The Crucifixion of Jesus Was R-Rated

The Crucifixion of Jesus Was R-Rated

The Christian faith is built on the undeniable, unshakeable truth that Jesus was raised from
the dead. It is also founded on the historical fact that the Savior suffered
unimaginable pain when Roman soldiers nailed Him to a cross.

I hope you will ponder that pain as you celebrate the death and resurrection of Christ this
weekend.

When the movie The Passion of the Christ was released 12 years ago, Hollywood insiders mocked
it because it offered a realistic—and extremely bloody—depiction of Jesus'
torture and death. Regardless of what you think of controversial director Mel
Gibson, he did a masterful job of capturing the brutality of a first-century
Roman execution.

screens. It was very dynamic and very modern.

powerful ingredients to its success:

 I hear from thousands of Christians each week, and sometimes that many
in a day. I also hear from those from other faiths or no faith at all. They are
diverse—from almost every denomination and nation. I don't base the following
on scientific polling, but it is a good sampling and may be even more accurate
than the polls have been recently.

Most seem to think that Trump is either a messenger from the Messiah or
from the antichrist, and few are in between. Some Christians are shocked that
other Christians would vote for Trump, yet polls indicate that more than half
of evangelical Christians are voting for him. Why?

This is a valid question that reveals a lot about the state of the
nation and also the church. The following seem to be the main reasons
Christians have given for supporting Donald Trump rather than the other more
vocal or devoted believers.

• FACTOR  #1: Many no longer trust politicians who claim to
  be Christians or conservatives. These seem to inevitably change when they
  get to Washington and fail to keep their promises.
