No.

- [Announcer] Citizens of Rome, welcome to the arena.

For your viewing pleasure today,

I present to you Castus,

the champion of [crowd and music drown out words],

and the man who needs no introduction,

the undefeated new recruit, Veridius!

But first, we will give them this man,

this treacherous slave, to execute.

Veridius, give him a chance.

Well, we have a new champion,

but before you earn your freedom, slave,

this crowd must have blood.

Who will it be, this Carthaginian family and enemy of Rome

or this heretic preacher from the Eastern waste?

It is your choice.

You refuse, then it be your blood in the sand today.

It's your life or theirs. A life for a life.

[dramatic suspenseful music] [man gasps]

[flames crackle]

A life for a life.

[soft dramatic music]

Thank you, Father, for giving me this life.

[wood strikes] [flame whooshes]

Yes, proper pen, proper quill, proper ink.

Yes, I must continue to write this.

[rocks clatter in distance]

Is someone there?

I wasn't expecting a visitor.

Well, hello. I didn't even see you come in.

Don't be shy.

Ah, I suppose you've come here to steal some of my food,

haven't you?

I think I have just a thing. Yes.

It's all right, child.

You've come to do your clever bit

of thievery in a safe place.

[soft ethereal music] [footsteps shuffle]

What is your name, beloved?

- I am called Asher. I cannot stay.

It's Legasus.

If he finds out- - Ah.

- Do not worry about the Roman soldiers.

They've been trying to scare me for years. [laughs]

How long have you been on the island?

- Master paid coin for me six weeks past.

- So you are a slave, which means,

like me, you were a criminal.

The question is what kind of criminal?

- I'm a thief.

- [laughs] Not a very good one, it would seem. [laughs]

- I stole this.

- Your master's? - Yes.

- Not a good idea.

- Well, what was your crime?

- [Speaker] My crime

was sharing the good news about my master.

- Are you a slave? - No, beloved.

- Then why are you here? - On the island?

Well, can you keep a secret? I am in exile.

This is my prison.

Did you know the Romans, they tried to kill me first.

This is true. Yes.

They tried to have me executed in the arena by a gladiator.

Ooh. They tried to beat me to death with reeds.

Ouch. They tried to poison me.

They even boiled me in oil. Who does that anyway? [laughs]

This is for you boy, for your journey home.

You need it more than I. [laughs]

- You're not what I expected. Thank you.

- Yes. But food is not the reason you've come, is it?

- I'm a thief. I was hungry.

- Yes, but the olive grove between your master's camp

and here was much closer, certainly safer.

No.

You've heard the rumors about the old man

and about what I have.

- I must return to my master. - Of course. Of course.

But there are still hours left in the night,

and if I am not mistaken, it is not your master

that holds your interest on this night.

It is mine. You've come to find the story.

- [Asher] Who are you?

- I think you already know that or you wouldn't have come.

- The men whisper. They say you know things.

- I do, beloved. - But who are you?

- My name is John,

and I am the last living disciple of Jesus Christ,

and I have a secret.

I was his favorite disciple. [laughs]

It's true! It's true!

Come here, my boy. I'll show you for myself.

It's, it's written right here in my book.

"The disciple whom Jesus loved." [laughs] Yes.

It is a book I'm writing myself.

[Asher and John laugh]

- But was he really eight feet tall?

- Sorry?

- They say he was the most powerful man who ever lived.

- Indeed, he was that and also the gentlest and the kindest

and, well, it's all written right here in my book.

Yes, that's I'll tell you what.

We'll share the light. You read, I'll write.

- I do not know the letters. - Oh yes.

Well, if the story cannot be read, it must be told.

You have taken a great risk being here tonight,

especially if you are discovered,

but my heart is so very glad you are here.

Now, sit. Sit!

You see, if we are going to tell the story of Jesus,

it is going to take some time

as we must travel back long before my time.

To know the truth,

we must travel back to the very beginning of time.

[soft ethereal music]

[soft moving ethereal vocals]

- [Voice of Heaven] In the beginning was the word,

and the word was with God, and the word was God.

Before time and space, God existed.

With his son,

He ruled the heavens with all the beings they had created,

and all the creatures of heaven worshiped God

in his light and majesty.

[soaring instrumental music with choral vocals]

[soft dramatic music]

But everything changed.

One of the angels began to seek worship for himself

rather than the God who created him.

One third of all the angels turned to Lucifer,

and, in his arrogance, Lucifer was cast out of heaven,

sentenced to forever be the enemy of God.

[dark dramatic music with dramatic vocals]

[slow dramatic music]

The creative hand of God moved once again

across time and space.

He would design new places of wonder and beauty.

He shaped planets and stars, galaxies too numerous to count.

[soaring instrumental music with rousing vocals]

[soft tense music with vocals in foreign language]

Finally, God created his masterpiece.

From the dust of the earth,

He fashioned a being in his own image.

Unlike any other living thing,

this creation had the ability to think, feel, and choose.

[soft rousing music]

[soft bright music with bright vocals]

God created all humankind to have relationship with him.

[soft tense music]

But the enemy tempted men to disobey their creator.

A wall was built between the race of men

and the God who loved them.

[soft dramatic music]

To remove the wall and defeat the enemy,

a sacrifice had to be made.

God would send his son to reunite humankind

with their creator.

The battle lines were drawn.

Finally, all was ready for the arrival.

[dramatic music]

[dramatic vocals in foreign language]

[soft dramatic music]

But the Savior did not arrive,

and as days stretched into years,

the pain birthed from rebellion spread across the land,

enslaving the people of God.

Hundreds of years slipped away.

No longer did they question when Savior would arrive

but if a savior would arrive at all.

[soft ethereal music]

- [Voice of Heaven] It was a cry that stunned

and enraptured every creature of heaven,

but the realms of men did not hear it,

and so the child grew up in peace and obscurity.

He learned the wisdom of his father and from the teachings

of those who would one day oppose him,

and as the world waited, his mother watched over him.

She held him close and she called him Jesus.

[dramatic music]

[rousing instrumental music with choral vocals]

[water splashes]

[soft ethereal music] [flames crackle]

- I was there, you know, when Jesus was baptized.

I'm not bragging, I'm just saying. [laughs]

- What were you doing there?

- Oh, you can't imagine a lonely fisherman

like me being at such an important event?

- Not really. - Well, let me tell you

about the time that I actually met Jesus.

I was with my dear friend Peter by the shore

when Jesus actually walked right up to us.

I remember it well.

He said, "I will make you fishes of men."

- Gross.

- [laughs] That's exactly what Peter and I thought.

We would come to understand later.

You see, there was just something about this man, Jesus.

Up until that time, you know,

I'd only really just seen him from a distance,

but that day, when he walked up to me,

he looked at me as if he'd known me my entire life.

What is that? - Nothing.

My last master forced us all to wear them.

He said it should remind us of what we are.

- And what are you? - I'm a thief.

- Hmm. I have not seen one like it on the island before.

- My new master doesn't care about them.

- Then why wear it?

Well, in those days I wasn't the only one to follow Jesus.

Men and women from all over. So many things to follow then.

Some even believed he was the Messiah.

- What's a messiah? - It's a hero.

It was foretold of by our elders long ago.

- To save you from the Romans?

- [John] That's what some people thought, yes.

- So how'd he do it? How'd he beat them?

- Well he started by selecting 12 of us

to be his closest friends and students.

There was Philip, Thomas,

my brother James, of course, Thaddeus.

He was the prankster of the group. [laughs]

- Well what about Peter? - Oh, Peter.

Well, Peter followed Jesus faster

than I could put on my sandals.

His motto, "Act first, think later." [laughs]

Yes. The master saw something in him,

called him Rock, and he was.

Now which one is me?

Oh, come on. Can't you see the resemblance?

That's right! That's right, sitting right next to Jesus!

[laughs] Yes. No question about it.

Little visual aid here.

Jesus, the disciple whom Jesus loved. [laughs]

Oh beloved, look here. Look here.

This man is Judas.

I tell you there were times that Judas was so filled

with joy that he could hardly contain himself!

But there were other times, Judas.

How often I wondered what was going on

behind those dark eyes of yours.

I believe it's his eyes that I remember the most,

the kind of eyes that could look right into a man's soul,

see his hopes and dreams, his fear, even his sin

and love you just the same.

- Seems like a good group of men.

- It was. - So why tell me?

Why should I care if Jesus surrounded himself with good men?

- Ah, I see,

just a gentle group of fishermen and merchants, right?

No harlots, no criminals, mo thieves.

What if I told you that's one of the best nights

of my life was spent in the house of a thief like you?

- Sometimes I cannot tell when you are joking.

- I'm not.

Matthew stole more coins from good men

than you've ever seen in your life.

Yet Jesus sought him out, went to his house,

and performed miracles right then and there.

- What kind of miracles? - The kind that people needed.

I saw blind children see at lame beggars walk.

I saw him cure the incurable and forgive the unforgivable!

- You saw all that? Real miracles?

- Oh we all did, beloved,

all because Jesus went to the party for a thief.

[soaring instrumental music] [people shout out joyfully]

That day, Jesus fed over 5,000 people, beloved,

and it all started with five loaves and two fish.

Somehow everybody ate and everyone was satisfied.

I tell you, beloved, word began to spread that the Messiah,

a true hero, had finally come to rescue his people.

[soaring instrumental music] [audience cheers and applauds]

[table clatters]

[objects clatter]

[soft bright music]

[soaring instrumental music] [people cheer]

"Hosannah, Hosannah!" they shouted, boy.

- [laughs] That is a funny word.

- May sound funny to you, but to my people,

it meant save us.

It was a common greeting to welcome home a victorious king.

Here, eat this. - Thank you.

I was wondering-

- [Soldier 1] Anything? Have you seen anything?

- No. No sign of him yet. - Now keep looking.

- [Soldier 2] Oh yeah. He couldn't have gone far.

- [Soldier 1] The master will have your head

if he gets away.

Believe me, someone's taking a beating for this.

No one steals from Legasus. - No, we'll find him,

and he'll be sorry when we do.

[footsteps shuffle] [tense brooding music]

- Best to keep our voices down, no?

- I should not have come. - Ah, do not worry, beloved.

Generally, they leave me quite alone.

So let me tell you what happened next.

Jesus asked my brother and I to go

and secure a place for supper to celebrate the Passover.

Some of my favorite memories were eating with my friends.

We would laugh and tell stories.

Peter loved to tell the story about the time

that he walked on the water with Jesus.

- He did? - He did.

Ah, it's a wild story, but I tell you,

there was something different about that night,

something different about Jesus.

He, when he took the bread and he broke it,

he said, "This is my body broken for you.

Eat this and remember me."

Then he took the cup.

He said, "This is my blood poured out

for the forgiveness of your sins.

Drink it and remember me." - What does that even mean?

- Well, we didn't understand either.

I mean we were familiar with the traditions of our faith,

but Jesus said this was his body, his blood, but I tell you,

the next words out of his mouth were even more confusing.

Jesus said that, "On this night, one of you will betray me."

Well Peter jumped to his feet,

said, "Lord, I would never betray you."

- [Asher] Well what did you do?

- Well, I whispered in the master's here,

"Master, which one of us will it be?"

And Jesus said, "It is the one who dips his bread

in the cup with me next."

And just then, His eyes caught the eyes of Judas.

[unsettling eerie music] [muffled whispers echo]

[singers sings in foreign language]

[Satan exhales loudly]

[eerie dramatic music with high-pitched vocals]

[muffled whispers echo]

[dramatic music with dramatic choral vocals]

[dark brooding music] [muffled whispers echo]

[person screams]

And with compassion in his eyes, Jesus said to Judas,

"Go and do what you must do.

Do it quickly."

- Are you just trying to scare me?

- No, beloved. Did you think that he wasn't real?

Oh, I assure you, Satan is very real indeed.

He is your enemy.

He is the reason for the hatred

and violence you have seen in the heart of men.

But he's more than that.

[footsteps shuffle]

He is the whisper in your own mind,

the one who condemns you, who says, "You are a thief.

You have the heart of a thief," oh, but he's a liar,

and when he lies he speaks his native tongue.

Do not believe him. You are not powerless.

You are not alone! Listen to me.

If Christ Jesus is alive in you,

then greater is he that is in you

than he that is in the world.

Do not believe him, beloved. - Why do you call me that?

- Because you are not unlovable!

You are not this worthless thing you believe you are.

- I have to go. - I wish you would stay.

- Why? Is your story about to get happier?

- No, but you should hear it, and besides,

the Roman soldiers have not gone far,

and you are still carrying a ring that you should not have.

The path should be clear by dawn.

- I'm already a slave. What more can they do?

- Ah, there is always more they can do.

- So what did Jesus do? How did he stop Judas?

- He said he needed to pray.

He took us to a garden just outside the city.

I must confess that I fell asleep,

And when I awoke, the garden, it was changed.

It was darker than anything I have ever felt.

What happened next is very difficult to explain.

- Why? - Because I could not see it,

but I could hear Jesus call out to his father.

He said, "If there is any other way,

let this cup pass from me.

Nevertheless, not my will but yours be done."

He was making the most important decision of his life,

and the enemy thought he could stop him.

Oh, I tell you a spiritual battle raged all

around us that night, and,

while I could not see it with my eyes,

I could feel it in the very depths of my soul.

[bell tolls]

[coins clatter]

[flames crackle]

- I don't understand.

Why would Jesus just let them take him like that?

- [John] None of us understood at the time.

- Well, well why did you just betray him?

- I don't know. - Was it for the silver?

- I don't know. - But Jesus trusted him

and Judas just turned on him?

I'm glad he hung himself! - I am not.

- So tell me why it happened. Why did Judas do it?

- I don't know. - That's not good enough!

- Whatever darkness was in Judas' heart,

he, he kept to himself.

He did not trust it to Jesus.

Had he done so, things may have been different.

All I know is that Judas did what he did,

and when he saw what he'd done,

he believed the greatest lie of all.

- What lie? - That he was beyond hope.

Even though Judas had seen Jesus extend forgiveness again

and again and again,

he did not believe that same forgiveness

could be offered to him.

He felt ruined and alone.

That kind of darkness is hard to overcome.

But we all betrayed the master that night in the garden.

I ran as fast as my legs could carry me.

It was some time before I found myself

outside the home of the high priest.

I could hear a trial going on, only, only it was no trial.

It was a mockery, I tell you! They spit on Jesus!

They slapped his face, demanding that he show them respect!

But they could not do the one thing they wanted more

than anything else, and that was to crucify him.

So they dragged him to the streets

to the home of the one man in all of Jerusalem

who could order a crucifixion.

Let me tell you, as long as I live,

I will not forget face or the words of that man.

Pontius Pilate.

[crowd roars] [dramatic music]

- Maximus, get this crowd under control.

Claphus, it is the Passover.

Why do you trouble me with this man?

Is all of this your doing?

Woman, you should not be here. This man is your son.

People of Jerusalem, friends of Rome,

it is my custom at the time of your feast

to release to you one prisoner.

Therefore, in keeping with my tradition,

I shall return to you today one of your own.

Shall I free this murdering thief, Barabbas?

Or shall I release Jesus, who is called the Christ

and in whom I find no fault?

[people shout indistinctly]

Silence!

You've made their choice, and, according to your wishes,

I give back to you Barabbas.

[crowd cheers] [body thuds]

But I, too, have chosen, and I shall have this man,

your Messiah, punished and then released.

Crucify? Crucify?

You would have me crucify your king?

So be it.

I shall have this man executed today,

but I find no fault with him,

and I wash my hands on his blood.

His blood should be on your head.

Maximus, come. Let's get this over with.

If they want blood, give 'em blood.

39 for the glory of Rome, and I am Rome!

[dramatic music] [crowd roars]

[chains clatter]

- I was there in the crowd.

[soft ethereal music] [John whimpers]

Never before have I seen at the same time

in one man's eyes such hate

while in the other man's eyes such love.

Jesus.

[whip clatters]

Behold the Roman whip,

nine leather straps woven with pieces of iron and glass

and bones carved like hooks, designed to tear a man apart!

And I watched as the man assigned to whip Jesus,

he, he pulled back with all of his might!

[John cries out] [whip snaps and rattles]

- [Asher] Are you okay?

39 times! 39!

I thought it would never end!

[slow dramatic music]

By the time they were finished with him,

I did not recognize him.

Skin hung from his back and his legs,

and there was so much blood.

I could not see his eyes. - What did you do?

- Just, I just watched. There was nothing I could do!

They forced him to carry his cross through the streets

of Jerusalem all the way to Golgotha.

It was there that they stretched out Jesus' arms

and his legs,

and they pounded eight-inch spikes through his flesh!

- You do not have to tell me, not if you do not want to.

- No. He would want you to know of it.

You see, he did it all, all of it for you.

[dramatic pounding music] [crowd roars]

- Walk away. End this.

[footsteps shuffle]

[footsteps shuffle] [waves crash in distance]

- Ah, my beloved.

You know, not a day goes by that I don't remember the cross

and the price that Jesus paid for us.

- I thought you told me that Jesus was going to become king.

They don't crucify kings.

- Yes, I thought the same thing.

But I've come to understand something now

that I didn't understand before.

Jesus did come to rescue us, just not as I expected.

Do you know who I believe was the very first one

to understand what Jesus truly did for us?

- Who? - Do you see this chain?

I found this chain connected to a pair of shackles

at the foot of the cross, just lying there.

I believe it belonged to Barabbas, the murderous thief.

Yet on the very day he was to be executed,

Jesus was punished, and Barabbas, well, Barabbas went free.

- Hmm.

[footsteps shuffle]

I still do not understand.

- Here's the truth, beloved.

God sent his son Jesus to the world

to show us just how much he loves us,

first through his life, then through his death in our place.

All that is left is to believe,

to believe that Jesus is who he said he is

and that he loves the boy that you are.

Listen to me, nothing,

absolutely nothing can separate you from the love of God.

- I like that. - So tell me.

Who are you really? - I am Asher.

- Oh. And what are you? - I am not sure yet.

- Yes, well.

- I do not know the letters. - It's all right.

This one I have written in your tongue.

I still remember watching Jesus draw his final breath,

and he said "It is finished."

- I'm so sorry. - It is all right, beloved,

because it wasn't finished, not yet.

Come. I felt emptier than I ever had in my entire life.

I mean, what was I supposed to do?

Just go back to my fishing boat after everything I'd seen,

after everything that-

[dark brooding music]

- [Soldier 1] Do you have any idea what awaits

for you after what you took?

- [Asher] I didn't take it. I'm not a thief!

- You were a thief when we bought you and you are one still.

- I promise, I don't have it!

[slap thuds] [body thuds]

- You deserve that. - He didn't take it.

- Silence, old man. - He didn't take it!

- How would you know of it? - Because I did.

- Wait! - On your knees.

[slow dramatic music] [John grunts]

- Why? - Read the ending.

- Please don't take him!

- Boy, the master doesn't want to see you again.

- Look at me. Look at me.

You are not broken. - What if I am?

- You see, there is always for you, for me, for them.

- How? - Because Jesus

did stay in the grave. - On your feet.

- No, please! Don't take him!

to spread like a wild fire.

Soon, James planted a church in Jerusalem,

and Andrew went to Asia Minor, and Peter,

[laughs] Peter preached one message on the day of Pentecost,

and 3,000 came to faith.

Now that is what I called being a fisher of men.

Oh yes, and Thomas went to India, and soon, beloved,

others joined our ranks like the apostle Paul

who wrote letters to the churches in Corinth in Philippi,

letters that we read to this very day.

Yes, but, well, as for me, Jesus' favorite disciple,

[laughs] well, I landed here on Patmos,

and I promise you this.

Wherever I go, wherever I am taken,

I will continue to record God's revelation

and teach the reality of his love to those who seek it,

and that is what you must remember, my son,

that he loves you so much that he gave his one and only son

that whoever believes in him shall not perish

but will have everlasting life.
