XL: The Temptation of Christ

Really enjoyed this movie, plenty of scripture and a good watch, those that have given bad reviews " especially the same guy twice " may possibly be non believers that did watch it all, or maybe? Just maybe want to put others off. Don't fall for this rubbish , even if they did watch it all then they did so with poor understanding of what happened, as Christians we both really enjoyed the movie, if you are not then please don't try and dissuade people who have faith, not in what is seen but what is unseen, because what is seen is fleeting and what is unseen is eternal. Oh and no violence etc so All in all a good clean adaptation that a Christian family can watch ,without the worldy rubbish and lies. Oh and every thing said by the actor portraying Jesus IS ACTUALLY SCRIPTURE " EXEPT 2 LINES" SO BIBLICALLY ACCURATE.

It is a really good movie, the music, the way they have captured the light when Jesus is talking is just amazing. its a perfect movie for anyone that has read the bible and or also for any movie lovers out there.

This movie was nothing short of AMAZING and I hope more Bible believing and knowing Christians get to see it because it uses A LOT of scripture. We should be immersed in God's word and know it through and through and understand what the Spirit is saying. For those who thought this was boring, perhaps you should read your Bible more or do you find that boring too? Every single word Jesus spoke was from scripture and so it brought everything together for me since I was reminded of verses in both the old and New Testament. I am only 25 years old but I love reading scripture since it is my daily bread. I felt fed and full after watching this on pureflix. Thank you so so so much for this.

Personally I thought the conversation between Jesus and satan was very insightful and gave a better understanding of the scriptures and a reality of what he went through doing that time. I like to read the Word of God in layman's terms and this movie really helped to give a basic understanding of what Jesus went through and the deceptive ways of satan and and how he comes from man. He is a deceiver. I also thought the way Jesus dealt with it in this movie really brought it home for what we go through daily with the enemy. I found it to be very relatable..... And I really appreciate that! This movie may not reach all in a positive way but it definitely makes me want to study more and draw closer to the Lord.

I watched this movie with my kids and they kept asking did Jesus really act like that? Why is he afraid? Why is he acting like that? And I totally agree with them, They portray Jesus as startled and slightly in fear and contemplative of being tempted. Not only that, it shows Jesus as being tempted throughout the 40 days when it says in Mathew that he prayed and fasted for 40 days and then the devil tempted Him and Jesus quickly put an end to it, Jesus was never actually "tempted" meaning the thought of bowing down to satan never appealed to Him because He knew who He was. Now this doesn't necessarily make Jesus seem like He's considering but it kinda does, it certainly doesn't portray Him as quickly quoting scripture and putting Satan in his place. Also it portrays Jesus as almost a normal boy in His youth, all I could think of was the boy actor just maybe wasn't able to act and speak? Not putting him down but I assume they just made the roll easy for the kid as he barely spoke. I get people want to add creativity and imagine what could have happened but please at least keep it in the boundaries of being biblically accurate.
