- 1
- 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,330
- Is there nothing more?
- 2
- 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:55,527
- A man was appointed
- to my garrison two weeks ago.
- 3
- 00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:57,280
- He's very strong with a sword.
- 4
- 00:01:57,360 --> 00:01:58,566
- Yes, good to know.
- 5
- 00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,880
- Do you have other men?
- 6
- 00:01:59,960 --> 00:02:01,041
- Of course.
- 7
- 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,200
- Nero, protector of Rome.
- 8
- 00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,880
- Let him be the center of your home.
- 9
- 00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:41,806
- Our blessed emperor, Nero, protector of Rome.
- 10
- 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,760
- Yes, it's good. For you.
- 11
- 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,880
- Strong, healthy, good teeth.
- 12
- 00:03:48,960 --> 00:03:50,371
- He will serve you well.
- 13
- 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,725
- Care for company?
- 14
- 00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:05,280
- - Look, it's Luke.
- - Who are you speaking of?
- 15
- 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,360
- Is that Luke?
- 16
- 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,441
- Praise God.
- 17
- 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:11,966
- It is Luke.
- 18
- 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,401
- Luke?
- 19
- 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:21,041
- Priscilla.
- 20
- 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,164
- - Thank you, Eubulus.
- - Of course.
- 21
- 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:24,721
- Luke.
- 22
- 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,445
- Praise God.
- 23
- 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,480
- We were beginning to be worried.
- 24
- 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,927
- I had to wait at the gates
- longer than expected,
- 25
- 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:32,760
- but here we are.
- 26
- 00:05:32,840 --> 00:05:35,082
- This place, so many people.
- 27
- 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,811
- There were so many who
- lost their homes in the fires,
- 28
- 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:42,681
- others threatened by neighbors,
- persecuted in the streets.
- 29
- 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,849
- Come. Aquila's inside.
- 30
- 00:05:47,400 --> 00:05:48,447
- Aquila.
- 31
- 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:50,201
- Aquila.
- 32
- 00:05:51,840 --> 00:05:54,720
- Luke. What a sight for these weary eyes.
- 33
- 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:56,450
- I'm glad to see you, brother.
- 34
- 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,120
- The arrangements you made
- were in perfect order.
- 35
- 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,400
- These are terrible times.
- We could take no chances.
- 36
- 00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:04,800
- I know. Your letters that reached us
- have torn the community's heart out,
- 37
- 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:06,760
- so we took up a collection.
- 38
- 00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:08,570
- It's not as much as I had hoped.
- 39
- 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,000
- Food and supplies are running low.
- 40
- 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,000
- We are most grateful for every coin.
- 41
- 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,280
- Tarquin, speak with Heroditon and Rufus
- 42
- 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:17,560
- about what is most urgently needed. Go on.
- 43
- 00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:20,120
- Tarquin? But he's so young for orders.
- 44
- 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:21,964
- He's loyal. He's a Roman boy.
- 45
- 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,040
- He lost both his parents in the fires.
- 46
- 00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:26,720
- We took him in. This is Cassius, his cousin.
- 47
- 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:28,960
- He followed when he heard
- what the community was doing.
- 48
- 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:30,690
- He was baptized soon after.
- 49
- 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:34,720
- Aquila, can everyone here be trusted?
- 50
- 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:36,120
- We trust in God.
- 51
- 00:06:36,200 --> 00:06:38,521
- Come, let's eat. You must be starving.
- 52
- 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:40,160
- Your cooking?
- 53
- 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,129
- I don't know if I'm that hungry.
- 54
- 00:06:43,040 --> 00:06:45,725
- There is a darkness over this city now that
- 55
- 00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,120
- was not present
- when Paul and I were here last.
- 56
- 00:06:49,200 --> 00:06:51,160
- Nero's cruelties have worsened.
- 57
- 00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:53,811
- He holds his circus games
- with more regularity.
- 58
- 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,244
- Men, women, children
- 59
- 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:59,840
- torn apart by wild beasts
- to the laughter of the crowd.
- 60
- 00:06:59,920 --> 00:07:01,081
- Oh, my God.
- 61
- 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,680
- Nero says the reason is
- to show the Roman people
- 62
- 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,360
- that these followers of Christ
- were responsible
- 63
- 00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:08,600
- for burning half the city to the ground.
- 64
- 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:11,650
- What of all our brothers and
- sisters that you shelter here?
- 65
- 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,640
- How much longer can you hide them?
- 66
- 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,211
- We don't know, Luke.
- 67
- 00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:17,520
- We're at a crossroads.
- 68
- 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,887
- We're not sure whether
- to continue here in faith
- 69
- 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,446
- or to move the whole community out of Rome.
- 70
- 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,280
- Priscilla...
- 71
- 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:27,602
- With such great persecution, why stay?
- 72
- 00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,651
- People are desperate.
- 73
- 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,040
- We're the only light left in this city.
- 74
- 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:33,400
- But in staying,
- 75
- 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:35,960
- we put a great deal of lives in danger.
- 76
- 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,000
- There are many families here.
- 77
- 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,970
- - Perhaps when you speak to Paul...
- - Yes.
- 78
- 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,520
- Yes, he will shed light on this.
- 79
- 00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:44,920
- He will know what to do.
- 80
- 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:46,206
- We would be grateful.
- 81
- 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:48,120
- Luke.
- 82
- 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,123
- I know you need rest,
- 83
- 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:53,410
- but there are a great many people
- here in need of a physician.
- 84
- 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:57,165
- Show me to them.
- 85
- 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:17,689
- Take this limestone, come on!
- 86
- 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:29,370
- Come on, move!
- 87
- 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:54,247
- Enough.
- 88
- 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:57,326
- Get him up.
- 89
- 00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,924
- Come on, you. Get up.
- 90
- 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:08,931
- Paul of Tarsus.
- 91
- 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,805
- The man responsible for half
- of Rome laying in ashes.
- 92
- 00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:17,571
- I expected more.
- 93
- 00:09:18,680 --> 00:09:20,410
- At least a man who could stand straight.
- 94
- 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:24,640
- I am Mauritius Gallas,
- 95
- 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:26,688
- Commander of the Third Legion of Rome.
- 96
- 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,245
- And now the new Prefect
- of the Mamertine Prison.
- 97
- 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:34,120
- "His greatness Emperor Nero
- has hereby proclaimed you
- 98
- 00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:35,880
- "a corrupter and deceiver,
- 99
- 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,406
- "and a capital charge has been
- brought upon you for treason.
- 100
- 00:09:38,560 --> 00:09:40,880
- "For this crime, the punishment is death
- 101
- 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:43,167
- "by beheading upon Emperor Nero's decree."
- 102
- 00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:46,405
- In the meantime, you'll be
- left alone in the darkness.
- 103
- 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:49,728
- Another 20 lashes for the old man.
- 104
- 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,003
- Forged Roman documents.
- 105
- 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:01,131
- Use these if you get stopped
- by guards in the city.
- 106
- 00:10:01,400 --> 00:10:03,448
- A quick glance and they'll pass,
- 107
- 00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:06,120
- but a longer look will get you killed.
- 108
- 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:07,201
- Understood.
- 109
- 00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:18,800
- That's the signal.
- 110
- 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,160
- The peace of our Lord
- be with you, my brother.
- 111
- 00:10:21,240 --> 00:10:22,401
- I'll need it.
- 112
- 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:39,486
- Just remember,
- 113
- 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,004
- you only get back out if I decide you do.
- 114
- 00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:47,449
- You are most certainly a powerful man.
- 115
- 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:18,005
- I will come back before the night watch ends.
- 116
- 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:30,646
- Hello, brother.
- 117
- 00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:34,801
- Brother.
- 118
- 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:46,846
- Luke.
- 119
- 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:49,840
- Am I dreaming?
- 120
- 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:51,567
- No.
- 121
- 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:53,480
- I'm here.
- 122
- 00:11:53,560 --> 00:11:54,925
- Praise God.
- 123
- 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,807
- - Praise God.
- - You have fresh wounds.
- 124
- 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,321
- Get up.
- 125
- 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:04,561
- Can you sit?
- 126
- 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:06,760
- Come sit.
- 127
- 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:07,921
- Yes.
- 128
- 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,887
- I did not expect to see
- your face in this life again.
- 129
- 00:12:25,880 --> 00:12:26,961
- Nor I yours.
- 130
- 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:31,201
- Getting in here must have come
- at a great price.
- 131
- 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:35,685
- Surely the money could have been put to
- better use for our brothers and sisters.
- 132
- 00:12:36,680 --> 00:12:37,841
- Perhaps.
- 133
- 00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:40,920
- But there wasn't a single vote of
- disagreement amongst the communities,
- 134
- 00:12:41,000 --> 00:12:44,288
- even the Corinthians gave generously,
- if you can believe it. Sorry.
- 135
- 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:48,291
- I am grateful.
- 136
- 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,686
- I've become an old man inside these walls.
- 137
- 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,961
- Every bone is wracked with pain.
- 138
- 00:12:58,560 --> 00:13:02,770
- My eyesight has become even weaker.
- 139
- 00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:04,765
- Quit your complaining.
- 140
- 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,171
- I have new robes
- 141
- 00:13:08,200 --> 00:13:09,531
- and fresh water to bathe.
- 142
- 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:13,483
- So you shall be a clean old man.
- 143
- 00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:16,931
- I'm glad to see you kept
- yourself busy while I was gone.
- 144
- 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:19,243
- Getting yourself arrested again,
- 145
- 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,204
- challenging Nero again,
- 146
- 00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:25,528
- and apparently finding the time
- to burn down half of Rome?
- 147
- 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,571
- Well done, old man.
- 148
- 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,720
- I received the news
- about your trial at the Forum.
- 149
- 00:13:34,280 --> 00:13:35,771
- I know you stood alone.
- 150
- 00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:38,327
- You know I would have never left your side.
- 151
- 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:40,970
- You are here now.
- 152
- 00:13:41,560 --> 00:13:42,687
- And so I am.
- 153
- 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,444
- Tell me some good news
- that I might hold onto.
- 154
- 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:49,287
- There is good news in Crete and Ephesus.
- 155
- 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:52,680
- Titus and Timothy have silenced
- the false teachers
- 156
- 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,649
- and straightened out the good doctrine.
- 157
- 00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:58,006
- And what is the news of this city?
- 158
- 00:14:01,640 --> 00:14:03,847
- Rome is stained with the blood
- of our brothers and sisters.
- 159
- 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:06,920
- Aquila and Priscilla are faced
- 160
- 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,482
- with the difficult decision
- whether to stay or to flee.
- 161
- 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:17,406
- Paul, there is much for us to discuss,
- 162
- 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,528
- but the Roman communities need...
- 163
- 00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,487
- They need wisdom at this very moment.
- 164
- 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,328
- What wisdom can I give?
- 165
- 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,491
- I have gone right, Christ has sent me left.
- 166
- 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:34,931
- I've gone left,
- 167
- 00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:37,683
- and Christ has pushed me right.
- 168
- 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,250
- I have many regrets,
- 169
- 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,763
- made many mistakes,
- but everything I have done,
- 170
- 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:50,450
- I have done for Christ.
- 171
- 00:14:58,320 --> 00:14:59,447
- Go.
- 172
- 00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,525
- I'll be back soon.
- 173
- 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:11,849
- He's physically shattered,
- 174
- 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,445
- but the cantankerous old soul
- remains full of hope and conviction.
- 175
- 00:15:18,360 --> 00:15:19,646
- It's welcome news.
- 176
- 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,771
- I've been praying that this
- solitude wouldn't crush him.
- 177
- 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:25,171
- He is not crushed,
- 178
- 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,211
- but he does struggle
- 179
- 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,042
- that his work for Christ has come to an end.
- 180
- 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:35,208
- Paul is grateful that you have
- risked your lives for this community.
- 181
- 00:15:35,400 --> 00:15:37,448
- Did he have any wisdom on the matter?
- 182
- 00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:42,480
- He is urging you to discern for
- yourselves where Christ is calling you.
- 183
- 00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,051
- No specific instructions?
- 184
- 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:46,766
- No.
- 185
- 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,521
- Only to offer an example of his own life.
- 186
- 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:01,200
- He's much better today.
- 187
- 00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:02,441
- He looks...
- 188
- 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:04,770
- Here, drink this.
- 189
- 00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:06,885
- It will help with the pain.
- 190
- 00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:13,360
- Priscilla?
- 191
- 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:14,441
- Priscilla!
- 192
- 00:16:14,920 --> 00:16:16,843
- - Priscilla!
- - I'm here. I'm here.
- 193
- 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,280
- Octavia? What's happened?
- 194
- 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,567
- I found her wandering the streets like this.
- 195
- 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,000
- Sit.
- 196
- 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:24,571
- Sit, sit, sit.
- 197
- 00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,485
- Where are you hurt?
- 198
- 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:29,406
- - Where?
- - Octavia, where are you hurt?
- 199
- 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:31,641
- Where are you...
- 200
- 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,491
- They've killed my husband.
- 201
- 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:36,530
- And my little baby boy.
- 202
- 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:38,803
- They broke down the doors!
- 203
- 00:16:39,720 --> 00:16:41,960
- We should have come here sooner.
- 204
- 00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:45,089
- You're bleeding. Where are you hurt?
- 205
- 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:46,920
- It's not my blood.
- 206
- 00:16:47,720 --> 00:16:49,051
- It's my...
- 207
- 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,329
- It's my baby's blood.
- 208
- 00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,687
- It's my baby's blood.
- 209
- 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,440
- Take her inside, out of sight
- of the others, please.
- 210
- 00:17:07,800 --> 00:17:09,962
- Come on. You're safe.
- 211
- 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:15,482
- - No, no.
- - Come. Come.
- 212
- 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,841
- They were all watching this poor woman
- 213
- 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:30,409
- covered in the blood of her family
- 214
- 00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:33,085
- that had just been slaughtered.
- 215
- 00:17:35,080 --> 00:17:37,811
- Their faces were filled with a great fear.
- 216
- 00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:42,088
- Christ has promised these
- 217
- 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:44,251
- difficult times.
- 218
- 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,761
- You know you will die here in Rome.
- 219
- 00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:52,648
- Yet you are certain of the truth.
- 220
- 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,327
- I know the one in whom I believe.
- 221
- 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,048
- And I am certain of the joy
- 222
- 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,005
- of where I go.
- 223
- 00:18:02,480 --> 00:18:05,689
- Yes, but I don't see the same
- conviction in the others, Paul.
- 224
- 00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:09,209
- These men, these women, these children.
- 225
- 00:18:11,360 --> 00:18:13,169
- I cannot fix their faith.
- 226
- 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,082
- You can inspire their faith,
- 227
- 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,330
- just as your... Your letters always have.
- 228
- 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:25,087
- You want me to write another letter?
- 229
- 00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:28,848
- It's time to get the blood flowing.
- 230
- 00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:33,251
- The Way is growing.
- 231
- 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:38,320
- There are men, women, children now that have
- never met you, that will never meet you,
- 232
- 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,324
- so there must be a handwritten
- account of these Acts.
- 233
- 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:44,560
- It is for the same reason
- that I undertook an account
- 234
- 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:47,040
- of our Lord Jesus Christ for Theophilus.
- 235
- 00:18:47,120 --> 00:18:49,566
- So that he would know the story of Christ,
- 236
- 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,850
- and now the people must know your story.
- 237
- 00:18:53,720 --> 00:18:55,848
- You risk people looking to me
- 238
- 00:18:56,600 --> 00:18:57,720
- before Christ.
- 239
- 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:58,881
- Paul.
- 240
- 00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:02,285
- No, it is your certainty
- that opens the door to Christ.
- 241
- 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:05,402
- I have never met Christ in the flesh,
- 242
- 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:08,640
- but the day I heard you preach in Troas,
- 243
- 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,041
- my God, I saw Christ in you.
- 244
- 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:15,608
- I left my family and my friends,
- my whole life behind.
- 245
- 00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:26,844
- You would write it in here?
- 246
- 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:31,924
- What did you say?
- 247
- 00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:34,960
- You would write it here?
- 248
- 00:19:35,040 --> 00:19:36,201
- Yes.
- 249
- 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:38,603
- I could smuggle the tools in here.
- 250
- 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,881
- This is not like our last visit to Rome.
- 251
- 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,048
- If you were caught with documents
- 252
- 00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:47,325
- coming from this prison,
- 253
- 00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:49,251
- it could mean certain death.
- 254
- 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:53,444
- Greek. Get up.
- 255
- 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:04,166
- Usually people try to escape this place,
- 256
- 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:06,131
- not break into it.
- 257
- 00:20:07,160 --> 00:20:09,560
- - They tell me you're a physician.
- - I am.
- 258
- 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:12,166
- You have high-ranking friends
- for a physician.
- 259
- 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:14,690
- Especially a Greek physician.
- 260
- 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:19,320
- The emperor has declared
- Christianity a forbidden cult
- 261
- 00:20:19,400 --> 00:20:21,640
- and Paul of Tarsus, the chief offender.
- 262
- 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,248
- You understand the risk is death,
- and yet you, a Greek Christian,
- 263
- 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,531
- boldly walk into a Roman prison.
- 264
- 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,682
- Boldly walk into my prison.
- 265
- 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:37,291
- My apologies...
- 266
- 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:39,367
- Prefect.
- 267
- 00:20:39,520 --> 00:20:42,520
- As you have said,
- I have high-ranking friends.
- 268
- 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,171
- I know the men that you have favor with.
- 269
- 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:47,925
- These are good men,
- 270
- 00:20:48,360 --> 00:20:50,840
- that have fought and bled
- for Rome and her gods.
- 271
- 00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:54,611
- It's the only reason I honor this request.
- 272
- 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,530
- I am grateful for it.
- 273
- 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,442
- Escort the Greek back to the streets.
- 274
- 00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:04,966
- He must, of course, still
- take his chances out there.
- 275
- 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,363
- - What are you doing here?
- - Only passing through.
- 276
- 00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:17,440
- - Of course, you are.
- - Only passing through.
- 277
- 00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:19,040
- Let's have a look at those documents.
- 278
- 00:21:19,120 --> 00:21:20,600
- I would never betray our gods. Never.
- 279
- 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:22,200
- - Oh, yeah?
- - I would never betray our gods. Never.
- 280
- 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,806
- - All right.
- - Hey, you. You, come here.
- 281
- 00:21:25,160 --> 00:21:26,241
- You, out.
- 282
- 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,131
- Show me your documents.
- 283
- 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,640
- I swear, I will... I will tell the others.
- 284
- 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:40,040
- What are you going to do about it?
- 285
- 00:21:40,120 --> 00:21:42,160
- - What? Why do you bring it up?
- - Get away from me, okay?
- 286
- 00:21:42,240 --> 00:21:43,765
- - You get away from me!
- - This is...
- 287
- 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:53,281
- Set him on fire!
- 288
- 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,331
- More oil!
- 289
- 00:21:57,000 --> 00:21:58,365
- Here's your torch.
- 290
- 00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:01,081
- Like a candle.
- 291
- 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:03,727
- You see this?
- 292
- 00:22:03,840 --> 00:22:05,080
- Burn him alive.
- 293
- 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:08,207
- - Pray unto your God now.
- - No. No.
- 294
- 00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:10,367
- Traitor.
- 295
- 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:12,644
- We want to hear you scream!
- 296
- 00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:32,167
- Aquila.
- 297
- 00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,489
- I woke up. You weren't there.
- 298
- 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:37,320
- I couldn't sleep.
- 299
- 00:22:37,840 --> 00:22:39,524
- Luke's back. He's safe.
- 300
- 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,481
- Good.
- 301
- 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:43,686
- That's good.
- 302
- 00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:51,207
- We've loved this city as our own.
- 303
- 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,003
- I only see what it's become.
- 304
- 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:57,411
- Nero's Rome.
- 305
- 00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,371
- Nero's madness.
- 306
- 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:01,327
- It'll pass.
- 307
- 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,040
- He can't be emperor forever.
- 308
- 00:23:04,120 --> 00:23:06,362
- How many more people will die before then?
- 309
- 00:23:09,120 --> 00:23:11,362
- This decision weighs heavily on me.
- 310
- 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,328
- I receive no wisdom in prayer.
- 311
- 00:23:15,400 --> 00:23:18,680
- In staying, we put the lives
- of all our brothers and sisters
- 312
- 00:23:18,760 --> 00:23:20,410
- under this roof in danger.
- 313
- 00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,565
- And if we go, how many people that rely on us
- 314
- 00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:27,602
- do we condemn to a terrible fate?
- 315
- 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:31,680
- Christ was clear when he said
- 316
- 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:33,922
- he was sending us out amongst the wolves.
- 317
- 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,721
- He also told us to be as wise as serpents.
- 318
- 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,163
- And harmless as doves.
- 319
- 00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:43,491
- As Paul has said,
- 320
- 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,451
- we must each make our own decision.
- 321
- 00:23:55,240 --> 00:23:56,571
- She loves these people.
- 322
- 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,131
- Like her children.
- 323
- 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:05,083
- And yet she still finds room in her heart
- for all of those lost in Rome.
- 324
- 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:08,407
- Something that doesn't come as easily to me.
- 325
- 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,685
- Aquila, I saw them burning
- a body this morning.
- 326
- 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:24,005
- He was a man I recognized from here.
- 327
- 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:27,251
- Someone I helped.
- 328
- 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:32,320
- I did nothing.
- 329
- 00:24:34,040 --> 00:24:36,168
- I feel no love for these Romans.
- 330
- 00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:39,161
- This evil makes no sense to me.
- 331
- 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:53,808
- We were asked to build a community...
- 332
- 00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,848
- We were asked to build a community
- in this city,
- 333
- 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,563
- to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ,
- 334
- 00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:04,729
- to love this city,
- 335
- 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:08,363
- but I can no longer see
- a clear answer for a way forward.
- 336
- 00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:10,445
- What does Paul say?
- 337
- 00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,042
- That this is something that
- 338
- 00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:18,803
- falls to each man and woman
- 339
- 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,604
- in their thoughts and prayers.
- 340
- 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:23,880
- Some of you have families, have children.
- 341
- 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,081
- I understand you want to protect them
- or feel called to stay.
- 342
- 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:33,281
- It's a risk for even one of us, Aquila,
- to try and slip in and out of the gates.
- 343
- 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:35,889
- How could we possibly all get out?
- 344
- 00:25:36,240 --> 00:25:40,006
- I have asked Eubulus to find us a way.
- 345
- 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,920
- There's an old aqueduct
- that lies beneath the new city.
- 346
- 00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:45,809
- It's been long buried and forgotten.
- 347
- 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:49,120
- The entrance to these tunnels
- lies beneath a property
- 348
- 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,170
- owned by a trio of wealthy Roman families.
- 349
- 00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:53,800
- And why would they help us?
- 350
- 00:25:53,880 --> 00:25:57,200
- Because they realize that Nero
- was responsible for burning
- 351
- 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:58,760
- half of their city to the ground.
- 352
- 00:25:58,840 --> 00:26:00,240
- They want the tyrant dead
- 353
- 00:26:00,320 --> 00:26:02,084
- and Rome returned to the people.
- 354
- 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,685
- Now, we may have favor,
- 355
- 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:07,845
- but be under no illusion,
- 356
- 00:26:08,360 --> 00:26:10,044
- this will not be an easy task.
- 357
- 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:12,960
- - And where will we go?
- - To Ephesus.
- 358
- 00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:15,400
- Timothy is there and they will welcome us.
- 359
- 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:18,000
- And the Greeks are far more tolerant of us.
- 360
- 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:20,925
- We were Romans before we were Christian.
- 361
- 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:24,571
- This is our home.
- 362
- 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:29,767
- I do not take this decision lightly.
- 363
- 00:26:30,520 --> 00:26:34,411
- But I believe that there is
- more good to be done outside of Rome.
- 364
- 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:35,966
- Aquila's right.
- 365
- 00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:39,646
- But I think there's also
- some good in staying.
- 366
- 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,247
- It's true, we've never seen Rome darker.
- 367
- 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:47,366
- But if we abandon it,
- will it not be cast into total darkness?
- 368
- 00:26:48,360 --> 00:26:50,442
- Who would have taken Tarquin in?
- 369
- 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,285
- You know what happens
- to orphans in this city.
- 370
- 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:57,560
- They're left on the streets to die.
- 371
- 00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:00,849
- Or they're forced into
- prostitution at the temples.
- 372
- 00:27:01,640 --> 00:27:03,483
- There are widows on the street corners
- 373
- 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,682
- begging for coins to feed their children.
- 374
- 00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:07,724
- If we abandon them,
- 375
- 00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:09,691
- who will feed them?
- 376
- 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:11,605
- Who will care?
- 377
- 00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:16,927
- Nero is responsible for the
- deaths in my family, not Rome.
- 378
- 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,400
- Aquila speaks of those
- that want to overthrow Nero.
- 379
- 00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:22,925
- Are these not allies of ours?
- 380
- 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:24,360
- Yes, indeed. We are allies.
- 381
- 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:28,282
- And think of the good that could be done
- once Rome is delivered from Nero's evil grip.
- 382
- 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:30,603
- There are no easy answers.
- 383
- 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:34,928
- Trust in God to lead the way.
- 384
- 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:39,449
- The most difficult part
- will be getting news to these families,
- 385
- 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:42,809
- so that they can open the tunnels
- in an area we can pass unseen.
- 386
- 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,531
- Someone will have to go
- to Palatine Hill, but it's...
- 387
- 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:46,971
- It's almost impossible.
- 388
- 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:49,481
- Nero trusts none of these people.
- He has eyes everywhere.
- 389
- 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:57,365
- I'll go.
- 390
- 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:00,281
- No, Tarquin.
- 391
- 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:05,846
- I can go. They all think
- I'm an orphan, a beggar.
- 392
- 00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:08,044
- No one will look twice.
- 393
- 00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:10,491
- I want to help.
- 394
- 00:28:20,600 --> 00:28:22,284
- Tarquin, come here.
- 395
- 00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:27,481
- Take this to our Roman friends and tell them
- that we gratefully accept their help.
- 396
- 00:28:32,200 --> 00:28:34,043
- You are a very brave boy.
- 397
- 00:28:35,120 --> 00:28:36,611
- Now, please be careful.
- 398
- 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:37,967
- Yeah?
- 399
- 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:40,681
- Go on.
- 400
- 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:50,641
- Safe journey.
- 401
- 00:28:52,560 --> 00:28:54,244
- - Bless you, son.
- - Thank you.
- 402
- 00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:57,281
- Be safe.
- 403
- 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,040
- Best of luck.
- 404
- 00:29:04,120 --> 00:29:05,724
- - Good luck.
- - Walk in peace.
- 405
- 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:10,686
- - I know you can do this.
- - Yes.
- 406
- 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:12,650
- - Be strong.
- - I will.
- 407
- 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:14,808
- - I'm proud of you. Go.
- - Thank you.
- 408
- 00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,647
- My life did not begin with hate.
- 409
- 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,406
- I don't recall the feeling as a child.
- 410
- 00:29:40,600 --> 00:29:44,491
- I always felt myself to be
- more a sheep in the midst of wolves.
- 411
- 00:29:46,080 --> 00:29:47,605
- Innocent as a dove.
- 412
- 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:54,246
- I was in the temple
- keeping true to my fasts, my prayers.
- 413
- 00:29:55,760 --> 00:29:58,002
- Stephen was out in the streets,
- 414
- 00:29:58,240 --> 00:30:00,600
- bringing charity to widows and orphans,
- 415
- 00:30:00,680 --> 00:30:02,603
- preaching truth to drunks
- 416
- 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:05,011
- and the crippled.
- 417
- 00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:09,087
- I was blameless in the ancient law of Israel,
- 418
- 00:30:09,200 --> 00:30:14,240
- while Stephen was blaspheming
- on the very holy ground of God.
- 419
- 00:30:14,560 --> 00:30:15,891
- So what did you do?
- 420
- 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:17,411
- We spread lies,
- 421
- 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:21,405
- created an uproar
- that had him brought to trial.
- 422
- 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,164
- What did he argue?
- 423
- 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,881
- That Jesus was the Messiah.
- 424
- 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,240
- And the temple of God
- was no longer the only place
- 425
- 00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:32,163
- where God could be worshiped.
- 426
- 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,525
- Blasphemy.
- 427
- 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:48,129
- I heard his final words even
- amongst the roar of the crowd.
- 428
- 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:53,607
- "Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.
- 429
- 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:57,125
- "Lord, do not hold
- this sin against them."
- 430
- 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,563
- Even in death, a final blasphemy on his lips.
- 431
- 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,960
- In that moment, I vowed to destroy
- 432
- 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:14,489
- all those that spoke of this
- Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah.
- 433
- 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,489
- Your grace is sufficient.
- 434
- 00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:53,484
- Your grace is sufficient.
- 435
- 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,849
- The wall can never be breached here. Never.
- 436
- 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,407
- - The reports from the night.
- - And the Greek?
- 437
- 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:15,570
- He came and went once more.
- 438
- 00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:18,283
- What do you know about Paul of Tarsus?
- 439
- 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:20,488
- There are plenty of rumors that circulate.
- 440
- 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,128
- A magician. A god.
- 441
- 00:33:23,960 --> 00:33:25,087
- A madman.
- 442
- 00:33:26,200 --> 00:33:29,648
- Why does that Greek care
- to visit him in that disgusting pit?
- 443
- 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,289
- He dictates something to him.
- 444
- 00:33:33,680 --> 00:33:34,681
- A letter?
- 445
- 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:37,847
- A story.
- 446
- 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:11,724
- Her condition is no better.
- 447
- 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:14,606
- She will be healed.
- 448
- 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,086
- And if not?
- 449
- 00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,566
- Saul... Saul...
- 450
- 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,051
- Saul... Saul... Saul...
- 451
- 00:34:39,200 --> 00:34:41,282
- Saul... Saul...
- 452
- 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,727
- Saul...
- 453
- 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:45,081
- Saul,
- 454
- 00:34:45,600 --> 00:34:47,762
- why do you persecute me?
- 455
- 00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:50,888
- Paul. Paul.
- 456
- 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:52,407
- Paul.
- 457
- 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:54,211
- Give me your hand.
- 458
- 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:01,606
- You were screaming out.
- 459
- 00:35:06,840 --> 00:35:09,571
- The devil sneaks in the darkness here.
- 460
- 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:12,926
- Taunts me...
- 461
- 00:35:14,400 --> 00:35:15,561
- Day and night...
- 462
- 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,848
- Reminding me of this
- terrible thorn in my flesh.
- 463
- 00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,284
- I'm haunted by myself as a child.
- 464
- 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,527
- I wish to warn him of the path he will take.
- 465
- 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:45,325
- All these years, I have had a vision of them.
- 466
- 00:35:47,720 --> 00:35:49,404
- I see them
- 467
- 00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,723
- waiting
- 468
- 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,010
- somewhere...
- 469
- 00:35:56,600 --> 00:35:58,807
- But I do not know this place.
- 470
- 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:03,323
- Its meaning has always been hidden from me.
- 471
- 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:07,960
- A torturous muse, the devil whispers
- 472
- 00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:10,691
- that they've found no peace...
- 473
- 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:14,163
- They've found no joy.
- 474
- 00:36:35,240 --> 00:36:38,323
- I was remembering
- when Caelia was a little girl.
- 475
- 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,168
- She used to sit at the window
- 476
- 00:36:43,520 --> 00:36:45,648
- and watch small sparrows
- 477
- 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,163
- sing and fly around the garden.
- 478
- 00:36:49,920 --> 00:36:52,241
- She would have been there
- all day if I'd let her.
- 479
- 00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:56,842
- Do you remember our place before the fires?
- 480
- 00:36:57,400 --> 00:36:59,448
- The light through the windows...
- 481
- 00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:02,568
- Flowers, the trees in the garden.
- 482
- 00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:07,523
- I was a noble woman.
- 483
- 00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:12,080
- The wife of a Roman hero.
- 484
- 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:13,760
- It is Nero's madness.
- 485
- 00:37:13,840 --> 00:37:16,047
- I do not blame Nero.
- 486
- 00:37:19,840 --> 00:37:22,880
- It is no help that you walk around this place
- 487
- 00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:25,167
- as if the gods have already taken her.
- 488
- 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,280
- Don't you think you anger them by acting
- like they have no power to heal?
- 489
- 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,081
- I have been sacrificing faithfully every day!
- 490
- 00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:37,001
- My conscience is clean.
- 491
- 00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:41,447
- I do not think that I'm the one
- the gods refuse to listen to.
- 492
- 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:13,640
- There he is.
- 493
- 00:38:13,720 --> 00:38:15,040
- Mauritius...
- 494
- 00:38:15,120 --> 00:38:17,760
- Your glum mood threatens
- to make this lovely lass
- 495
- 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:19,800
- more expensive than she needs to be.
- 496
- 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,770
- - Here, let me order you one. Elysius.
- - Publius.
- 497
- 00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:25,240
- Thank you, no.
- 498
- 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,651
- Run along.
- 499
- 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:34,240
- How is prison life?
- 500
- 00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,210
- You know as well as I it's a disgrace.
- 501
- 00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:41,204
- A black mark of dishonor
- on my house and family.
- 502
- 00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,800
- Twenty years of service to Rome,
- 503
- 00:38:43,880 --> 00:38:46,160
- risking my life to earn my citizenship,
- 504
- 00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:49,160
- and now forced to take idle servant's work
- 505
- 00:38:49,240 --> 00:38:52,880
- while Nero makes a mockery
- of everything Rome stands for.
- 506
- 00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:54,849
- These are the troubled times, my friend.
- 507
- 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:58,040
- But that is why the gods keep
- the day of our death a mystery,
- 508
- 00:38:58,120 --> 00:39:00,327
- so that we can enjoy this life.
- 509
- 00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:02,880
- I'm sorry.
- 510
- 00:39:02,960 --> 00:39:05,008
- Friend, how is your daughter?
- 511
- 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:07,885
- Worse by the day.
- 512
- 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,480
- I sacrifice to Bona DEA,
- but she does not reply.
- 513
- 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:14,080
- Then sacrifice to Carna or Meditrina,
- 514
- 00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:15,880
- and to Felicitas, Fortuna...
- 515
- 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,320
- Juno, Libera, Sors, Spes, Trivia.
- 516
- 00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:20,607
- There are a hundred gods that stand by.
- 517
- 00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:24,691
- Paul of Tarsus is under my watch.
- 518
- 00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,042
- The man responsible for burning down Rome?
- 519
- 00:39:28,400 --> 00:39:31,085
- He's nothing but Nero's scapegoat.
- 520
- 00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,886
- What do you really know
- about these Christians?
- 521
- 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,800
- I rarely find them in the
- establishments that I frequent.
- 522
- 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:44,684
- But I do know they have a strange affection
- for poor widows and ugly orphans.
- 523
- 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:49,440
- But if you want to know what the gods
- think of them, just take a look around.
- 524
- 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,490
- You'll see they're not even fit
- to light the streets of Rome.
- 525
- 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:55,840
- There is a Greek who slips in and out,
- 526
- 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:57,923
- transcribing letters of some sort.
- 527
- 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:00,760
- Mauritius, your mind has gone to rubbish
- 528
- 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:03,002
- in the darkness of that prison.
- 529
- 00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:05,560
- What if you were to seize these letters,
- 530
- 00:40:05,640 --> 00:40:08,120
- find something, anything,
- that relates to the crimes
- 531
- 00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:10,440
- - he's been charged of?
- - Nero does not need evidence.
- 532
- 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:12,400
- Assassination is in the air.
- 533
- 00:40:12,480 --> 00:40:15,360
- Half the city believes Nero
- started the fires himself.
- 534
- 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:17,640
- But if you were to bring him something
- 535
- 00:40:17,720 --> 00:40:20,040
- that shows that this Christian did conspire
- 536
- 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,640
- and burn down Rome, you
- would be a hero in Nero's eyes,
- 537
- 00:40:23,720 --> 00:40:25,882
- the most honored man in all Rome.
- 538
- 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:28,802
- Mauritius, think of your daughter.
- 539
- 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:30,800
- How much more would the gods listen
- 540
- 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,850
- if the emperor himself made
- a sacrifice for her?
- 541
- 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:43,807
- Is it true that he has seen the Messiah?
- 542
- 00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:45,240
- Paul, that is.
- 543
- 00:40:45,320 --> 00:40:46,731
- Where's Luke? Luke!
- 544
- 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,251
- Eubulus! Clear the table! Now!
- 545
- 00:40:51,120 --> 00:40:52,645
- Aquila.
- 546
- 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,763
- Careful. Careful. Lie him here.
- 547
- 00:40:58,240 --> 00:41:00,129
- I found him in the street.
- 548
- 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:02,520
- They said he was beaten by soldiers
- 549
- 00:41:02,600 --> 00:41:04,568
- after leaving Palatine Hill.
- 550
- 00:41:21,120 --> 00:41:22,565
- No!
- 551
- 00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:28,762
- No. No.
- 552
- 00:41:38,720 --> 00:41:41,565
- This is what trusting God gets you.
- 553
- 00:41:55,880 --> 00:41:57,760
- We must retaliate for this brutal act.
- 554
- 00:41:57,840 --> 00:42:00,360
- Many of us have only
- a short time left in this city.
- 555
- 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,920
- - We must hold strong now.
- - Hold strong?
- 556
- 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,000
- So we're like diseased dogs, then?
- 557
- 00:42:05,080 --> 00:42:08,000
- We do nothing to defend ourselves,
- 558
- 00:42:08,080 --> 00:42:10,320
- while we are chased from
- the city just to be hunted down
- 559
- 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:12,050
- - and killed.
- - Cassius!
- 560
- 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:15,082
- We understand your anger.
- 561
- 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:20,042
- Tarquin was like a son to us.
- 562
- 00:42:22,120 --> 00:42:24,088
- I should never have let him go.
- 563
- 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,240
- Why do you blame yourselves
- 564
- 00:42:26,320 --> 00:42:28,368
- and not the ones who have murdered him?
- 565
- 00:42:28,800 --> 00:42:31,246
- And who else have they taken from you?
- 566
- 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:34,845
- This woman has come to you
- covered in the blood of her child.
- 567
- 00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:36,970
- And what would you do, Cassius?
- 568
- 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,171
- Tell me. What would you do?
- 569
- 00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:43,880
- We do what they do to us.
- 570
- 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,246
- Yes.
- 571
- 00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:47,720
- Murder them in the cover of darkness!
- 572
- 00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:50,720
- - I'm with you, Cassius!
- - Set fire and burn them
- 573
- 00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:52,320
- in their homes while they sleep!
- 574
- 00:42:52,400 --> 00:42:54,400
- You speak as if your ears have never heard
- 575
- 00:42:54,480 --> 00:42:55,600
- the words of Christ.
- 576
- 00:42:55,680 --> 00:42:57,523
- You never walked with Christ!
- 577
- 00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:00,880
- How can you say he would
- say these things in the face of
- 578
- 00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:04,089
- - such an evil like Nero?
- - Quiet!
- 579
- 00:43:06,160 --> 00:43:07,764
- Be still.
- 580
- 00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:11,484
- None of us here have walked with Christ.
- 581
- 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:16,409
- But Paul has followed him longer than us all.
- 582
- 00:43:18,040 --> 00:43:19,520
- I have watched him be beaten,
- 583
- 00:43:19,600 --> 00:43:22,683
- I have watched him be stoned and flogged,
- 584
- 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,365
- and never once did he raise his finger
- against his oppressors.
- 585
- 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:31,600
- Let peace be with you,
- for we live in the world,
- 586
- 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,286
- but we do not wage war as the world does.
- 587
- 00:43:35,880 --> 00:43:37,564
- Peace begins with you, Cassius.
- 588
- 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,005
- Love is the only way.
- 589
- 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:51,845
- There was a young Roman boy, Tarquin.
- 590
- 00:43:54,520 --> 00:43:56,727
- He was killed in the streets last night.
- 591
- 00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,006
- He was beloved by the community.
- 592
- 00:44:02,360 --> 00:44:04,761
- Most of them trust the Way.
- 593
- 00:44:06,720 --> 00:44:09,530
- But he has this cousin who is...
- 594
- 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,171
- He's dividing them, Paul.
- 595
- 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,290
- This growing faction of young men that...
- 596
- 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:21,880
- They want to retaliate.
- 597
- 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:24,440
- They want revenge.
- 598
- 00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,286
- We cannot repay evil for evil.
- 599
- 00:44:30,880 --> 00:44:34,851
- Evil can only be overcome with good.
- 600
- 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:42,521
- Well, considering all they've been through,
- 601
- 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:46,128
- can you really fault their response, Paul?
- 602
- 00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:49,843
- What did you tell them?
- 603
- 00:44:50,520 --> 00:44:52,807
- Love is the only way.
- 604
- 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:57,045
- And after all you've seen,
- 605
- 00:44:58,360 --> 00:45:00,806
- you still don't believe it?
- 606
- 00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:05,407
- This isn't anything I've seen.
- 607
- 00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:08,484
- My God...
- 608
- 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:12,402
- This is a world in the grip of evil.
- 609
- 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:14,329
- This is Nero's circus.
- 610
- 00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:16,520
- It's passionate hate.
- 611
- 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:20,680
- Blood washing down the street,
- widows, orphans starving to death.
- 612
- 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:25,320
- Babies born with the slightest defect
- are disposed, dispatched, discarded.
- 613
- 00:45:25,400 --> 00:45:27,880
- This world
- 614
- 00:45:27,960 --> 00:45:30,520
- doesn't know a thing about love.
- 615
- 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:32,200
- And so you would give up
- on the world when Christ
- 616
- 00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:34,200
- - did not give up on us?
- - Why not?
- 617
- 00:45:34,280 --> 00:45:35,760
- - No!
- - Why not?
- 618
- 00:45:35,840 --> 00:45:38,002
- Love is the only way.
- 619
- 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:42,883
- Love that suffers long.
- 620
- 00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:48,248
- Love that is kind,
- 621
- 00:45:48,680 --> 00:45:51,570
- that does not envy, that is not proud.
- 622
- 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:56,440
- Love that does not dishonor,
- 623
- 00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:59,683
- that does not seek for itself.
- 624
- 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,489
- Love that is not easily angered.
- 625
- 00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:09,843
- Love that rejoices in truth.
- 626
- 00:46:14,000 --> 00:46:16,401
- Love that never delights in evil.
- 627
- 00:46:19,800 --> 00:46:22,320
- Love that protects,
- 628
- 00:46:22,400 --> 00:46:24,846
- trusts, hopes,
- 629
- 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:29,651
- endures all things.
- 630
- 00:46:33,280 --> 00:46:35,601
- That kind of love.
- 631
- 00:46:36,720 --> 00:46:38,723
- Give me your hand.
- 632
- 00:46:48,720 --> 00:46:51,121
- Do you understand?
- 633
- 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:56,927
- Then write it down.
- 634
- 00:47:02,400 --> 00:47:04,480
- I once wanted vengeance,
- 635
- 00:47:04,560 --> 00:47:07,405
- like Cassius and these young men.
- 636
- 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,849
- I know this path of destruction
- more than anyone.
- 637
- 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:18,121
- I hated those that followed Christ.
- 638
- 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:24,162
- I hunted them down like wild animals.
- 639
- 00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:31,720
- And when they fled Jerusalem,
- 640
- 00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:34,840
- I went to the temple to the chief priests,
- 641
- 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,686
- to obtain authority to go to Damascus
- 642
- 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:42,529
- and arrest all those that followed the Way.
- 643
- 00:47:43,080 --> 00:47:46,641
- I was determined to be God's hand of justice.
- 644
- 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,603
- His wrath.
- 645
- 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:55,400
- You believed what you were doing
- 646
- 00:47:55,480 --> 00:47:57,642
- was out of a love for God.
- 647
- 00:47:58,160 --> 00:47:59,730
- A blind love.
- 648
- 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:02,040
- I only knew the law.
- 649
- 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:03,520
- If water flows
- 650
- 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:05,520
- down a mountain, what besides a miracle
- 651
- 00:48:05,600 --> 00:48:07,443
- could cause it to flow back?
- 652
- 00:48:08,400 --> 00:48:10,289
- The road to Damascus was
- 653
- 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:12,960
- your miracle.
- 654
- 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:14,960
- Yes.
- 655
- 00:48:15,040 --> 00:48:17,885
- The road to Damascus.
- 656
- 00:48:19,480 --> 00:48:21,800
- Saul... Saul...
- 657
- 00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:26,124
- Why do you persecute me?
- 658
- 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:31,647
- Who are you, Lord?
- 659
- 00:48:33,840 --> 00:48:36,241
- Who are you, Lord?
- 660
- 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:38,843
- I am Jesus,
- 661
- 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:41,407
- whom you are persecuting.
- 662
- 00:48:42,600 --> 00:48:44,240
- What's going on? What happened?
- 663
- 00:48:44,320 --> 00:48:45,960
- He can't see.
- 664
- 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:47,760
- Here. Lay him here.
- 665
- 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:49,840
- Something... Something happened on the road.
- 666
- 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:51,280
- Something like a light.
- 667
- 00:48:51,360 --> 00:48:53,480
- There was a voice, a voice like...
- 668
- 00:48:53,560 --> 00:48:55,160
- Like thunder.
- 669
- 00:48:55,240 --> 00:48:58,400
- He fell to his knees,
- as if he were struck down.
- 670
- 00:48:58,480 --> 00:49:00,800
- And he was shouting out the words...
- 671
- 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:02,800
- "Who are you, Lord?"
- 672
- 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:06,200
- All the way here he has been saying aloud
- 673
- 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:09,125
- that Jesus is the Messiah.
- 674
- 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:15,000
- Saul of Tarsus,
- 675
- 00:49:15,080 --> 00:49:17,208
- can you hear me?
- 676
- 00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,482
- Ananias?
- 677
- 00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:28,643
- You know who I am?
- 678
- 00:49:32,400 --> 00:49:36,371
- The Lord showed me a vision
- that you would come to me.
- 679
- 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:41,680
- They tell me
- 680
- 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:44,160
- you have lost your mind,
- 681
- 00:49:44,240 --> 00:49:47,280
- that you haven't eaten
- or had anything to drink
- 682
- 00:49:47,360 --> 00:49:50,560
- in three days.
- 683
- 00:49:50,640 --> 00:49:53,880
- Your actions against those that follow Christ
- 684
- 00:49:53,960 --> 00:49:57,800
- and all the harm you have done
- 685
- 00:49:57,880 --> 00:50:00,760
- is well reported.
- 686
- 00:50:00,840 --> 00:50:05,320
- I know you have come here on
- authority of the chief priests
- 687
- 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:09,405
- to arrest all those
- who call on the Lord's name.
- 688
- 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:19,920
- I am a wretched man.
- 689
- 00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:22,401
- I deserve death.
- 690
- 00:50:27,480 --> 00:50:28,845
- Yes.
- 691
- 00:50:29,640 --> 00:50:31,210
- We all do.
- 692
- 00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:36,084
- Yet,
- 693
- 00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:39,524
- Christ
- 694
- 00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,329
- has set us free.
- 695
- 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:49,250
- Brother Saul,
- 696
- 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,043
- the Lord Jesus,
- 697
- 00:50:53,240 --> 00:50:56,608
- who appeared to you on the road
- as you were coming here,
- 698
- 00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:02,760
- has sent me so that you may see again
- 699
- 00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:04,729
- and be filled
- 700
- 00:51:06,120 --> 00:51:08,407
- with the Holy Spirit.
- 701
- 00:51:11,000 --> 00:51:13,162
- Brother Saul,
- 702
- 00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,841
- receive thy sight.
- 703
- 00:52:05,240 --> 00:52:08,680
- Everything in your life changed,
- 704
- 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:10,922
- yet you continued on.
- 705
- 00:52:12,240 --> 00:52:14,811
- Three years in Arabia.
- 706
- 00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:18,291
- Why?
- 707
- 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:25,165
- Peter and the others spent
- three years with Christ.
- 708
- 00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:27,929
- I had to do the same.
- 709
- 00:52:29,720 --> 00:52:32,920
- I had to learn how to pray,
- 710
- 00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:34,730
- how to speak.
- 711
- 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:39,922
- How to love.
- 712
- 00:52:41,080 --> 00:52:42,571
- All right, old man.
- 713
- 00:52:44,240 --> 00:52:46,322
- Tell me everything that followed.
- 714
- 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:54,609
- Prisoner, on your feet.
- 715
- 00:52:54,840 --> 00:52:56,570
- The Greek, too.
- 716
- 00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:02,246
- Sir.
- 717
- 00:53:10,440 --> 00:53:11,931
- A chair, perhaps?
- 718
- 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:13,804
- I will stand.
- 719
- 00:53:14,320 --> 00:53:19,808
- I recognize the way you stand, like
- a man who has been flogged repeatedly.
- 720
- 00:53:21,800 --> 00:53:24,406
- They say the spine bends
- and does not heal properly.
- 721
- 00:53:26,440 --> 00:53:27,487
- Am I correct?
- 722
- 00:53:28,160 --> 00:53:29,400
- You are correct.
- 723
- 00:53:30,400 --> 00:53:32,960
- I am sure you are aware
- of the responsibility I have
- 724
- 00:53:33,040 --> 00:53:35,930
- for the detainment of
- every prisoner in this place.
- 725
- 00:53:36,240 --> 00:53:41,883
- I am well aware that to lose a prisoner
- means death for you and your men.
- 726
- 00:53:42,560 --> 00:53:43,721
- Exactly.
- 727
- 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,360
- Then you understand my current concern.
- 728
- 00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,808
- Prefect, do you think
- that we are plotting an escape?
- 729
- 00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:55,240
- Well, a man who has been
- charged with burning down Rome
- 730
- 00:53:55,320 --> 00:53:58,210
- meets in secret with a Greek
- for all hours of the night.
- 731
- 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:02,280
- Perhaps you're not only plotting
- an escape, but an uprising.
- 732
- 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,407
- - For what purpose?
- - Vengeance.
- 733
- 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:11,200
- Followers of your cult are being beaten,
- raped and killed for sport.
- 734
- 00:54:11,280 --> 00:54:15,410
- It is for the Lord's sake
- that we face death all day,
- 735
- 00:54:16,600 --> 00:54:19,922
- that we are considered
- as sheep to be slaughtered.
- 736
- 00:54:22,560 --> 00:54:26,451
- Even the sheep will revolt
- if whipped hard enough.
- 737
- 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,727
- Do you think that I have
- come to Rome against my will?
- 738
- 00:54:32,880 --> 00:54:35,804
- That I am in this cell by accident?
- 739
- 00:54:37,160 --> 00:54:40,562
- I care very little about the
- circumstances of your arrival.
- 740
- 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:42,689
- I am concerned with these documents
- 741
- 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:47,522
- that are being generated
- in the very heart of my prison.
- 742
- 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:51,290
- So, depending on my finding,
- I will determine what should be done.
- 743
- 00:54:51,440 --> 00:54:54,762
- Consider the Greek a threat
- to Rome until proven otherwise.
- 744
- 00:54:55,040 --> 00:54:57,566
- Put him in the dark with the preacher.
- 745
- 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:12,804
- She's not improving.
- 746
- 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:14,400
- Whatever the cost, I'd pay for it.
- 747
- 00:55:14,480 --> 00:55:16,080
- It's not an issue of cost.
- 748
- 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,003
- It's an issue of whatever this illness is.
- 749
- 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,920
- I have never seen anything like this before.
- 750
- 00:55:22,000 --> 00:55:23,411
- Please.
- 751
- 00:55:47,880 --> 00:55:49,640
- - I understand your pain, Cassius.
- - Understand?
- 752
- 00:55:49,720 --> 00:55:51,360
- - Don't say you understand.
- - But Christ spoke of love
- 753
- 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:52,840
- - and peace and patience.
- - You understand nothing.
- 754
- 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:54,047
- - You respond in the flesh.
- - People are dying
- 755
- 00:55:54,160 --> 00:55:55,560
- every day because of us.
- 756
- 00:55:55,640 --> 00:55:57,240
- I've lost my whole family!
- 757
- 00:55:57,320 --> 00:55:59,320
- - Family? You speak of family?
- - Yes. My family.
- 758
- 00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:02,560
- You listen to me! I still have my family,
- and I will not put their lives at risk
- 759
- 00:56:02,640 --> 00:56:03,960
- - for a foolish plan!
- - You coward!
- 760
- 00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:05,320
- Just think of your family!
- 761
- 00:56:05,400 --> 00:56:07,560
- - No! No! No!
- - What would you do, then?
- 762
- 00:56:07,640 --> 00:56:09,000
- No! Keep your voice down!
- 763
- 00:56:09,080 --> 00:56:10,880
- Luke has been thrown into prison.
- 764
- 00:56:10,960 --> 00:56:12,160
- - What?
- - On conspiracy.
- 765
- 00:56:12,240 --> 00:56:13,400
- What did you say?
- 766
- 00:56:13,480 --> 00:56:16,086
- Luke has been thrown into prison.
- 767
- 00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:19,920
- And I've gathered men willing to storm
- that prison and free them.
- 768
- 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:22,200
- - To what end, Cassius?
- - Justice.
- 769
- 00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:24,283
- Justice?
- 770
- 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:26,520
- Think of how foolish
- Nero will look having lost the man
- 771
- 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:29,331
- - he accused of burning down Rome.
- - No.
- 772
- 00:56:29,640 --> 00:56:31,680
- If you're caught,
- they'll come here for us all.
- 773
- 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:33,200
- - Listen to me. Please.
- - Exactly.
- 774
- 00:56:33,280 --> 00:56:36,240
- Listen to me! We can align ourselves
- 775
- 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:40,245
- with these powerful families
- to overthrow Nero.
- 776
- 00:56:40,640 --> 00:56:43,280
- And we can bring peace to Rome if we rule it.
- 777
- 00:56:43,360 --> 00:56:46,887
- Christ asked us to care
- for the world, not rule it.
- 778
- 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:49,120
- Listen closely.
- 779
- 00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:52,648
- All of you, listen to me closely.
- 780
- 00:56:54,520 --> 00:56:57,205
- Some of you may want to stay in the city...
- 781
- 00:56:57,360 --> 00:56:59,886
- And some of you may want to leave.
- 782
- 00:57:00,560 --> 00:57:02,642
- But if any of you...
- 783
- 00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:05,800
- Any of you take up arms,
- 784
- 00:57:05,880 --> 00:57:08,884
- you have no place in this community.
- 785
- 00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:21,289
- Cassius and the others
- have finally calmed down.
- 786
- 00:57:22,640 --> 00:57:25,644
- I can't stop thinking about Tarquin.
- 787
- 00:57:28,480 --> 00:57:30,210
- The poor boy.
- 788
- 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:34,206
- We sent him out there, Aquila.
- 789
- 00:57:35,960 --> 00:57:38,088
- I know. I blame myself.
- 790
- 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,442
- I should have taken it.
- 791
- 00:57:42,600 --> 00:57:44,560
- We've lost so many, Priscilla.
- 792
- 00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:47,450
- I can't bear the thought of losing any more.
- 793
- 00:57:48,360 --> 00:57:51,520
- I believe it's time to leave Rome
- with the knowledge that we could be
- 794
- 00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:54,251
- better protected and serve elsewhere.
- 795
- 00:57:56,440 --> 00:57:59,205
- I pray that God works good through it.
- 796
- 00:58:02,360 --> 00:58:04,647
- And I pray that you'll forgive me,
- 797
- 00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:10,686
- because I believe that God is
- calling us to different paths.
- 798
- 00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:16,920
- I know, I know...
- 799
- 00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,810
- I know you love this city, its people.
- 800
- 00:58:21,960 --> 00:58:24,611
- That's part of you. I understand.
- 801
- 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,641
- I give you my blessing.
- 802
- 00:58:42,760 --> 00:58:44,603
- I must say...
- 803
- 00:58:45,320 --> 00:58:47,720
- I preferred the visits
- to that charming rented villa
- 804
- 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:50,440
- the last time you were imprisoned in Rome
- 805
- 00:58:50,520 --> 00:58:52,284
- instead of this lovely hellhole.
- 806
- 00:58:56,000 --> 00:58:58,207
- Do you ever miss the road?
- 807
- 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:01,890
- You must be kidding.
- 808
- 00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:06,882
- You know I had a great life before I met you.
- 809
- 00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:10,400
- Your unwavering commitment
- 810
- 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:14,400
- kept me going on many
- of those cold, miserable nights
- 811
- 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:16,240
- in the wilderness,
- 812
- 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:18,600
- bellies rumbling,
- 813
- 00:59:18,680 --> 00:59:21,081
- feet and back in terrible pain.
- 814
- 00:59:27,120 --> 00:59:30,807
- You used to sing those awful songs
- in the middle of the night.
- 815
- 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:33,528
- Excuse me, but they were from my childhood,
- 816
- 00:59:33,720 --> 00:59:37,964
- and I told you time and again, it's the
- only thing that puts me to sleep.
- 817
- 00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:41,769
- Your pitch sounded even higher
- than Timothy's mother.
- 818
- 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:43,484
- We never met.
- 819
- 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,410
- Was she that good of a singer as well?
- 820
- 00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:49,240
- And Peter's snoring.
- 821
- 00:59:49,320 --> 00:59:52,688
- - We won't miss that.
- - We won't miss that.
- 822
- 00:59:57,880 --> 00:59:59,450
- They truly were
- 823
- 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:02,366
- miserable days being with you.
- 824
- 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:06,809
- I do miss them.
- 825
- 01:00:12,600 --> 01:00:15,040
- Praise God that he put you
- into my life, brother.
- 826
- 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:18,169
- I don't know where I'd be without you.
- 827
- 01:00:19,080 --> 01:00:21,680
- Well, from malaria to blood loss,
- 828
- 01:00:21,760 --> 01:00:24,286
- you would be most certainly dead.
- 829
- 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,047
- Luke, no.
- 830
- 01:00:43,680 --> 01:00:45,728
- It's quite boring.
- 831
- 01:00:47,120 --> 01:00:51,444
- Just a man walking around
- giving very lengthy speeches.
- 832
- 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:57,091
- The only exciting bit is
- the stoning of this fellow.
- 833
- 01:00:57,640 --> 01:00:59,643
- Mauritius...
- 834
- 01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:03,003
- I have heard outrageous rumors
- about this man.
- 835
- 01:01:04,040 --> 01:01:06,840
- A sorcerer of the dark arts,
- 836
- 01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:08,920
- a charmer of snakes and demons,
- 837
- 01:01:09,000 --> 01:01:11,080
- a man capable of healing the crippled
- 838
- 01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:13,128
- with just a touch of his cloak.
- 839
- 01:01:14,040 --> 01:01:15,520
- A healer?
- 840
- 01:01:15,600 --> 01:01:17,760
- No, my point, you don't make
- a man your leader
- 841
- 01:01:17,840 --> 01:01:22,840
- just because he trips and falls in the road
- and then travels around a bit and
- 842
- 01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:24,840
- says a few things.
- 843
- 01:01:24,920 --> 01:01:27,400
- There must be more to the story.
- 844
- 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:33,684
- You need to get him to confess something.
- 845
- 01:01:35,080 --> 01:01:38,289
- What else would he say that he
- hasn't already spoken at his trial?
- 846
- 01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:42,040
- A man on trial will say whatever
- he can to save his hide.
- 847
- 01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:45,800
- But he has been convicted.
- He will be executed.
- 848
- 01:01:45,880 --> 01:01:48,200
- No man wants to leave this life
- without a legacy,
- 849
- 01:01:48,280 --> 01:01:51,409
- without boasting of his own glorious deeds
- 850
- 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,091
- so the world can remember him forever.
- 851
- 01:01:54,800 --> 01:01:57,406
- Appeal to his arrogance.
- 852
- 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:00,205
- Perhaps.
- 853
- 01:02:03,840 --> 01:02:06,491
- I come here to find some peace.
- 854
- 01:02:07,560 --> 01:02:09,802
- You cannot see any of Rome.
- 855
- 01:02:10,800 --> 01:02:13,610
- You cannot see what has become
- of this great city.
- 856
- 01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:20,123
- I misjudged you.
- 857
- 01:02:21,440 --> 01:02:23,841
- You are much more of a soldier
- than a preacher.
- 858
- 01:02:25,480 --> 01:02:27,722
- A man with a great deal
- of blood on his hands.
- 859
- 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,163
- Sins of a past life,
- 860
- 01:02:30,600 --> 01:02:32,648
- by God's grace washed away.
- 861
- 01:02:33,000 --> 01:02:35,003
- Sin, grace, mercy.
- 862
- 01:02:38,040 --> 01:02:40,247
- Your philosophical scribblings
- tell me nothing
- 863
- 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:43,842
- about why the Christians look
- to you as their leader
- 864
- 01:02:44,320 --> 01:02:48,400
- and why Nero singled you out
- as the chief enemy of Rome.
- 865
- 01:02:48,480 --> 01:02:51,245
- I think you already know the truth,
- 866
- 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,884
- that we were not responsible for the fires.
- 867
- 01:02:55,600 --> 01:02:59,040
- Why does Nero bring this accusation upon you?
- 868
- 01:02:59,120 --> 01:03:02,442
- Rumors abound in the streets
- about your powers.
- 869
- 01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:05,240
- Perhaps it is these supernatural things
- 870
- 01:03:05,320 --> 01:03:08,051
- that are seen as such a threat by Nero.
- 871
- 01:03:09,440 --> 01:03:11,040
- I have no powers.
- 872
- 01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:13,040
- Then the stories are not true?
- 873
- 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:15,407
- They are all true.
- 874
- 01:03:16,800 --> 01:03:20,487
- So why do your people boast
- about your powers?
- 875
- 01:03:21,320 --> 01:03:24,608
- I've never said these things
- in my life to boast.
- 876
- 01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,282
- I boast only of my weaknesses,
- 877
- 01:03:27,760 --> 01:03:30,730
- so that God's power may rest on me.
- 878
- 01:03:36,200 --> 01:03:38,200
- Very few men admit weakness.
- 879
- 01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:40,408
- Certainly none boast of it.
- 880
- 01:03:41,480 --> 01:03:43,847
- I boast of it gladly,
- 881
- 01:03:44,560 --> 01:03:46,642
- for this power is sown in weakness.
- 882
- 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:49,960
- I assume you have earned riches.
- 883
- 01:03:50,040 --> 01:03:51,201
- Land.
- 884
- 01:03:51,440 --> 01:03:54,330
- Influence amongst your people.
- 885
- 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:58,322
- Maybe it is what has roused Nero's jealousy.
- 886
- 01:03:58,800 --> 01:04:01,760
- I've never taken a single coin
- for my work for Christ.
- 887
- 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:03,126
- Really?
- 888
- 01:04:04,200 --> 01:04:06,440
- The good news of salvation is free.
- 889
- 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:08,682
- It was given to me freely,
- 890
- 01:04:09,120 --> 01:04:11,600
- and I give it away for free.
- 891
- 01:04:12,200 --> 01:04:13,880
- So you have certain powers,
- 892
- 01:04:13,960 --> 01:04:16,850
- but claim to have no authority to use them.
- 893
- 01:04:17,440 --> 01:04:20,762
- You've done miraculous things,
- yet do not boast for glory.
- 894
- 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:23,810
- You make no wages for your work.
- 895
- 01:04:24,480 --> 01:04:27,120
- You're sounding less like
- a leader and more like a slave.
- 896
- 01:04:27,200 --> 01:04:29,806
- A slave that has been set free.
- 897
- 01:04:30,040 --> 01:04:32,805
- We're Romans. We're already free men.
- 898
- 01:04:34,000 --> 01:04:36,845
- All men are a slave to something.
- 899
- 01:04:45,040 --> 01:04:46,371
- That Greek,
- 900
- 01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:49,760
- he is risking his life for you.
- 901
- 01:04:49,840 --> 01:04:51,126
- Why?
- 902
- 01:04:52,200 --> 01:04:56,444
- He believes people should know
- the certainties of my life.
- 903
- 01:05:04,680 --> 01:05:06,728
- My daughter is sick.
- 904
- 01:05:08,480 --> 01:05:12,485
- If I pray to your Christ,
- your God, will she be healed?
- 905
- 01:05:13,760 --> 01:05:15,524
- I don't know.
- 906
- 01:05:16,360 --> 01:05:18,080
- His ways are not my ways.
- 907
- 01:05:18,160 --> 01:05:20,606
- So you offer nothing.
- 908
- 01:05:20,840 --> 01:05:24,731
- I offer the truth of salvation
- that has been set on my heart.
- 909
- 01:05:26,440 --> 01:05:29,364
- The Greek can take his papers.
- I see no value in them.
- 910
- 01:05:30,040 --> 01:05:31,560
- He'll be released tomorrow.
- 911
- 01:05:31,640 --> 01:05:32,880
- Prefect Mauritius.
- 912
- 01:05:34,280 --> 01:05:36,647
- The Greek, Luke,
- 913
- 01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:40,047
- he is a great physician.
- 914
- 01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:43,207
- His talents are unmatched.
- 915
- 01:05:46,920 --> 01:05:48,490
- No.
- 916
- 01:05:50,520 --> 01:05:54,445
- I would not anger the gods
- by bringing a Christian into my home.
- 917
- 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:08,483
- I said that you could help his daughter.
- 918
- 01:06:11,600 --> 01:06:14,729
- How could I bring healing when he
- and Rome bring so much suffering?
- 919
- 01:06:16,840 --> 01:06:19,605
- You know this man even better than I do.
- 920
- 01:06:19,920 --> 01:06:21,365
- You
- 921
- 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:24,240
- used to pray to the gods of Greece,
- 922
- 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,721
- just as he does the gods of Rome.
- 923
- 01:06:28,600 --> 01:06:31,200
- In your account of the Lord,
- why did you write so often
- 924
- 01:06:31,280 --> 01:06:33,248
- of the poor
- 925
- 01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:36,850
- and the outcasts and foreigners?
- 926
- 01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:46,166
- I guess I wanted others to understand
- 927
- 01:06:47,800 --> 01:06:51,040
- God's kingdom is open to us all,
- 928
- 01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:53,851
- that his mercy is for everyone.
- 929
- 01:06:54,640 --> 01:06:56,131
- Exactly.
- 930
- 01:06:56,720 --> 01:06:59,610
- We can never forget
- what it was like to be lost.
- 931
- 01:07:00,280 --> 01:07:01,930
- And to be found.
- 932
- 01:07:02,360 --> 01:07:04,203
- Do not worry, brother.
- 933
- 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:06,970
- When the moment comes,
- 934
- 01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:10,010
- you will have the strength
- to do what is right.
- 935
- 01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:15,287
- Where sin abounds,
- 936
- 01:07:15,760 --> 01:07:18,491
- grace abounds more.
- 937
- 01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:42,964
- - There's nothing more I can do.
- - How is that possible?
- 938
- 01:07:43,560 --> 01:07:46,609
- I have spoken with others.
- No one has answers.
- 939
- 01:07:47,080 --> 01:07:50,129
- And she's not responding
- to anything I have tried.
- 940
- 01:07:50,520 --> 01:07:52,240
- I have no more ideas.
- 941
- 01:07:52,320 --> 01:07:54,004
- Think of something else.
- 942
- 01:07:56,600 --> 01:07:58,170
- Make another sacrifice.
- 943
- 01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:00,847
- Plead to the gods for her life.
- 944
- 01:08:01,320 --> 01:08:04,483
- Take heed, Mauritius, you are a good man.
- 945
- 01:08:06,000 --> 01:08:09,004
- The gods can still hear you and heal her.
- 946
- 01:08:42,680 --> 01:08:44,569
- You missed the doctor.
- 947
- 01:08:47,560 --> 01:08:50,920
- You have been telling me
- to get out for fresh air,
- 948
- 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:52,764
- so I... So I got out.
- 949
- 01:08:53,920 --> 01:08:55,809
- There is nothing else he can do.
- 950
- 01:08:58,120 --> 01:08:59,724
- I had no doubt.
- 951
- 01:09:02,520 --> 01:09:03,885
- We should not speak here.
- 952
- 01:09:05,320 --> 01:09:08,210
- Do you fear that which the gods
- might hear you speak?
- 953
- 01:09:10,720 --> 01:09:13,849
- And here you accuse me of angering the gods,
- 954
- 01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:15,451
- but what of you?
- 955
- 01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,165
- There is gossip amongst
- the wives of the guards
- 956
- 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:22,400
- that you treat this man of Tarsus,
- 957
- 01:09:22,480 --> 01:09:26,040
- who spits in the face of Rome,
- with a degree of sympathy.
- 958
- 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:28,487
- He's a Roman citizen.
- 959
- 01:09:29,560 --> 01:09:32,370
- If there is any degree of kindness,
- it's because of that.
- 960
- 01:09:32,480 --> 01:09:36,480
- What kindness is harboring a Greek Christian
- 961
- 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:39,960
- against a direct order of your emperor?
- 962
- 01:09:40,040 --> 01:09:43,280
- You should be tried
- and executed for conspiracy.
- 963
- 01:09:43,360 --> 01:09:46,808
- And yet you think that I anger the gods!
- 964
- 01:09:47,680 --> 01:09:50,600
- I harbor the Greek, because
- the husbands of these gossips
- 965
- 01:09:50,680 --> 01:09:52,440
- were paid to look after him.
- 966
- 01:09:52,520 --> 01:09:54,440
- Your daughter is dying,
- 967
- 01:09:54,520 --> 01:09:57,490
- and you dare dishonor the gods
- by your actions?
- 968
- 01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:01,727
- All these years, I have been loyal to you.
- 969
- 01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:03,810
- While you were gone!
- 970
- 01:10:04,320 --> 01:10:06,562
- While you were away on your campaigns.
- 971
- 01:10:06,680 --> 01:10:09,286
- You don't think I was lonely?
- 972
- 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:14,208
- You don't think I was starved of affection?
- 973
- 01:10:15,760 --> 01:10:17,000
- I had nothing.
- 974
- 01:10:17,800 --> 01:10:19,530
- Nothing!
- 975
- 01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:21,928
- And then she was born...
- 976
- 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:25,286
- That precious baby girl.
- 977
- 01:10:28,760 --> 01:10:30,200
- And she was my...
- 978
- 01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,123
- My joy.
- 979
- 01:10:34,320 --> 01:10:37,483
- She was my life while you were gone.
- 980
- 01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:41,440
- But now you threaten to take away my joy,
- 981
- 01:10:41,520 --> 01:10:46,208
- my life away from me, because you refuse
- to look at your own selfish ways!
- 982
- 01:10:46,720 --> 01:10:49,929
- - This is not my fault.
- - It is all your fault!
- 983
- 01:10:50,240 --> 01:10:52,880
- By witness to all the gods,
- I say that her death
- 984
- 01:10:52,960 --> 01:10:55,691
- - will be on your head.
- - Enough!
- 985
- 01:10:57,800 --> 01:10:59,689
- Do it.
- 986
- 01:11:00,120 --> 01:11:02,965
- Save me the trouble for when she dies.
- 987
- 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:06,529
- Halt!
- 988
- 01:12:12,800 --> 01:12:16,202
- This way. Quickly. Down the corridor. Go!
- 989
- 01:12:19,320 --> 01:12:20,924
- Please! I beg of you!
- 990
- 01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:22,640
- Free us!
- 991
- 01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:24,450
- Brothers, save us!
- 992
- 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:31,361
- Down here!
- 993
- 01:12:34,200 --> 01:12:35,725
- Quickly. We've come to release you.
- 994
- 01:12:36,840 --> 01:12:37,921
- Who sent you?
- 995
- 01:12:38,040 --> 01:12:39,440
- We come in the name of Christ.
- 996
- 01:12:39,520 --> 01:12:43,280
- You bring violence against government
- officials in the name of Christ?
- 997
- 01:12:43,360 --> 01:12:47,440
- The moment arises to overthrow this
- cursed power and return it to the people.
- 998
- 01:12:47,520 --> 01:12:50,080
- By whose authority
- do you think Rome has power?
- 999
- 01:12:50,160 --> 01:12:51,446
- You will die here.
- 1000
- 01:12:52,360 --> 01:12:53,960
- And your cause will die with you.
- 1001
- 01:12:54,040 --> 01:12:57,965
- Christ has already triumphed
- over every enemy by the cross.
- 1002
- 01:12:58,560 --> 01:13:00,688
- You say you come in his name,
- 1003
- 01:13:01,280 --> 01:13:03,760
- but it is clear you do not know him.
- 1004
- 01:13:03,840 --> 01:13:06,241
- Cassius, we have to go. Now.
- 1005
- 01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:07,681
- Fools.
- 1006
- 01:13:34,720 --> 01:13:36,723
- - Check the prisoners.
- - Yes, sir.
- 1007
- 01:13:47,200 --> 01:13:50,204
- So, this is how my kindness is repaid?
- 1008
- 01:13:52,480 --> 01:13:54,608
- My prison broken into.
- 1009
- 01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:58,649
- My guards killed.
- 1010
- 01:13:59,480 --> 01:14:03,968
- There will always be those that try
- and take justice into their own hands.
- 1011
- 01:14:04,320 --> 01:14:06,482
- You do not take any responsibility?
- 1012
- 01:14:07,040 --> 01:14:08,485
- If we were responsible,
- 1013
- 01:14:08,920 --> 01:14:12,083
- wouldn't you be in that cell
- awaiting your own execution?
- 1014
- 01:14:13,320 --> 01:14:16,005
- How can it be that by words alone,
- 1015
- 01:14:17,080 --> 01:14:19,367
- you spit in the face of the Emperor?
- 1016
- 01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:22,809
- By words alone, you seem to defy Rome itself.
- 1017
- 01:14:23,840 --> 01:14:26,844
- Words do not threaten to destroy empires.
- 1018
- 01:14:27,880 --> 01:14:31,009
- Because perhaps they are not just words,
- 1019
- 01:14:31,600 --> 01:14:33,728
- they are the truth of things.
- 1020
- 01:14:33,960 --> 01:14:37,328
- You keep saying "truth." "Truth."
- 1021
- 01:14:38,440 --> 01:14:41,011
- But it's only a truth according to you.
- 1022
- 01:14:41,400 --> 01:14:45,000
- If it were the only truth,
- everyone would believe it.
- 1023
- 01:14:45,080 --> 01:14:46,320
- Not so.
- 1024
- 01:14:47,240 --> 01:14:49,160
- Christ, who is truth, rose from the dead.
- 1025
- 01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:51,129
- Many still do not believe.
- 1026
- 01:14:51,440 --> 01:14:52,680
- Lies. Fabrications.
- 1027
- 01:14:52,800 --> 01:14:58,000
- If Christ had not risen from the dead,
- then our preaching is useless,
- 1028
- 01:14:58,080 --> 01:14:59,810
- and so is our faith.
- 1029
- 01:15:02,200 --> 01:15:03,850
- And you have no doubts at all?
- 1030
- 01:15:05,880 --> 01:15:08,451
- Men do not die for things they doubt.
- 1031
- 01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:14,162
- You claim you serve a god
- who is above all other gods,
- 1032
- 01:15:14,280 --> 01:15:17,284
- and yet all I see before me
- is an old man in chains.
- 1033
- 01:15:19,720 --> 01:15:24,726
- Your life, a summary of beatings
- and filthy prison cells.
- 1034
- 01:15:26,000 --> 01:15:28,970
- I deserve worse, but...
- 1035
- 01:15:29,960 --> 01:15:33,043
- There is grace enough for everyone.
- 1036
- 01:15:33,400 --> 01:15:34,925
- To be rich,
- 1037
- 01:15:35,560 --> 01:15:36,925
- not poor.
- 1038
- 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:39,924
- To be powerful,
- 1039
- 01:15:40,320 --> 01:15:41,526
- not weak.
- 1040
- 01:15:41,720 --> 01:15:43,760
- To have slaves and servants, not be one.
- 1041
- 01:15:43,840 --> 01:15:45,320
- It does not take an intelligent man
- 1042
- 01:15:45,400 --> 01:15:48,768
- to look around and know that
- the world is missing something.
- 1043
- 01:15:48,920 --> 01:15:50,923
- Do not question the greatness of Rome.
- 1044
- 01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:53,080
- And what of the love for a sick daughter?
- 1045
- 01:15:53,160 --> 01:15:54,241
- What does Rome offer her?
- 1046
- 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:00,240
- Another word and I send you
- to whatever god you want.
- 1047
- 01:16:10,280 --> 01:16:13,250
- You're right, my daughter is dying.
- 1048
- 01:16:14,600 --> 01:16:17,888
- The gods do not answer me.
- 1049
- 01:16:18,960 --> 01:16:20,849
- There is another way.
- 1050
- 01:16:23,480 --> 01:16:25,881
- No. There is not.
- 1051
- 01:16:26,720 --> 01:16:28,404
- Your Christ solves nothing.
- 1052
- 01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:31,040
- Mindless sentimentality
- for the weakest and poorest
- 1053
- 01:16:31,120 --> 01:16:33,282
- to make their pathetic state livable
- 1054
- 01:16:34,480 --> 01:16:37,723
- until they are buried
- in the ground and forgotten.
- 1055
- 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:40,005
- Tomorrow there are games at the circus.
- 1056
- 01:16:41,320 --> 01:16:42,765
- Take the Greek there,
- 1057
- 01:16:43,240 --> 01:16:46,289
- - so he can die for the glory of my gods!
- - No!
- 1058
- 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:48,600
- And may this give me favor for my daughter.
- 1059
- 01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:49,720
- No!
- 1060
- 01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:51,530
- Luke. Luke!
- 1061
- 01:16:52,360 --> 01:16:55,045
- You should have escaped
- when you had the chance!
- 1062
- 01:16:58,360 --> 01:17:02,365
- And show the man from Tarsus
- how Rome treats its enemies.
- 1063
- 01:17:32,640 --> 01:17:35,644
- Help us finish the race, Father.
- 1064
- 01:17:49,720 --> 01:17:52,087
- Cassius and the others have disappeared.
- 1065
- 01:17:53,120 --> 01:17:54,770
- The city is on alert.
- 1066
- 01:17:55,680 --> 01:17:57,489
- How could they do this?
- 1067
- 01:17:58,280 --> 01:18:00,362
- They're putting everyone at risk.
- 1068
- 01:18:01,080 --> 01:18:05,005
- Confused, selfish young men
- with their own ambitions.
- 1069
- 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:08,411
- I would not expect them to return.
- 1070
- 01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:15,282
- But Luke will die in the morning
- 1071
- 01:18:17,120 --> 01:18:19,407
- along with our brothers and sisters.
- 1072
- 01:18:22,680 --> 01:18:24,808
- I only wanted to help this city.
- 1073
- 01:18:25,520 --> 01:18:28,763
- Now there's nothing but
- the stench of death around us.
- 1074
- 01:18:32,040 --> 01:18:34,611
- How many more would have died
- without you here?
- 1075
- 01:18:37,880 --> 01:18:42,647
- My heart breaks for Rome.
- 1076
- 01:18:45,120 --> 01:18:49,125
- I know I can't help everyone,
- but Christ has asked us to try.
- 1077
- 01:18:52,400 --> 01:18:54,562
- I do want to stay here.
- 1078
- 01:18:57,960 --> 01:18:59,963
- But we're stronger together.
- 1079
- 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:25,125
- I know you.
- 1080
- 01:19:26,120 --> 01:19:28,202
- You're the one traveled with Paul.
- 1081
- 01:19:28,800 --> 01:19:31,121
- Luke, the physician.
- 1082
- 01:19:33,440 --> 01:19:34,567
- I am.
- 1083
- 01:19:35,640 --> 01:19:37,722
- Do you know what will happen to us?
- 1084
- 01:19:38,680 --> 01:19:40,683
- They tell us nothing in here.
- 1085
- 01:19:51,480 --> 01:19:52,766
- There will be games tomorrow.
- 1086
- 01:19:57,640 --> 01:20:00,041
- Everyone, gather around.
- 1087
- 01:20:00,440 --> 01:20:02,761
- - Gather around.
- - Come. Come.
- 1088
- 01:20:07,440 --> 01:20:08,851
- It will be a moment of pain.
- 1089
- 01:20:11,080 --> 01:20:12,525
- But only a moment.
- 1090
- 01:20:14,040 --> 01:20:15,610
- Only a moment.
- 1091
- 01:20:16,840 --> 01:20:18,080
- And then we shall be home
- 1092
- 01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:21,448
- in the presence of
- our Lord Jesus Christ forever.
- 1093
- 01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:23,490
- You see, in my heart,
- 1094
- 01:20:25,600 --> 01:20:28,760
- I felt that there should be some kind
- of retribution against the Romans
- 1095
- 01:20:28,840 --> 01:20:31,047
- for the crimes that they have committed.
- 1096
- 01:20:34,360 --> 01:20:36,169
- But there can be only one way.
- 1097
- 01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:40,251
- Remember as our Lord spoke from the cross.
- 1098
- 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:48,487
- "Father, forgive them,
- for they know not what they do."
- 1099
- 01:20:51,760 --> 01:20:54,764
- He has also asked us to pray in the same way.
- 1100
- 01:20:56,360 --> 01:20:58,124
- So, let us pray.
- 1101
- 01:21:00,200 --> 01:21:01,520
- - Our Father...
- - Our Father...
- 1102
- 01:21:01,600 --> 01:21:03,080
- ...who art in heaven,
- 1103
- 01:21:03,160 --> 01:21:05,163
- hallowed be thy name,
- 1104
- 01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:11,125
- thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
- on Earth as it is in heaven.
- 1105
- 01:21:11,520 --> 01:21:13,841
- Give us this day our daily bread,
- 1106
- 01:21:15,000 --> 01:21:17,242
- and forgive us our debts
- 1107
- 01:21:19,200 --> 01:21:21,362
- as we forgive our debtors.
- 1108
- 01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:24,560
- And lead us not into temptation,
- 1109
- 01:21:25,400 --> 01:21:27,403
- but deliver us from evil.
- 1110
- 01:21:28,920 --> 01:21:30,570
- Amen.
- 1111
- 01:22:23,400 --> 01:22:25,004
- Please save her.
- 1112
- 01:22:25,680 --> 01:22:26,761
- I can't lose her.
- 1113
- 01:22:28,040 --> 01:22:30,247
- Whatever it takes. Please.
- 1114
- 01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:38,360
- Bring the Greek here. Now!
- 1115
- 01:22:38,440 --> 01:22:39,646
- Yes, sir.
- 1116
- 01:22:49,960 --> 01:22:51,451
- Can you save her?
- 1117
- 01:23:03,080 --> 01:23:04,684
- Quickly, give me your knife.
- 1118
- 01:23:07,720 --> 01:23:09,006
- Now.
- 1119
- 01:23:09,640 --> 01:23:11,360
- Your daughter's chest is filling with blood.
- 1120
- 01:23:11,440 --> 01:23:15,047
- If I do not drain it, she will die.
- Your knife, please.
- 1121
- 01:23:16,800 --> 01:23:18,165
- Thank you.
- 1122
- 01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:27,405
- Give me your hand.
- 1123
- 01:23:27,960 --> 01:23:30,202
- Pen and parchment, please.
- 1124
- 01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:40,806
- You will find Aquila and Priscilla here.
- 1125
- 01:23:41,600 --> 01:23:44,720
- Tell them I sent you here for these things.
- 1126
- 01:23:44,800 --> 01:23:47,451
- And they must be brought back
- to me immediately.
- 1127
- 01:23:49,600 --> 01:23:51,880
- I believe I know what's wrong with her.
- 1128
- 01:23:51,960 --> 01:23:54,480
- It is a sickness I've seen once before
- on the island of Rhodes,
- 1129
- 01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:57,291
- but there is much to do
- to try and save her life now.
- 1130
- 01:24:00,680 --> 01:24:02,842
- You are trusting me with your daughter's life
- 1131
- 01:24:05,120 --> 01:24:07,805
- just as I am trusting you
- with the lives you see there.
- 1132
- 01:24:09,720 --> 01:24:11,211
- Go now.
- 1133
- 01:24:23,320 --> 01:24:25,288
- No, there is no more bread.
- 1134
- 01:24:32,080 --> 01:24:34,481
- Open the door!
- I need to speak to Aquila and Priscilla!
- 1135
- 01:24:36,320 --> 01:24:37,685
- Take the children.
- 1136
- 01:24:38,080 --> 01:24:39,081
- Go, go, go.
- 1137
- 01:24:39,400 --> 01:24:40,925
- Okay.
- 1138
- 01:24:41,840 --> 01:24:43,410
- Open the door! Please!
- 1139
- 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:48,003
- Please! Open!
- 1140
- 01:24:52,440 --> 01:24:53,726
- Are you Aquila?
- 1141
- 01:25:08,760 --> 01:25:10,490
- I'm looking for Aquila and Priscilla.
- 1142
- 01:25:15,760 --> 01:25:17,728
- - Where's Aquila?
- - I'm Aquila.
- 1143
- 01:25:19,200 --> 01:25:20,320
- Luke sent me.
- 1144
- 01:25:20,400 --> 01:25:22,289
- - Luke sent you?
- - Yes.
- 1145
- 01:25:22,600 --> 01:25:24,250
- I need your help, please.
- 1146
- 01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:29,441
- My daughter is dying. Please. Please.
- 1147
- 01:28:49,360 --> 01:28:50,920
- The Greek is alive.
- 1148
- 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:52,604
- Praise God.
- 1149
- 01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:55,130
- Because of him, my daughter lives.
- 1150
- 01:28:55,840 --> 01:28:57,843
- He didn't have to save her.
- 1151
- 01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:03,771
- He sent me to a place for supplies.
- 1152
- 01:29:04,680 --> 01:29:07,331
- It was full of your people hiding out.
- 1153
- 01:29:09,440 --> 01:29:11,840
- He knew I could report them,
- 1154
- 01:29:11,920 --> 01:29:14,207
- have them all thrown into the circus today.
- 1155
- 01:29:18,280 --> 01:29:19,805
- I am grateful.
- 1156
- 01:29:22,120 --> 01:29:24,771
- My wife, my daughter are grateful.
- 1157
- 01:29:26,560 --> 01:29:29,131
- I only hope it has shown you something true.
- 1158
- 01:29:34,200 --> 01:29:36,407
- I am sorry for Nero's circus.
- 1159
- 01:29:39,920 --> 01:29:42,491
- I am sorry your people died today.
- 1160
- 01:29:51,400 --> 01:29:52,731
- Have you ever been sailing?
- 1161
- 01:29:54,240 --> 01:29:55,571
- Yes.
- 1162
- 01:29:55,880 --> 01:29:59,646
- Imagine yourself looking out
- at the vast sea before you.
- 1163
- 01:30:01,080 --> 01:30:03,845
- You reach down, and you put
- a hand into the water,
- 1164
- 01:30:03,960 --> 01:30:06,122
- and you scoop it up towards you.
- 1165
- 01:30:07,000 --> 01:30:10,080
- Immediately, the water starts
- leaking through your fingers
- 1166
- 01:30:10,160 --> 01:30:13,005
- until the hand is empty.
- 1167
- 01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:16,327
- That water is a man's life.
- 1168
- 01:30:17,360 --> 01:30:18,440
- From birth to death,
- 1169
- 01:30:18,520 --> 01:30:22,605
- it is always slipping through
- our hands until it is gone.
- 1170
- 01:30:24,160 --> 01:30:27,289
- Along with all that
- you hold dear in this world.
- 1171
- 01:30:29,280 --> 01:30:31,601
- And yet the kingdom I speak of,
- 1172
- 01:30:33,240 --> 01:30:34,810
- that I live for,
- 1173
- 01:30:36,720 --> 01:30:39,803
- is like the rest of the water out in the sea.
- 1174
- 01:30:40,760 --> 01:30:45,800
- Man lives for that cup of water
- that slips through his fingers.
- 1175
- 01:30:48,640 --> 01:30:50,961
- But those that follow Jesus Christ
- 1176
- 01:30:52,400 --> 01:30:55,245
- live for that endless expanse of sea.
- 1177
- 01:31:02,360 --> 01:31:04,522
- What if, after all this,
- 1178
- 01:31:05,560 --> 01:31:07,927
- I still do not believe in your Christ?
- 1179
- 01:31:08,160 --> 01:31:10,003
- I wasn't trying to convince you.
- 1180
- 01:31:15,240 --> 01:31:16,685
- Listen to me.
- 1181
- 01:31:17,600 --> 01:31:19,409
- There's only a moment.
- 1182
- 01:31:19,760 --> 01:31:21,285
- It's not me.
- 1183
- 01:31:22,160 --> 01:31:26,000
- It is Christ himself that looks upon you
- and shatters your defenses.
- 1184
- 01:31:26,080 --> 01:31:30,927
- And in that moment, you will understand
- that you are completely known by God
- 1185
- 01:31:33,080 --> 01:31:34,844
- and you are completely loved.
- 1186
- 01:31:39,560 --> 01:31:42,405
- I will pray that moment comes for you.
- 1187
- 01:32:18,400 --> 01:32:22,769
- I think I would like a walk
- to enjoy this sun.
- 1188
- 01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:25,605
- Of course.
- 1189
- 01:32:26,480 --> 01:32:28,084
- You saved his daughter.
- 1190
- 01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:32,168
- They will know us by our love.
- 1191
- 01:32:33,040 --> 01:32:34,405
- This is the Way.
- 1192
- 01:32:36,120 --> 01:32:39,090
- I heard the cheers of the crowd
- from the Roman's house.
- 1193
- 01:32:39,920 --> 01:32:43,083
- I shall not forget their faces
- for as long as I live.
- 1194
- 01:32:43,960 --> 01:32:48,409
- Trumpets would have sounded
- loudest when they arrived home.
- 1195
- 01:32:49,080 --> 01:32:51,287
- A mighty celebration was held today.
- 1196
- 01:32:52,160 --> 01:32:54,242
- A mighty celebration.
- 1197
- 01:32:55,720 --> 01:32:58,769
- If we live, we live for the Lord.
- 1198
- 01:32:59,120 --> 01:33:01,248
- If we die, we die for the Lord.
- 1199
- 01:33:01,480 --> 01:33:05,724
- Whether we live or die,
- we belong to the Lord.
- 1200
- 01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:07,651
- That's brilliant.
- 1201
- 01:33:08,600 --> 01:33:10,204
- I now have an ending.
- 1202
- 01:33:10,680 --> 01:33:12,200
- Listen to this. "For two whole years,
- 1203
- 01:33:12,280 --> 01:33:15,520
- "Paul stayed there in Rome
- in his own rented villa."
- 1204
- 01:33:15,600 --> 01:33:17,523
- No. "House."
- 1205
- 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:20,127
- "And welcomed all who came to see him.
- 1206
- 01:33:20,240 --> 01:33:21,800
- "He proclaimed the kingdom of God
- 1207
- 01:33:21,880 --> 01:33:25,282
- "and taught about our Lord
- Jesus Christ with all boldness
- 1208
- 01:33:25,760 --> 01:33:27,560
- "and without hindrance."
- 1209
- 01:33:27,640 --> 01:33:31,201
- There. That should make you sound good.
- 1210
- 01:33:32,120 --> 01:33:33,929
- What of my second arrest?
- 1211
- 01:33:35,160 --> 01:33:37,680
- Of the trial at the Forum, of Nero's verdict,
- 1212
- 01:33:37,760 --> 01:33:40,843
- of the darkness of my cell?
- 1213
- 01:33:42,840 --> 01:33:44,840
- I have begun my telling of these events
- 1214
- 01:33:44,920 --> 01:33:47,400
- with Jesus' proclamation to his followers
- 1215
- 01:33:48,280 --> 01:33:52,365
- to bear witness for him in Jerusalem
- and to the ends of the Earth.
- 1216
- 01:33:52,480 --> 01:33:55,689
- And the story that began
- in Jerusalem 30 years ago
- 1217
- 01:33:56,160 --> 01:33:58,163
- has now come to Rome.
- 1218
- 01:34:01,880 --> 01:34:03,723
- So, this is the end.
- 1219
- 01:34:10,440 --> 01:34:12,761
- And yet death is only the beginning.
- 1220
- 01:34:13,600 --> 01:34:17,207
- We will meet again on a new road.
- Of that I am certain.
- 1221
- 01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:21,327
- To live is Christ,
- 1222
- 01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:25,890
- to die is gain.
- 1223
- 01:34:29,760 --> 01:34:31,683
- I like that one.
- 1224
- 01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:35,610
- Write it down.
- 1225
- 01:34:42,320 --> 01:34:43,731
- We're doing well.
- 1226
- 01:34:44,040 --> 01:34:45,920
- Over a hundred copies so far.
- 1227
- 01:34:46,000 --> 01:34:49,891
- We will take these with us out of Rome
- and bring them to all the communities.
- 1228
- 01:34:50,400 --> 01:34:52,323
- It will help many people.
- 1229
- 01:35:04,040 --> 01:35:06,043
- Thank you. Thank you.
- 1230
- 01:35:09,160 --> 01:35:10,161
- Luke.
- 1231
- 01:35:10,440 --> 01:35:11,800
- What will you do?
- 1232
- 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:13,450
- I can't abandon Paul now.
- 1233
- 01:35:14,080 --> 01:35:15,120
- Once we're gone,
- 1234
- 01:35:15,200 --> 01:35:17,520
- I can't guarantee your safe exit from Rome.
- 1235
- 01:35:17,600 --> 01:35:19,807
- Aquila, you've already done more than enough.
- 1236
- 01:35:20,560 --> 01:35:23,848
- I feel that my finishing this work
- is most important.
- 1237
- 01:35:24,520 --> 01:35:27,410
- I guess there are some things
- in life worth risking.
- 1238
- 01:35:29,960 --> 01:35:31,451
- I shall miss you both.
- 1239
- 01:35:33,800 --> 01:35:36,280
- Here. Paul has asked that you would make sure
- 1240
- 01:35:36,360 --> 01:35:38,240
- this letter reaches Timothy immediately.
- 1241
- 01:35:38,320 --> 01:35:40,120
- Of course. Of course.
- 1242
- 01:35:40,200 --> 01:35:41,611
- Do not be afraid.
- 1243
- 01:35:50,040 --> 01:35:53,328
- "To Timothy, my dear son.
- 1244
- 01:35:55,320 --> 01:35:59,883
- "Grace, mercy, and peace from God the Father
- 1245
- 01:36:00,240 --> 01:36:03,130
- "and Christ Jesus our Lord.
- 1246
- 01:36:11,840 --> 01:36:15,845
- "Remember Jesus Christ,
- raised from the dead,
- 1247
- 01:36:16,400 --> 01:36:18,323
- "descended from David.
- 1248
- 01:36:23,360 --> 01:36:27,080
- "Do not be ashamed
- of the testimony about our Lord
- 1249
- 01:36:27,160 --> 01:36:29,481
- "or of me, his prisoner.
- 1250
- 01:36:30,680 --> 01:36:34,731
- "Rather, join with me
- in suffering for the Gospel.
- 1251
- 01:36:34,880 --> 01:36:37,281
- "By the power of God,
- 1252
- 01:36:38,040 --> 01:36:40,486
- "he has saved us
- 1253
- 01:36:41,040 --> 01:36:43,880
- "and called us to a holy life.
- 1254
- 01:36:43,960 --> 01:36:46,360
- "Not because of anything we have done,
- 1255
- 01:36:46,440 --> 01:36:50,331
- "but because of his own purpose and grace.
- 1256
- 01:36:52,360 --> 01:36:54,727
- "This is my Gospel,

- 01:36:55,520 --> 01:36:57,120

- "But God's word is not chained.
- 1260
