You must know the truth, and the truth will set you free

This is not a film that whitewashes criminal behavior. In fact, the crime plot shown in the film is not only very restrained, but also just right to make the audience hate crime.

The content shown in this film is not available in the current context, and even the current context is unwilling to tolerate this part of the content.

Including in the video comment area, some people's comments are really nauseating. I also know that the comments I will write will also give these people a reason to be bored. After watching this film, I realized that it was the best director at the Academy Awards. I really deserve it. I am so happy for the director!

This film reveals at least three questions: first, do death row prisoners have the right to receive the gospel; second, are the death row prisoners worthy of respect during the last few days of their lives; third, if the object of death confession is only for people, does it make sense?

First, the current context is free of discussion, and it is easy to be blocked if you talk about it. Therefore, for those who like this movie but don’t understand the gospel content, or even spit it out, I have a pity for them. Those people missed something. ,Do not know at all.

Second, every day of life needs to be spent with dignity and respect. Of course, dignity is given to myself, but respect is given by others.

For example, this respectable nun took out the precious few days of her life to accompany a condemned prisoner through the last few days. This is the respect she gives to all human members. The reason: it is for the essence of life and for the God’s faith has nothing to do with man’s good or evil deeds.

If you pay too much attention to a person's evil deeds and only have an unforgettable hatred for criminals, then you will not really understand this love for human members, which comes from Jesus Christ on the cross. No matter how you think this movie is good-looking, but you don't know the love, you can't understand the true meaning of this love.

Third, at the last minute of the death row, he finally confessed to the family of the victim, but the film also shows that he had already confessed to God the day before. Here is another detail that is easy to overlook, but if you don't understand this detail, you won't understand the whole movie.

If a person (whether a prisoner or not) disappears forever with the death of the body, then any behavior (including confession) before his death is really not important, because it is meaningless! So this is a film that promotes heaven and eternal life, not a moral preaching. Therefore, except for Christians, everyone basically cannot understand the core content of the whole film.

John 8:32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.

    I just want to say that it is wrong to kill, whether it is me, you, your government.
