The Passion of Christ is his sacrifice. From the agony in the garden, through his death on the cross. It's a very sad time for him, but he knows that God's will must be done, not his. It's an extremely sad time for us, because we know that all his suffering was for US. For you, for me, and for the next guy. In the end, it's also a time of hope. Knowing that "It is finished" but if you think about it, it's also just the beginning.
God bless,
=)

The Passion was one of the first forms of traveling theatre. It was a Church sanctioned play dealing with the death of the Christ. It was used in the early days of the Catholic church as a means to convert and control the Pagan masses. They were very drab plays as humor was frowned upon.

The fulfillment of prophecy and the gospel of Jesus Christ. The passion is foretold in Isaiah chapter 53. It is summarized in ! Corinthians 15:1-8, and it is glorified in Romans chapter 8.

I recently watched the movie for the first time and was so moved. To me the passion is the passionate love God has for us to give his son so that we may be saved. The passion that Jesus had for his fathers will and teachings was awe inspiring and makes me want to be a better person and get closer to God. My 7 yr old son watched it also and was moved beyond beleif. He cried for an hour after the movie and now everynight when he prays he thanks God for Jesus and apologizes to Jesus that he had to go thru that to save us.

Are you a good person? What a question, most of us believe that we are good people because we can look around and find someone that is far worse than we are. We can always point to the things that we think make us a good person.
But how good are we really? Dare we take this test and look at ourselves and see if we really are good? Hmmm.
If you are willing try this and see just how good a person you are.
The Good Person Test.
How will you do? Pass or fail?
Have you ever told a lie?
Doesn't matter how big or small, just a lie.
What does that make you? Before answering think about this, if I told you a lie what would you call me? A liar?
Have you ever stolen anything? Cost doesn't matter, a piece of gum, failed to give back an ink pen that you borrowed, anything.
What does that make you?
Jesus said, "You know the saying of old, you shall not commit adultery but I say that if look at someone to lust after them you have committed adultery in your heart.
Have you ever lusted?
Jesus said that hate is equal to murder.
Have you ever hated anyone?
See one day we all are going to stand before a Holy God on Judgment Day and he is going to judge us based on His Holy Law, the Ten Commandments. These are just 4 of them and how did you do? Guilty? I have broken all of these and more, what about you? How well will you do on Judgment Day?
If we break just one point of God's Law we are guilty of breaking all the law and Gods Wrath abides upon us all. Based on God's Law we are all guilty and all are deserving of punishment. But there is an out for us.
Jesus paid the price for each one of us, took on himself God's Wrath so we wouldn't have to face it on our own. Jesus was beaten, battered, bleed and died so we wouldn't have to face God's Wrath. He rose again so that we would life in his presence. Our crimes, His payment.
The real question is where will you stand on Judgment Day. Pay yourself or have it paid for you. Think about it.

The passion of Christ is to reconcile His lost sheep unto Him. Out of love He sacrificed Himself so that we might believe and live.

Jesus' passion was to pour his life out (literally) for everyone around him while he lived and finish his Father's will by dying a blameless death so that we may become reconciled to God while we live.
