Would you consider yourself to be a good person? How many lies have you told, and what do you call someone who lies? Have you ever stolen something, and what do you call someone who steals? Have you ever taken God’s name in vain (very serious; in Old Testament times, the Jews wouldn’t even say the name of God for fear of blasphemy) - even ‘OMG’? One more: Jesus said whoever looks at a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery in his heart; have you ever looked with lust? Well I’m not judging you - but if you’ve done these things then you’re a liar, thief, blasphemer and adulterer-at-heart; that’s how seriously God takes sin. He is Holy (perfectly good/righteous and separate from sin) which means that H e is perfect in justice - and if He were to judge you by the moral law (we’ve already looked at 4 commandments) would you be innocent or guilty? Heaven or Hell? The answer is hell - the wrath of God upon you for your sin. Is that concerning? But fortunately, God’s will is not that you perish. He wants all men everywhere to be saved. So do you know what He did for us guilty sinners? In self-giving mercy, He sent His Son Jesus Christ. He lived the perfect life that we should have lived - tempted at all points and yet He NEVER sinned. Through His life, being in very nature God, He revealed God to men; but we in our hatred condemned Him to death. On that cross as Jesus suffered, He took on the sin of the world and was judged in our place; receiving God’s wrath. You and I broke God’s law, but Jesus paid the fine. God can justly forgive us. On that cross He died, then He was buried, but 3 days later He was raised from the dead - conquering death and Hell and ushering in The Kingdom of God. He then ascended to the right hand of God the Father (where He came from) now Lord of the living and the dead. God has fixed a date when He will judge the world in righteousness. What you need to do is repent (In humility, acknowledge your sin before God and turn to a relationship with Him) and trust ALONE in Jesus Christ and His work on the cross; and God will grant you the gift of the Holy Spirit. Then be baptised. When you place your trust in Jesus - the Lord and Saviour - these things will happen: 1) God will forgive the sins that you have committed; they were paid for by Jesus at the cross. 2) The perfect life that Jesus lived will be credited to you. He will find you holy and blameless on judgement day (and now), as Christ’s righteousness covers you. 3) You receive a place in Christ’s kingdom as an adopted child of God. God becomes your Father. Eternal life isn’t just about living forever, but a personal relationship with God Himself. That life can start now; The Father will reveal Himself to you if you seek Him. 4) God doesn’t just save you from the penalty of your sin (Hell). He can save you from the power of sin itself. Whoever practices sin is a slave of sin; but when you repent and believe the gospel [WHICH HAS BEEN DESCRIBED] the Holy Spirit comes to dwell in you and sanctify you (working in you to further abandon sin and turn to the will of God). When the end of the age comes, and eternity begins, this work will be brought to completion as you are finally freed from the presence of sin. Jesus offers to take away your sin and to give you His righteousness; you must receive it by faith. Choose this day if you will align with the world, or with Jesus and His kingdom - only His is eternal. ROMANS 10:9 - If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. EPHESIANS 2:8-9 - For by grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no-one may boast

Oscar was NEVER more deserved, absolutely SPECTACULAR performance,one of the most iconic characters ever created.

When my son was about 11 years old he entered a Jaycee Relay Race. He’d never ran track before and didn’t know everybody wore shorts. He came in jeans, to everyone’s amusement. He ran the last leg for his team - and came away the fastest runner of the day, and made up considerable distance to win. This video made me think of that day. How I wish I had been able to see it, instead of only hear and read about it. I was a single mom and had to work. My son was an amazing athlete. ❤️

Absolutely the best movie ever. Masterpiece. Perfect cast, every one of them. Perfect costumes. Perfect. I have yet to see a better film!

Let's not forget that in the lead up to the Oscars, there was no clear frontrunner for the Best Actor award. That prize was evenly distributed among other people at other ceremonies (Crowe won the Critics Choice; Tom Hanks won the Golden Globe; Benicio Del Toro won SAG (Del Toro won the Oscar in the Supporting category), while Jamie Bell (who wasn't even nominated at the Oscars) won the BAFTA). This category was up in the air at the time.

Yah he really ruined his shot at winning back to back Oscars after he roughed up someone at the BAFTA awards, and essentially alienated himself from Hollywood. It was his to lose. He had a good chance at winning 3 oscars in a row with his performance in The Insider, as the race was supposedly pretty close between him, Denzel, and Kevin Spacey.

@Maaden84

4 жыл бұрын

Nope, Denzel deserved it, really stupid to say that he didnt. Kinda obvious why you think he didnt tho

Russell crowe is looking a billion bucks.Honestly i feel that he definitely deserved an Oscar for gladiator,his acting was so subtle .

This was a tough one. Because Tom Hanks WAS Castaway, and carrying an entire movie basically by yourself is a feat, Russel Crowe showed his entire range, while being utterly believable and real in his delivery in somewhat of an unreal movie. He 'became' Maximus in a role that others may have overacted. You suspended disbelief and absorbed the character and story.

I watched gladiator twice last week. The movie speaks to my heart like no other! Im thankful for everyone involved.

A lot of people praise Russell Crowe for his stunning performance in the Gladiator but truth to speak, this movie wouldn't be what it is if not for Phoenix. My credits go to both of them equally.

I have seen the movie several times and i have never felt bored and this explains the biggest success of the product, so i think they worth it 🙌👏💓👍, you rock Russel Crowe, thank you so much.

just go back through time and you can just see how happy Joaquin Phoenix is when his friends and fellow actors win, and rewind to when he won for Joker he still takes more time talking about his fellow actors etc then himself.

Russell Crowe's acceptance speech without reading was as good as his Gladiator performance IMO!! Brilliant

The most humble acceptance speech award of all time.

In 2002, for A Beautiful Mind, Russell Crowe won the SAG, Golden Globes, BAFTA and Critics Choice. Only award he didn't win was the Oscar, which went to Denzel Washington for Training Day instead. But Denzel Washington should have won for Malcolm X, but that year Oscar went to Al Pacino for Scent of a Woman. But Al Pacino should have won for Dog Day Afternoon and The Godfather. So, as you can see, it's a vicious cycle created by the Academy. God knows when this will stop.

Dead right! That was an amazing film. As these topics are talked about more these days, l find myself thinking back to that story. Remember he had that temper tantram, and through a telephone at a hotel receptionist, not long before the oscars. They gave it to Denzil Washington, which was pretty clever, as he is very popular, and the first [l think] African American male to win it. How could anybody protest about that?

juie anderson No, he didn't win for A BEAUTIFUL MIND, which was strange because he had won all the precursors (Critics Choice, Golden Globe, SAG, BAFTA). Clearly, he was the favorite to win. But at the BAFTAs Crowe roughed up the TV executive who cut his speech short, before Crowe read a poem he had prepared. www.theguardian.com/media/2002/feb/26/broadcasting Also, Julia Roberts (the previous year's Best Actress winner) was campaigning hard on Denzel Washington'g behalf. allymayful, it's not true that he was the first black actor to win Best Actor (Sidney Poitier achieved this feat back in 1963 for LILIES OF THE FIELD), but no other black actor had won that category since, and Roberts was going around saying that she couldn't live in a world where Washington didn't have a Best Actor Oscar. (He did have one for Supporting Actor for 1989's GLORY.) www.people.com/people/article/0,,623605,00.html So, I think those two things contributed greatly to Crowe's loss. I think if he hadn't roughed up that TV executive, he still would've won albeit by a smaller margin. However, that incident lost him a lot of votes (I'm sure) and Roberts' campaign for Washington swayed more votes. Not to mention that that night Halle Berry won Best Actress, the first time a black actress had won that category and the first time in history two black actors won on the same night, plus Sidney Poitier getting his Honorary Oscar the same evening. It makes you think if the Academy was trying to make a statement, especially since Jesse Jackson et al., had been complaining recently that the Academy eschewed black actors and up to that point only 6 black actors (including Hattie McDaniel, Louis Gossett, Jr., Whoopi Goldberg, and Cuba Gooding, Jr.) had won in the Academy's then 74 years.

"For everyone who is on the down side of advantage nad relying purely on courage...it's possible." What a beautiful, beautiful thought.
