Actors Who Have Portrayed Jesus Christ Since 2001 - Jim Caviezel - Jonathan Roumie - Diego Morgado - Cliff Curtis - Jaakko Ohtonen

 


Looking back since the year 2001, we reflect on the actors and their films or series, who have had the courage to play our, Lord Jesus Christ.  Who is your favorite? 


First, let's go back to 2004 with the film, "The Passion of Christ," starring Jim Caviezel who was relatively unknown then. Here is a wikipedia link. 





Now, there is controversy, as actor, Jaakko Ohtonen has been cast to replace Jim Caviezel in the forthcoming sequel, "The Resurrection of Jesus Christ," directed by Mel Gibson, coming in May, 2027. Shouldn't we be supportive as all the other actors were unknown?  Jim Caviezel was mysteriously 33 years old when he played Jesus Christ . . . now decades have passed. What is your opinion?


Jaakko Ohtonen above as Jesus Christ in the forthcoming film, "The Resurrection of Jesus Christ,"  coming May 2027.  Here is a wikipedia link on Jaakko Ohtonen.


Now, we turn to Jonathan Roumie, who rose to global fame in the groundbreaking series, "The Chosen," which began as a crowdfunded project helmed by creator and director, Dallas Jenkins.







Now, let's turn to the film, Risen (2016), whose producers cast, Cliff Curtis in the role of Jesus Christ.  It was a bold casting decision. Shouldn't grace in the role be considered? 







Now, we turn to the film, "Son of God," (2014) starring Diogo Morgado as Jesus Christ, produced by Mark Burnett and Roma Downey. 









We have been blessed with all the above actors who have given remarkable performances. We must support all who have the courage and are called to proclaim, Jesus Christ as Savior, Redeemer and Messiah to the world. What are your thoughts? 




COMING SOON: "Armor of Light III," by author, Peter Arnold, the triumphant ending to the Christian angelic mystical suspense ebook series! Keep watching for more details!

Reflect The Eyes of Jesus Christ - Hope, Unity and Peace - Christians Illuminating Light - Peter Gabriel - Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story - Peter Arnold



Our Q & A Continues With Peter Arnold, Christian Angelic Mystical Suspense Thriller Author, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story" (eBook series)

Heaven's Doorway Press - Q & A with author, Peter Arnold:

Question: Peter, given the call for national unity and healing, what inspires you on this path of enlightenment?

"We need to be the 'eyes of Christ,' which is Love itself.  First, we must look at each human being as beautifully made with the spark of God.  Each person is unique for this age and time. Second, to remember Jesus Christ's new commandment: 'Love One Another.'  Thus, if we can meditate on these as 'Holy guideposts,' we can stay on the right path of illumination."
















"A remarkable song of unity, 'In Your Eyes,' has been resonating with me lately . . . is by the accomplished musician and songwriter, Peter Gabriel.  Below are some of the main lyrics and a performance with Youssou N'Dour. (The link to the video is the caption of the pic)."

"In Your Eyes" Performed By Peter Gabriel and Youssou N'Dour

"After you watch the above video, you may want to discern the hidden treasures in the remarkable lyrics.  Can you imagine if you could gaze right now into the eyes of our Lord Jesus Christ, what would you see? The light of 1,000 churches? Would you see His eternal love for you and the universe reflected in His eyes? Will your eyes be transformed into His vision by the Holy Spirit? Is the light of Jesus Christ's eyes, 'In Your Eyes,'? When you finally see the face of Christ, will you see your face reflected in His eyes? Will your eyes become His eyes as beacons of hope, mercy and love?"







Here are the lyrics to the song for you to contemplate:

In Your Eyes”

By Songwriter Peter Gabriel


I get so lost, sometimes

Days pass and this emptiness fills my heart.

When I want to run away

I drive off in my car.

But whichever way I go

I come back to the place you are.


All my instincts, they return

And the grand facade, so soon will burn,

Without a noise, without my pride

I reach out from the inside.


In your eyes

The light, the heat

(Your eyes)

I am complete

(Your eyes)

I see the doorway to a thousand churches

(Your eyes)


The resolution of all the fruitless searches

(Your eyes)

I see the light and the heat

(Your eyes)

I want to be that compete

I want to touch the light

The heat I see in your eyes

In your eyes

In your eyes

In your eyes


Love, I don’t like to see so much pain

So much wasted and this moment keeps slipping away

I get so tired of working so hard for our survival

I look to the time with you to keep me awake and alive


All my instincts, they return

And the grand facade, so soon will burn,

Without a noise, without my pride

I reach out from the inside.


In your eyes

The light, the heat

(Your eyes)

I am complete

(Your eyes)

I see the doorway to a thousand churches

(Your eyes)


The resolution of all the fruitless searches

(Your eyes)

I see the light and the heat

(Your eyes)

I want to be that compete

I want to touch the light

The heat I see in your eyes

In your eyes

In your eyes

In your eyes


Accepting all I’ve done and said

I want to stand and stare again

’Til there is nothing left, whoa,

It remains there in your eyes

Whatever comes and goes

Oh, it’s in your eyesI

Flying Saints - Levitating Holy Saints You Should Know - Humble Mystical Powers of the Holy Spirit - Monks and Nuns - Defying Gravity Towards Heavenly Realms The Flying Nun Santos

 



Our Q & A Continues With Peter Arnold, Christian Angelic Mystical Suspense Thriller Author, "Armor of Light: A Trilogy Story" (ebook series)

Heaven's Doorway Press - Q & A with author, Peter Arnold:

Question: Peter, who are some of the mystical saints the faithful saw and reported flying or levitating?

"One of the most popular, is Saint Joseph of Cupertino who witnesses saw levitate more than 70 times!  He was sincerely humble and selfless with an early devotion and calling to be a Franciscan monk.  He was initially denied due to issues others saw 'with his capacity to learn' and didn't feel he could keep up with the rigorous demands of study.  By the grace of God, he persevered and eventually was accepted into the Jesuit Order." 



"There are six notable Catholic saints who share this extraordinary gift of levitation. The saint is usually embarrassed about being seen 'hovering above the ground' and usually unaware as they are in spiritual ecstasy or 'in union with God' . . . their soul soars towards heaven forgetting they are 'still in physical form.'"





"Church officials emphasize the gift of levitation is not 'earned or an inevitable result of holiness, nor merely consolations.' The above saints loved God so completely to be 'united to Him in such sweetness and purity that He pulled their souls heavenward in supernatural communion, of which the human body is powerless to resist.'"
