The Official Home of Hindi Movie Torrent Downloads. One friend of mine at the screening expressed his concern that this film in portraying Jesus' death at the hands of the Jewish establishment might. The life and toils of Jesus Christ, depicted as written in the gospel of John. I also realized how often Jesus says, `I am who I am' (three times) and finally, `Before Abraham was, I am.' Jesus applies to Himself the phrase used by Yahweh in the Old Testament as His name.The story of Jesus' life as told by the apostle John, narrated by Christopher Plummer. Again, John does not tell us what became of John the Baptist (he was beheaded by Herod) or Judas the traitor (he hanged himself). For instance, John does not describe the institution of the Eucharist at the Last Supper, yet abounds in references to bread and wine. It struck me that the author of the fourth gospel assumes we are already conversant with all this material. I realized, for the first time, why John recounts events absent from Matthew, Mark and Luke, while ignoring those familiar to us from their accounts.

I found `The Gospel of John' highly instructive, not just for what it says, but what is does not say. As if in counterpoint to Pilate's cynical barb, `What is truth?' we have Jesus' ringing declaration, `I am the Truth!' (This is often obscured by older translations, such as `Amen, amen, I say to you'.) But it certainly hammers home the theme of John's gospel. I lost track of how often Jesus said, `I am telling you the truth.' Some might find this annoyingly repetitive. On the other hand, and this is a good thing, using the integral text of John's gospel obliges us truly to listen - to hear the Word. This gives the audience a much-needed visual breather. To his credit, the director tries to compensate by cutting away to a montage of black-and-white flashback images suggested by Jesus' words.

I must confess, I kept nodding off during this segment of the film. This runs the risk of being a deadly bore in cinematic terms. It means that the actor playing Jesus must deliver lengthy speeches, especially Jesus' farewell after the Last Supper. Was it wise or foolish to adopt this approach? That depends on your point of view. One of my friends used the term `verbose'. The result is an understandably wordy script. The film combines dialogue with narration by veteran actor Christopher Plummer. It employs every single word of the text, as rendered by the Good News Bible translation. `The Gospel of John' purports to be a faithful retelling of the fourth gospel. John is startlingly different in its details, style and tone - so much so, that this gospel almost didn't make it into the accepted canon of New Testament books. Their `eyewitness accounts' are remarkably alike. Matthew, Mark and Luke are referred to as the `synoptic' gospels. There are four gospels in the New Testament. 'I've been a Christian for 25 years, but I never knew who Jesus truly was until I saw Matthew. This unique word-for-word presentation in the NIV brings to the screen a divine yet warmly human Jesus. This deeply moving presentation of the most beloved of stories stars luminary Richard Kiley as Matthew and the passionate Bruce Marchiano as Jesus. Walk with Jesus through Galilee as He calls His disciples, performs the first miracles, and begins teaching His world-changing message of love and redemption.
