The Passion of Christ (Portuguese)

The Passion of Christ

"For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God." (1 Corinthians 1:18)

The suffering of Christ is a most solemn subject. People made the Passion of Christ the subject of a film. But the believer understands the importance of this scene and of what has been accomplished at the cross of Christ, so they consider this subject with the greatest respect and fear of God. Why are the sufferings and death of Jesus provoking so much debate?

The sufferings and death of Christ challenge everyone. If anyone prefers to flee this question, it is because it concerns our sins whether they want to recognize it or not.
