Gentle Teacher?
The subtitle of this review of The Passion of the Christ betrays its author's orientation:
I wonder if the merchants and money-changers in the temple who were at the receiving end of His whip (John2: 13-22) would have given Him such a limiting label as "gentle teacher." St. Peter certainly didn't when he affirmed Him "the Christ, the Son of the living God” (Matthew 16: 16).

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
