I guess we will just have to agree to disagree for I see no way for an unregenerate man to keep the 2nd commandment, millions will flock to this movie to to see a PICTURE (image or likeness) of Jesus, and to see their Hollywood idol, Mel Gibson, and even if I grant you the use of the term of "reverence," as a GOOD INTENT, it is violating the second commandment--see below!! Thus, my rule of life will continue to be the Scripture and not Hollywood's blasphemy:<br><br><blockquote>Exodus 20:4-5 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;<br><br>Deuteronomy 5:-9 Thou shalt not make thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the waters beneath the earth: Thou shalt not bow down thyself unto them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me,</blockquote> The Larger Catechism states:<br><br><blockquote>The sins forbidden in the second commandment are, [color:red]all devising, counseling, commanding, using, and <span style="background-color:yellow;">anywise approving</span>,</font color=red> any religious worship not instituted by God himself; tolerating a false religion; [color:red]the making any representation of God, of all or of any of the three persons, <span style="background-color:yellow;">either inwardly in our mind, or outwardly in any kind of image or likeness of any creature whatsoever</span></font color=red>; all worshiping of it, or God in it or by it; the making of any representation of feigned deities, and all worship of them, or service belonging to them; all superstitious devices, corrupting the worship of God, adding to it, or taking from it, whether invented and taken up of ourselves, or received by tradition from others, though [color:red]under the title of antiquity, custom, devotion, <span style="background-color:yellow;">good intent, or any other pretense whatsoever</span></font color=red>; simony; sacrilege; all neglect, contempt, hindering, and opposing the worship and ordinances which God hath appointed.</blockquote>
