Jesus Christ Weather Tempter Sent Or Tempest Tossed

At this he parts from his followers and journeys to the desert there he finds himself tempted by the Satan three times and leaves the desert with a new teaching, that of the axe to tear down the old world to build up a new one. .
             Soon he begins to perform many miracles such as turning water to wine, curing the sick, and resurrecting Lazarus from the dead. He goes to the temple and becomes enraged at the money exchange that is taking place there. He starts kicking over tables and claims to come back in three days to burn the temple to the ground. He goes back with his followers and soon it becomes clear to him that god wants him to die on the cross and when he returns to the temple to burn it down he instead leaves shaken when wounds appear to bleed like a stigmata. He is taken from the temple and tells Judas to turn him in so he may die on the cross to fulfill his destiny. Judas is reluctant but agrees. .
             The story takes an unusual twist when Jesus is on the cross. In his delirium he is tempted one last time by a little girl who comes to him to take him down from the cross so that he may live the rest of his life happily. There is scene in which he and Mary Magdalene are married and have kids. At the end of his life his old disciples come and Judas reprimands him for not doing what should have been done for being selfish. Once he realizes the little girl is none other than Satan. At these he crawls from his bed to the top of a hill and begs forgiveness from god and with that it cuts to him dying on the cross.
             This movie in my eyes depicts Jesus in a way that I can't help but feel is accurate. Jesus appears to be human and divine as the bible said he should be. For Jesus to be tempted he must experience turmoil and the choice other wise he isn't being tempted at all. I have seen movies such as Jesus Christ Superstar and The King of Kings. All these picture a romanticized Jesus one whose idea of being perfect is that of being flawless.
