Jesus…No Greater Love will be a word for word, verse by verse film adaptation of the Gospel according to John. “The gospel is the power of God unto salvation. That’s really our concept, that the gospel would go out in the power of the film medium, unaltered by any human script writer,” Marchiano says.
This new Jesus movie is more than just a technological update of previous films in the genre. “The story as it is traditionally told begins in a manger or with John the Baptist and takes us through the events of Jesus’ human life healing, teaching, the cross and the resurrection,” Marchiano says. “Jesus…No Greater Love tells the story from the point where it truly began‘in the beginning’ as John writes, with Jesus as God before the dawn of time and creation.”
Many people have formed their understanding of Jesus from the images that movies have shown Jesus as a weakling, showing little emotion and pausing often to gaze at the heavens. Marchiano’s Jesus is a passionate hero, God’s perfect embodiment of manhood, who gives everything to complete His mission. For the first time, the gospel will be revealed through the prophetic, holistic, kingdom perspective of Jesus, whose every move fulfilled the past, reached out to the present and provided for the future. The script includes imagery that ties specific moments in Jesus’ ministry to Old Testament prophecy, Israel’s past and glimpses of Revelation.
