions in the world would have seen Jesus, and carry with them back a mental picture of what He has done on the cross.. all His suffering.. yea, can we ever outbeat Him in all that He has suffered willingly for us?..
