God's way

A good gospel story does not need to be in a modern context. This film illustrates this truth. In fact, people have not changed much in their attitudes to truth in the past and present.

The dialogue in the whole film is great, the lines are elegant and not boring, and they are also powerful and not artificial. It simply explains what the Christians are doing. As for the characters, both the church and the Roman soldiers wanted to solve problems through their own wisdom, while Christ’s method was love. A movie clarified the way Christians face the world, because only goodness can overcome evil. It is worth reflecting on every Christian. Many times we seem to be in the name of God, how many of us are still solving problems in our way? Knowing Christ is the key!

Not much to say, the movie is great, I recommend all Christians to watch it!

Paul, Apostle of Christ quotes

  • Mauritius Gallas: If it were the only truth everyone would believe it.

    Luke: Not so. Christ, who is truth, rose from the dead, many do not believe.

    Mauritius Gallas: Lies, fabrications...

    Paul: If Christ had not risen from the dead, then our preaching is useless, and so is our faith.

    Mauritius Gallas: Oh, you have no doubts at all?

    Paul: Men do not die for things they doubt.

  • Paul: Imagine yourself looking out at the vast sea before you. You reach down and put a hand into the water and you scoop it up towards you. Immediately the water starts leaking through your fingers until the hand is empty. That water is a man's life. From birth to death it is always slipping through our hands until it is gone, along with all that you hold dear in this world. And yet the Kingdom I speak of - that I live for - is like the rest of the water out in the sea. Man lives for that cup of water that slips through his fingers. Those that follow Jesus Christ live for that endless expanse of sea.

    Mauritius Gallas: What if, after all this, I still do not believe in your Christ?

    Paul: I wasn't trying to convince you.

    [laughs]

    Paul: Listen to me. There is only a moment. It is not me. It is Christ himself that looks upon you and shatters your defenses and in that moment you will understand that you are completely known by God... and you are completely loved. I will pray that moment comes for you.
