She and other healed women were following Jesus and the Twelve and were "contributing to their support out of their private means" (Luke 8: 1-3). She had been healed by Jesus (seven demons had gone out from her). What do we know about Mary Magdalene from the Bible? 1. I'm aware that the biblical data on Mary are scarce, and some imagination is needed to flesh out her story, but here imagination has gone wild and plainly contradicting the Scriptures. I hadn't great expectations, but what we watched was far worse than what I could guess.

That someone could be made angry or put off by this idea seems incomprehensible to me The message of personal responsibility is so crucial in these times when it feels like the world is speeding ever so quickly towards irreversible change - where that change is directed is up to us and if we are all sitting on our thumbs we may neglect our own responsibility and contributions in the matter. They helped create in their folly a system of belief which removes personal responsibility and promotes complacent self righteousness in apathy which seems so common today. Ironically, a movie that is supposed to be about Mary Magdalene is the best cinematic telling of the Jesus story that I have seen - it takes care to communicate understandably how Jesus's real teachings could become skewed by disciples who had their own ideas about the way they thought things should be, or would prefer them to be. That is the sore thumb and the tragedy of many of the efforts of modern evangelists millions of Christians await Christ's return yet make no serious effort to live by Christ's teachings. Centuries of self-identified "Christians" with no real love of peace, truth or compassion at the helm of the West and look where it has gotten us. It is strange that this idea could put a bad taste into someones mouth- that it is OUR responsibility to save the world - pretty much the opposite message of "sola fide" - the doctrine introduced by the Lutheran church that it is only through faith in the divinity of Jesus alone and not through works we achieve "salvation". Great acting, great perspective, great story.

At the same time that Mary feels more passionate about Jesus and his vision of the world and people, Peter starts to feel a progressive resentment to her, in the belief that Mary's presence in the group weakens Jesus and his message, who each time pays more attention to her. She meets a few men who too walk with Jesus as Peter, Andrew, James, John and Judas, who have their personal interests and ideas about Jesus' words and his revolution. Astonished by the charisma, personality and words of Jesus, Mary decides to follow him despite the strong opposition of her family.
