Listen to how Jim Caviezel lives out his faith in a hostile environment. How he deals with Hollywood. Taking the role of Jesus in Mel Gibson’s movie, The Passion of the Christ was costly for him in terms of the roles he was then offered by producers. In fact, they dried up. Mel Gibson told him in advance of Jim taking the role that this would be the result. It is costly to be an obedient servant of Christ but Jim would have it no other way. This is an inspirational video and is a challenge to all believers.

A MUST-SEE FILM BEING RELEASED JULY 4th
This Christian film, Sound of Freedom on “child trafficking” became the number-one film in America on its release day, July 4th. Its become a movement already blessed by God. Read this testimony of someone who went to view the film. The film is getting standing ovations in the theatres where it is being shown.
“My sister, my daughter, who is a marriage and family therapist, my 13 year old granddaughter, and I went to see it on July 4th. The theater was completely full. It was so powerful. After the commentary at the end that Jim Caviezel gave, 2 ladies stood up and asked anyone who wanted to stand up and pray an “Our Father” for all the children who are being sex trafficked. We prayed and it was so hard to hold back the tears. My daughter has had to do therapy with young kids who have had to live these horrible crimes. God save the innocent children under these evil people. Thank you Tim Ballard, Jim Caviezel, Mr Alejandro Monteverde, Mr Eduardo Verastegui and Angel Studios for bringing this out.“
Another testimony:
“Think about what it’s like to come home and look at your child’s empty bed…”. Sound of Freedom calls to the hearts of ALL of us. Young people, parents, believers, non-believers, all people of good will. It shows us a reality that does not happen only in Colombia but in all our cities and countries. Think of the agony of not knowing where your child is, in whose hands, in a fate worse than death because it is daily and continuous suffering. Hopefully, this testimony moves our hearts and inspires us to action. From Argentina, where we are informed it will be released in October, we are eagerly and gratefully waiting for it.”
“The movie was released in Canada on July 3. Went immediately and it might be odd to say but I actually left with an uplifted feeling… that this horrific crime is being brought out more into the light! This has been dear to my heart for years. I’ve been on many international mission trips… Guatemala, Peru, Mexico, Romania… saw so many vulnerable children and in one case blatantly child sex trafficking when a 12 year old was pimped out to approach our team selling herself! I’m so grateful there are people like Tim fighting this crime against God’s children!”
FILM – PAUL APOSTLE OF CHRIST
God does use the most unlikely people to bring His truths to the world. Just as he used Mel Gibson to produce and distribute The Passion of Christ. In this case it is Affirm Films, a division of Sony Pictures Worldwide Acquisitions.
AFFIRM Films brings to vivid life on screen the epic story of Paul, the man who went from persecutor of the church to its most powerful and important proponent. Paul suffers alone in a Roman prison, awaiting his execution under Emperor Nero. Mauritius, the ambitious prison prefect, can hardly see what threat this broken man poses. Once he was Saul of Tarsus, the high-ranking and brutal killer of Christians. Now his faith rattles Rome. At great risk, Luke the Physician visits the aged Paul to comfort and tend to him—and to question, to transcribe and to smuggle out Paul’s letters to the growing community of believers. Amid Nero’s inhuman persecution, these men and women will spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ and change the world. Starring Jim Caviezel (“Passion of the Christ”), James Faulkner (“Game of Thrones”), Olivier Martinez (“SWAT”), Joanne Whalley (“A.D. The Bible Continues”) and John Lynch (“The Secret Garden”).
It is be released in the USA in time for Easter 2018. Watch out for it.
Up front, in the book of Romans, Paul brings to us important truths for these “last days” “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were they thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the incorruptible God into an image made like corruptible man… Therefore God also gave them up to uncleanness, in the lusts of their hearts, to dishonour their bodies among themselves, who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshipped and served the creature rather than the creator… For this reason God gave them up to their vile passions. For even their women exchanged the natural use for what is against nature. Likewise also the men…” Romans 1: 10-27
