Summary: Jesus Christ Never Existed.
Review: 'Jesus' made in 1979 is a famous film some people have seen or at least heard about. Most people fail to realize all of that doesn't matter because Jesus Christ never existed!! Jesus Christ is a mythological figure the church has exploited for hundreds of years and now the film industry has for almost a hundred years. There is absolutely no archeological or historical evidence that Jesus Christ existed. Even if he did exist, it would be highly unlikely he would have received that kind of punishment.
It is a shame that con artists like these filmmakers are using this mythological figure to make millions of dollars. People have to start swaying away from the manipulations of the church and the filmmaking industry and start looking at the hard facts. Jesus Christ and his crucifixion never happened.

Summary: YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME
Review: Filmed entirely on location in Israel with a largely Jewish cast, the film achieves authenticity that will be difficult for future filmmakers to duplicate. 25 years from now "Jesus" will still be a standard by which other films about the carpenter turned rabbi must be judged.
While films like "The Passion of the Christ" present more emotion and Hollywood glitz, "Jesus" is painstaking in its accuracy. The complete life story is presented based on the biography compiled 2,000 years ago by a doctor named Luke. The film is a plain and simple docudrama that many families make a tradition of viewing every Christmas and Easter. The fact that the film is available in the local language of over 90% of the earth's population says a lot about the film's lasting appeal and prominent place in cinematic history.

Summary: Jesus Christ Exists
Review: Jesus is our Lord and Savior. Anyone who wants to review this movie by stating that Jesus doesn't exist is simply an instigator...if the Lord didn't exist then why would people feel so strongly about him one way or the other? I won't give this subject so much as another thought, as it is a moot point! As far as the comment about the makers of this film just trying to get rich, consider this: If you had to choose who to give your money to, would you choose a bunch of Hollywood folks who use the money simply for their own benefit, or a group of Christian film makers? Before you answer, think about this, who do you think supports more non-profit charities throughout the world...Christians do...if for no other reason than that the Living God has told us to. As altruistic as the Hollywood types may seem to be, it's just a fact that they are in it for themselves, for the here and now, while we Christians are busy storing up our rewards in heaven!

Support Christian film making, there are way too many violent, sexually explicit and morally devoid films out there already...we need more of the good stuff!

Summary: This is THE Jesus film
Review: This is an evangilistic movie shown around the world (the DVD has a choice of about 8 languages) of the highlights of the ministry of Jesus, according to the gospel of Luke. It is a very well produced and acted documentary, bringing dramatic visual imagery to biblical scripture. Intended to introduce people of all nations to Jesus, is should also appeal to those Christians who appreciate adding another dimension to their biblical experience. This is a 2 DVD set, with the second DVD geared for children.

Summary: The Gospel of Luke brought to life!
Review: This is the 2-disc 25th anniversary edition which includes both "Jesus," the 1979 film starring Brian Deacon, and "The Story of Jesus for Children," which uses scenes from "Jesus" woven together with newly filmed scenes with child actors portraying children living in Jerusalem circa 30 A.D. "Jesus" has been translated into more than 800 languages, shown in 236 countries and viewed by more than 5 billion people. Based on the Gospel According to Luke, this film presents an unbiased portrayal of the life of Christ. Prior to filming, the filmmakers and those backing the making of this film undertook five years of extensive research to present the most accurate movie possible not only biblically, but also historically and archaeologically, right down to the pottery and the architecture of the homes. This is very well-made film, and the actors give some excellent performances. "Jesus" makes a great complement for Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ," as one film is about the suffering of Jesus and His death on the cross for the remission of our sins, and the other is about His life, ministry & teachings. "The Story of Jesus for Children" follows the story of the Christ through the eyes of children living during the time of Jesus' ministry. One of the kids is the son of a Pharisee who thinks Jesus is a charlatan and instructs his child to stay away from his friends who do believe in Jesus. This production is a great tool for parents who want to show their children who Jesus is. "The Jesus Film" is a great DVD set, and a must-have for your DVD library whether you do believe in Jesus or not. If I could give this more than 5 stars, I definitely would.

Summary: Falsehood or just plain ignorance?
Review: To claim that Jesus Christ did not even exist is mere ignorance. Such preposterous claims belie a desire for some illusion of moral or intellectual superiority. The argument is nothing but a straw man easily knocked down. There is plenty of historical and archaeological evidence to support the FACT that Jesus Christ did in fact exist. The Jesus movie is a good introduction to his life and teachings but by no means comprehensive (for that you need the Bible).

If you're sincere in your search for the Truth, I highly recommend reading Josh McDowell's book, More Than a Carpenter, as an easy first read. Available at Amazon.com, of course.

It's reasonable to question Jesus' deity if you've only heard the name and never seriously investigated His life. Those who have, including the hard-nosed skeptics who set out to debunk this thing called Christianity, often become Christians themselves. Those who don't generally do so out of mere pride -- an unwillingness to sacrifice their old, comfortable beliefs that allow them to live an ungodly lifestyle. But you reject Jesus at your own peril. It's the very height of folly.

As for my opinion of the Jesus the movie? Why not judge for yourself! You can watch the entire movie streamed online at jesusfilm.org in any of 62 languages (of the 858 it's been translated into)! Then you can decide whether or not to purchase the DVD.

I do recommend this film. I also recommend, highly, 2003's The Gospel of John. It is extremely faithful to the New Testament book of John and really brings life and a better understanding to the life, times, and teachings of Jesus Christ, God in the flesh.

I wish you well and pray that God may draw you to Him (that you may be receptive to His call). Perhaps I'll see you in heaven someday. If you have honest seeking questions, you're welcome to e-mail me at robvh at wellness5.com.
